I would like to get in touch with an expert in Japanese cuisine expert
to do a fan commentary track for one of my favorite movies.

(If you don't know what they are, a fan commentary track is where one
or more people record an mp3 while watching a movie that can be played
back by other people while watching the movie.)

I'm interested in doing a fan commentary track for Juzo Itami's movie
_Tampopo_, a comedy that uses the story of a young widow struggling to
keep her ramen noodle business going as a device to examine how food
and other aspects of Japanese culture are intertwined. I would like
to talk about certain aspects of the movie's cinematography, the
actors, relationships to other movies--but I realized that I know next
to nothing about all the various food dishes prepared over the course
of the movie.

So, I am looking for someone who knows all about those dishes and can
discuss the film with me on the commentary track. Not only would it
make a great commentary, but I would be able to satisfy my own
curiosity about some of those dishes.

The process I am envisioning is that you (the Japanese cuisine expert)
would watch the movie once or twice (if you haven't already) to
prepare (perhaps taking notes about what you will say at particular
scenes). Then we would arrange a time when I would call you on Skype
(either to Skype on your computer, or to your regular phone, whichever
is easier) and we would start the movie playing in our respective
locations at exactly the same time and talk about it. I would record
the call, then upload the completed commentary to one of the fan
commentary sites so that people could download it and listen to it
with the movie.

If this interests you, or you have questions, please contact me.
