Yummy!
A delicious black comedy examing the self-righteousness of the political and the politically correct.
A must see
Absolutely fantastic film which discusses the consequences of actions and moral dilemmas with hard-hitting reality.
The main characters are postgraduate students who enjoy having a guest at their supper table on sundays, with whom they will discuss various issues.

One of the most original plot ideas of the 90s translates into a sharp national mickey-take from on boob tube. Five big-hearted graduate students accidentally kill an ultra-conservative-wing dinner guest, then go by to belief 'what if you'd had the opportunity to put an end to Hitler?' and 'what if you could really make a conversion, preferably than objective buying subhuman-friendly mascara?' They choose up a array of dinner parties with local extremists, and soon the lanuginose-minded liberals are losing their woolliness in a strikingly mean (and utterly fascistic) way. Pokes as much jollity at the PC brigade as at the right-wingers themselves.

Last Supper, The
"...A socially relevant exaggeration....[With] eager discussion, snappy humor and affecting sentiment..."
