Storyline:
Dr. Cross, a psychiatrist, is treating a young woman, Janet Stewart, who is in a coma-state, brought on when she heard loud arguing, went to her window and saw a man strike his wife with a candlestick and kill her. As she comes out of her shock, she recognizes Dr. Cross as the killer. He takes her to his sanitarium and urged by his nurse/lover, Elaine Jordan, gives Janet an overdose of insulin. But he can't bring himself to murder her in cold blood and asks Elaine to get the medicine to save her. She refuses, they argue, and he strangles her. He saves Janet's life, but now faces two murder charges.

This is dramatization of one aspect of the story toldi n George M. Tabor's terrific book, "The Judgement of Paris" about the famous 1976 blind tasting in Paris when California Chardonnay and Cabernet beat some very fine French wines. It isn't really based on the book, just follows the fortunes of one family (Barrett) the makers of Chateau Montelena. While I'm sure there are many true-to-life elements to the family description and I'll bet there was plenty of boxing and sex happening up there, it's not a very complete telling. See the movie for a nice story, mild drama, good acting, beautiful cinematography and a slice of a very interesting story. Then, if you enjoy wine, read the book, which combines a wonderful history of modern California wine-making and several families important to that history with a really exciting story about how one man's persistence led to a tasting that rocked the wine world.

Fine performances by Bill Pullman and Alan Rickman mark this thin-on-plot story of the great wine revolution of 1976, in which unheralded California wines defeated the most famous names in French winemaking. The fine wine of Rickman's frustrated English wineseller in Paris and Pullman's similarly frustrated California vintner aiming for perfection is thinned a bit by a silly love story and a rather conventional father-son rivalry. But the basic story itself is a classic David vs. Goliath plot that makes for entertaining viewing, for wine lovers and for anyone who likes to see the snobs defeated.

What an enjoyable and delightful movie. My friend Debie and I saw it on on whim one Saturday night at the Angelica Theater in Dallas, Texas. Not knowing anything about the movie or what to expect we were pleasantly suprised and delighted with Bottle Shock. Neither one of us are wine snobs - I 'm a beer girl myself - and at first were prepaired for another take on the movie Sideways and it is. However, this movie is better ! We came out of the theater smiling and very glad that we stumbled in to see it. Well done. Mary H.

This movie was a little funny, a little educational, a little drama and a whole-lotta charming! For anyone interested in wine culture, just like drinkning good wine, or are damn proud to be an American this is an interesting movie that sheds some factual light on the French wine insdustry and how those snobs got taken day by a little state I like to call Cali! The move is unique, and story driven. Would have preferred to seen the characters developed a bit more, but the message came across loud and clear. "Bottle Shock" is well worth the price of admission. TWO THUMBS UP IN A CIRCLE

I was expecting to enjoy this film, the previews were fun to watch. I was not expecting "Bottle Shock" to be subtle, brilliant, deeply touching, beautiful, so rich in human behavior, and fun. Randall Miller will be present at the oscars and probably as a long shot, but he deserves an oscar for something; Director, Writer, Editor or Best Film will do, any or all would be fine with me. Alan Rickman, Chris Pine, Bill Pullman, Rachael Taylor, Freddy Rodriguez and Dennis Farina are all welcome to oscars too! This is really ensemble acting at its best, even the smallest of parts are beautifully drawn. (The man with the bowl of guacamole was perfect. His simplicity and humility are heart rending.) The story is all the more enjoyable because it is true. Great film making. by [email protected]
