Dinner Rush
USA | 2000
In New York’s Tribeca, one night at a thriving restaurant turns into a pressure cooker: everything that can go wrong does, and everyone in the room is pushed to the boiling point. From the kitchen to the dining room, from every angle and at every moment, the food stays at the center, and the show must go on despite the chaos.
Director Bob Giraldi, a commercials director and owner of successful New York restaurants, shot the film in his own restaurant, Gigino, and reveals the truth behind the kitchen doors, long before “Boiling Point” and “The Bear.”
Fun fact: Giraldi also directed Michael Jackson’s iconic “Beat It” music video
