Toast: a movie that surely warms your heart and leaves your stomach hungry

Toast is based on Nigel Slater’s autobiography turned into a movie by director S.J Clarkson. This is a British film starred by Freddie Highmore, Helena Bonham Carter, Ken Stott, Oscar Kennedy and others. Written by Lee Hall, the movie is a memoir to one of the formidable food writer, broadcaster and journalist in the U.K. The movie which was released in December 30, 2010 received an award in the Berlin Film Festival last 2011. There are DVD copies of this movie which can also be backed up using Magic DVD Copier to obtain high quality copies for personal use.

The story was based on the15-year-old memory of Nigel Slater played by Freddie Highmore where like any other real life family experiences difficulties and problems. Nigel’s mom cooks the worst food that even cooking canned goods still fail. His father on the other hand does not complain the way his wife cooks. Then Nigel tried cooking for his parents where it turned out well for his dad’s taste buds. But bad came to worst when Nigel’s mom died due to asthma attack along with the endless bickering of his parents.

Then Helena Bonham Carter’s character came into picture as Joan Potter who happened to be the new cleaner of the Slater house and became his step mother. Mrs. Potter seemed to be the villain of the story as Nigel and Joan had this “food battle” to get the attention and affection of Mr. Slater. Things are not good between the two of them so to avoid Mrs. Potter Nigel took a job at a pub’s kitchen. After years, his father died and then Nigel decided to move out and leave his stepmother.

Although the story seem to be very straight-forward the directors and writers managed to keep the flow of the movie smooth with a bit of a humor yet it touches the heart of the audience. It showed how Nigel’s love for food early on in his life despite the chaos that he’s gone through. In the end, whatever happened in the past helped him to be the career person that he is at the present.
