It's a happy calm.

It's a happy calm.

Happy calm.

Hit every lens with happy calm.

She came for the pasta.

She did get the sauce.

She got the sauce.

And she learns to be a chef in Italy.

She like realizes her inner chef and she learned, real Halle Bailey, real life, learned from the Iron Chefs, which is a thing that I don't know what they are, but she does.

It's a very big...

Huge show, Iron Chef.

There we go, so she trained with them, learned how to chop like a chef, and look like she knows what she's doing as a chef, and she's very passionate about food in real life, so she's into her cooking, and the character's really into cooking, and so you're meant to fall in love with a few things in this film, like the lead couple, like you live vicariously through them, and you're meant to fall in love with the landscape, Tuscany, otherwise known as Tuscany to everyone else, and you're meant to fall in love with the food, and the food is incredible, and I think...

A couple of days into filming, we had like, you know, the props department were doing an alright job with the food.

And there was, typically as Italian chefs are, they tend to be very disapproving men.

They're lovely and very generous and loving.

And so we're shooting in a real restaurant and the guy whose restaurant it is is watching and looking at the movie food and just slowly dying.

And then he offered to step in for a second.
