A Little More Shock to Bottle Shock than Expected

I know I said I wouldn't touch the subject of the new Alan Rickman film Bottle Shock until I'd actually seen it, but I just came across an article in the Connecticut Post that was too fascinating not to mention. It uses the film as a starting off point, then sort-of branches out to explain the tremendous liberties apparently taken by Hollywood to doll the plot line up. If nothing else, the review in the Post is a great history lesson on how the story of the Paris tastings in the 70's actually went down. It also pointed out something that I didn't know until today, which is that another film on the subject is slated to be filmed later this year - this one a definitive, authorized version of the events based on a book by George M. Taber titled "Judgement of Paris.
