Documentary - The Best Chef in the World
I Sold the French Laundry. Then It Became "The Best Restaurant in the World." | Op-Docs
As a filmmaker and entrepreneur, I had always admired and studied the chef Thomas Keller, a walking pinnacle of craftsmanship, refinement and success — my father’s kind of guy. I had only recently learned about Ms. Schmitt, a pioneer of the Napa Valley culinary scene and the creator of the French Laundry, the restaurant Mr. Keller made world-famous. Talking to Ms. Schmitt that morning, I learned she held a different kind of wisdom: that success may have other definitions.
Ms. Schmitt died on March 5, 2022. But in "The Best Chef in the World," she shares with delightfully coy candor a message about the rewards of balance and the trap of ambition. I made this film for all of us who struggle “to stir and taste the soup” that already sits in front of us. Perhaps with time and Ms. Schmitt’s example, we will.

作為一名電影製作人和企業家,我一直欽佩和研究廚師托馬斯凱勒,他是手工藝、精緻和成功的巔峰——我父親的那種人。我最近才了解到施密特女士,她是納帕谷烹飪界的先驅,也是凱勒先生享譽世界的法國洗衣店的創造者。那天早上與施密特女士交談時,我了解到她持有另一種智慧:成功可能有其他定義。
施密特女士於 2022 年 3 月 5 日去世。但在“世界上最好的廚師”中,她以令人愉快的靦腆坦率分享了關於平衡的回報和野心陷阱的信息。我為我們所有努力“攪拌和品嚐湯”的人製作了這部電影。也許隨著時間的推移和施密特女士的榜樣,我們會的。Ben Proudfoot
