As Valentine's Day rears it's ugly head once again, Vintage Cinema Rewind celebrates with Mexico's most sizzling flick: Like Water for Chocolate! When a young woman is denied a chance at happiness thanks to the burdens of tradition, she instead channels her passions into cooking. But the stars haven't just conspired against her and her love, they seem to be actively trying to force them apart. Can she find a way to return to her paramour's arms, despite all the sneering mothers, revolutions and mental institutions (this movie is a rip) trying to keep them apart? Or will the only water in this chocolate be from tears?   Where to watch: Like Water for Chocolate - watch streaming online

B. Cox reviews Common's classic sixth album Be as it turns 20. In light of the commercial failure and mixed critical reviews, Common found some common ground in aligning with fellow Chicago hip-hop royalty Kanye West and his GOOD Music imprint on Geffen Record. A former pupil of No. ID, who produced the majority of Common's second and third albums (Resurrection and One Day It'll All Make Sense, respectively), West proved to be a good match to get Common back on tracks and back to his hip-hop roots in the Windy City.Largely solely produced by West (with minor assists from J. Dilla, James Poyser and Karriem Riggins), Common showcased in depth lyricism marked by poignant stories about life in Chicago and themes of the streets, love, feminism, ambition and knowledge of self. Joined by collaborators such as The Last Poets, John Mayer along with label mate John Legend and West himself, the album was a well layered effort that served towards Common's strengths.The album featured many singles, highlighted by "The Corner", "Go!" and "Testify". The album was Common's 2nd album to be certified gold and is often thought to be his "comeback album". It is also regarded along with Like Water For Chocolate as his best work.Visit The Vault Classic Music Reviews Onlinewww.vaultclassicpod.comBuy Exclusive The Vault Podcast Merchandise!www.vaultclassicpod.com/storeSupport The Vault Classic Music Reviews on Buy Me A Coffeehttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/vaultclassicpodBuild Your Own Amazing Podcast Website In Less Than 5 Minutes!https://www.podpage.com/?via=ivecre8Show NotesOkayPlayer: Common's 'Be' Getting 20th Anniversary Re-Release with 11 New Trackshttps://www.okayplayer.com/common-be-20th-anniversarySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-vault-classic-music-reviews-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Cox returns with a look back at Common's landmark fourth album, Like Water For Chocolate as it turns 25.After his breakthrough sophomore album 1994's Resurrection and his acclaimed third album 1997's One Day It'll All Make Sense, the Chicago emcee picked up his roots and moved to New York City and linked up with Questlove, The Roots and other creatives who were working within the Electric Lady Studios. There he collaborated with the aforementioned, D'Angelo, super producer DJ Premier, musicians such as keyboardist James Poyser, famed bass player Pino Palladino and horn legend Roy Hargrove among others.

In this episode I talk about a movie, “Like Water For Chocolate” and how I realized how much my life resembles the main plot of the movie. In this movie the last daughter of her mother has to spend her time in service of the mother until the mother dies. She isn't allowed to have a life of her own. SOUND FAMILIAR?!? #movie #favorite #life #review #mylife #mylifestory #marriage #tradition #single #mother #sacrifice #mysacrifice

This gem from 1992 REALLY HOLDS UP. Allow Kimberly to remind you why this entertaining novel--built around a matriarchal, domestic romance during the Mexican Revolution--was such a bestseller. With a weird number of funny and PRACTICAL digressions, the lecture celebrates this part-soap-opera (think Jane the Virgin!), part-cookbook (try a recipe!), part-send-up and part-family-saga.

Remember the popular internet series VERZUZ? During the pandemic, the VERZUZ series became very popular. The event would pit one artist versus another artist. Each artist would play/perform their catalog in competition versus another artist.  Well…what happens when you take one artist and have a competition between two albums that they created? We decided to launch a versus series of our own on The 12Kyle Podcast.  The 2nd podcast episode of the series is from Common.  Which is the better album from Common? Like Water for Chocolate or Be ? On this episode, Rodes stops by and we debate the albums based on the CRITERIA that we established. Tune in!  AUDIO https://linktr.ee/12kyle YOUTUBE https://youtu.be/FuRfohotrO4

We continue Spanish-Language Film Month with an adaptation of a Laura Esquivel novel that challenges notions on familial responsibility, mother/daughter relationships, and more through magical realism and food: Like Water for Chocolate. 80's TV Ladies' Susan Lambert Hatem and Dark Destinations' Father Malone join the episode to talk about the film's history, its unfortunate connection to Miramax, and indie film of the 90s. Starring Lumi Cavazos as Tita, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery and self-reliance as she experiences a tumultuous life in early 1900s Mexico. Forced to take care of her mother due to her being the youngest child, the film chronicles her life and her yearning for love and affection from an unobtainable source all the while she infuses her cooking with her emotions.

This was the first album that was released from the group called The Soulquarians which includes The Roots, D'Angelo, Erykah Badu, Common and Jill Scott amongst others. This album would be the first of The Roots albums to go Gold and then would go platinum in 2013, as well as win them a Grammy for You Got Me featuring Erykah Badu and Eve co-writing by a then unknown Jill Scott. The album also was nominated for Rap Album of the Year at The Grammy's losing to Eminem's The Slim Shady LP. This album not only was in correlation with Erykah Badu and D'Angelo's most well known albums but also Common's Like Water For Chocolate. Check out this classic album by this legendary group. Thank you The Roots for everything you have contributed to hip hop more specifically this classic album. Thank you, and thank you for listening to this episode of hip hop history. Have a great day.

There is a reason this group is introduced as The Legendary, it's because they are in fact legendary. The Roots have one of the best emcees of all time, one of the most incredible drummers to ever pick up sticks, who also happens to be one of the most musically knowledgable human beings to ever exist. Black Thought the emcee and Questlove the drummer went to high school in Philadelphia together and also busked on the street together. They have over the years created one of the only live musician hip hop bands. These two behemoths, with their bandmates, have went on to back musicians of all genres, become the Late Night With Jimmy Fallon band, authors, directors, actors, screenplay writers and so much more. They are also the creators of the Soul Aquarians and heavily produced the D'Angelo VooDoo album, Erykah Badu's Mama's Gun, Common's Like Water For Chocolate, and The Roots' Things Fall Apart amongst other projects. Check out a brief history on The Legendary Roots Crew, and why they had to change the groups name from The Square Roots. Check us out on Instagram @HipHopHistoryPod.

Joby Talbot is the only living composer to have written the music for three full-length ballets for The Royal Ballet in London. In this sixth episode of Composing Myself Wise Music CEO and Creative Director Dave Holley and Gill Graham catch up with the genre-bending maestro to talk about his “horrible” jobs before he became a composer (Night shift at the local mortuary! Laundry at a mental institution!), working with Nigel Godrich and their close professional bond, the key differences between composing for animations versus live action projects, the culinary genesis of the Like Water For Chocolate ballet score, and the upside-down sensibility of composing for choreography - “you're trying to give a platform for the choreographer and the dancers to do their thing, without knowing what that thing is”. -----http://www.jobytalbot.comhttps://www.instagram.com/jobytalbotmusic/-----Joby Talbot was born in London in 1971. He studied composition privately with Brian Elias and at Royal Holloway and Bedford New College, before completing a Master of Music (Composition) at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama under Simon Bainbridge.Talbot's diverse catalogue includes full-length narrative ballets (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland , 2011; The Winter's Tale, 2014) and contemporary dance works (Chroma, 2007); small- and large-scale choral and vocal works (The Wishing Tree, 2002; Path of Miracles, 2005; A Sheen of Dew on Flowers, 2019); orchestral pieces (Sneaker Wave, 2004; Chacony in G Minor, 2011; Worlds, Stars, Systems, Infinity, 2012); concerti (Desolation Wilderness, 2006; Ink Dark Moon, 2018); and scores for the screen (The Lodger, 1999; The Dying Swan, 2002; Vampyr, 2018).Talbot's critically acclaimed first opera, Everest, was given its premiere in 2015 by The Dallas Opera. His second opera based on the true story The Diving Bell and The Butterfly, a further collaboration with librettist Gene Sheer, premieres in November 2023. Like Water for Chocolate, Talbot's third narrative ballet with Christopher Wheeldon premiered in June 2022 at The Royal Ballet and will be presented by partner commissioner ABT, in March 2023 in Costa Mesa and at the Metropolitan Opera in New York in June 2023.

Tune in to a very chatty episode on food, nourishment, and magic realism! Juana selected ‘Like Water for Chocolate (Como agua para chocolate)' a novel by Laura Esquivel where food plays an important role in unraveling many of the character's truths. The book is structured with recipes at the start of every chapter, setting the scene for food symbolism in all aspects of life-giving nourishment. Juana and Zi unpack the themes present in this book and share their stories of nostalgic meals and how food represents love, as an important ingredient in ultimate nourishment.

In this episode of Eat My Globe, our host, Simon Majumdar looks at the history of food in cinemafrom the early days of the very first moving pictures, through the days of the silent megastars such as Charlie Chaplin, all the way to the modern movie obsession with “food films” such as “Like Water For Chocolate” and “Big Night.” Oh, and if you want to know why popcorn is so popular, in movie theaters, listen right to the end of the show.

On this week's episode of Titillating Talks with Tiphany, I bring you in on an important conversation about minority women and domestic violence that I am having with my good friend, Maida Garcia.Maida helps me to understand the issue of domestic violence and intimate partner abuse from the lens of the minority community. She explains that too many times when a woman of color reports a domestic abuse crime, her reports go ignored. Likewise, when a woman of color goes missing, her disappearance rarely makes the news. We discuss how cultural views & a lens of privilege often creates an environment where women of color are not seen as victims that need to be helped and supported.October is both Domestic Violence Awareness Month & Hispanic Heritage Month. Now is the time to amplify voices of women of color and shine a light on the problem of domestic violence in their community.The following organizations provide support to women of color:Esperanza United- mobilizes Latinas &Latinx communities to end gender-based violenceNational Domestic violence Hotline- Free, confidential help is only a phone call away 24/7BELatina- News, entertainment, lifestyle for Latina'sWomen of Color Network- Centralizes the voices, wellness, and leadership of women of colorTo celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month and to immerse yourself in the culture, Maida recommends these books:- Like Water For Chocolate by Laura Esquivel-Rain of Gold by Victor Villasenor- The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros-100 years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez-Bless Me Ultima byRudolfo Anaya- Any book written by Isabelle Allende- there are too many good ones to list- Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter by Erika Sanchez-Fat Chance Charlie Vega by Crystal Maldonado-Of Women and Salt by Gabriela Garcia-My Broken Language by Quiara Alegria Hudes- Colonize This by Daisy HernandezVictor Rios Ted TalkPlease contact me and let me know what you think of this episode:DM me on InstagramVisit my websiteJoin the Love & Life Membership communityPurchase #selflove merchandiseLet me know what you thought of this episode:DM me on Instagram: @tiphanyKane Come visit my website: www.tiphanykane.comGet your #Selflove merchandise

Continuing the celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, the ladies partake in some magical realism with the classic Like Water For Chocolate by Laura Esquivel. Taking place during the Mexican revolution, the novel presents life and love in a small family at the very beginning of the 20th century. Spanning a generation, the novel (and subsequent film) depict gender differences, cultural expectations, and familial tradition with a forbidden love story running throughout. It has been decided that Pedro can “get it,” neither lady can pronounce foreign words (please don't hate us), and they may have used a few choice words to describe a certain character (seriously, yeet her into the sun). You can find Like Water For Chocolate on Amazon Instant.

Mark Metcalf and the Off the Rails Crew of Tom Klein, William Krolowitz, and Molly Westenberger are back with another movie review. This week we watched and are reviewing Like Water for Chocolate. It is a 1992 Mexican film that is in the style of magic realism. Check out the trailer here. https://youtu.be/vb2QJvmETL4 Video: https://youtu.be/XXFI_37caf8

Today we are talking about going with the flow. What does it mean to let go and let life lead the way? Let's talk about it. 

It is so easy to hate some of the characters in this book, and we loved doing it. The story is lovely and a big thanks to our Patreon for choosing it for their Author Level Patreon benefit because this is also one of our favorite books of the season. This movie though, is something else. If you've ever wanted to see puffy sleeves and 80's synth inserted into farm chore scenes, then this movie definitely has you covered. If any movie adaptation has deserved a reboot - it might be this one. #RebootsThatNeedToHappen Episode Drink: Mexican Hot Chocolate 3 cups milk of choice 3 tbsp cocoa powder 3 tbsp tbsp granulated sugar Pinch salt 1/4 tsp cinnamon Pinch cayenne pepper 2 oz tequila Instructions To make hot chocolate, add all ingredients except for tequila to a small saucepan. Whisk to combine.  Heat on low until mixture comes to a gentle boil, stirring. Remove from heat. Add tequila and whisk again. Divide into 3 mugs. Top each mug with 1-2 cinnamon marshmallows (instructions on site) or whipped cream.

Erin and Paul review two films about women with supernatural kitchen skills. First: LIKE WATER FOR CHOCOLATE, the 1992 film adaptation of Laura Esquivel's magical-realist novel about a lovelorn turn-of-the-century Mexican woman who pours all her sadness and heartbreak into her cooking; then, SIMPLY IRRESISTIBLE, the 1999 romantic comedy starring Sarah Michelle Gellar as a cook at a struggling restaurant who is transformed overnight into New York's most celebrated chef thanks to the influence of a magical crab. Food that makes everyone cry and then throw up, or food that makes everyone cry and then float in the air: which will prevail? Plus our quick takes on INTERSTELLAR, BIG HERO 6, WHIPLASH and BIRDMAN.
