Top 10 wine movies

Speaking of Sideways, W. Blake Gray of the San Francisco Chronicle has a list of the "Top 10 Wine Movies", based on the best movies that feature wine, but not necessarily the best movies about wine (hopefully the upcoming movie "Bottle Shock", about the so-called "Judgment of Paris" tasting in 1976 between American and French wines, will join Sideways in the latter category).

In no particular order:

1) "Casablanca" (1942)

2) "Dr. No" (1962)

3) "French Kiss" (1995)

4) "Gigi" (1958)

5) "Killer Bees" (1974)

6) "The Muppet Movie" (1979)

7) "Notorious" (1946)

8) "Sideways" (2004)

9) "Silence of the Lambs" (1991)

10) "The Earth is Mine" (1959)

Runners-up included:

1) "An Affair to Remember" (1957)

2) "Blood and Wine" (1996)

3) "Disclosure" (1994)

4) "Dracula" (1931)

5) "The Godfather" (1972)

6) "Mondovino" (2004)

7) "The Parent Trap" (1998)

8) "Seconds" (1966)

9) "Sex, Lies and Videotape" (1989)

10) "Star Trek: Nemesis" (2002)

11) "They Knew What They Wanted" (1940)

12) "The Unholy Wife" (1957)

13) "A Walk in the Clouds" (1995)

14) "Year of the Comet" (1992)

Of course, Gray came up with this list before the release of the hands-down greatest wine (& cheese) movie of all time:

Ratatouille

Do you want some popcorn with that '61 Latour?
