Movie 2011.08.06 - Mostly Martha

German movie about a workaholic chef with a superiority complex who tries to balance her life, career, and a niece who ends up in her care. Sounds strangely familiar? Turns out there's a Hollywood adaptation featuring Catherine Zeta-Jones.


Martha usually only has to contend with picky patrons. When her boss Frida hires free spirit Mario, she got stressed even more. The last straw was when her sister dies in a car accident, and she has to take care of her niece. She starts to bond well with Lina, then the estranged father shows up and brings her Italy. For a happy ending, Maria eventually reconciles with Mario, and with his help, they travel to Italy to bring back Lina. They marry and open their own restaurant.
