Entitlement and the Food Industry in 'The Menu'
'The Menu' has a strong story. The 5 acts, which are defined by the courses, are an excellent subversion of the classic 5-act film structure.
The Apartment
In a dilapidated apartment, lives intertwine: a lonely, voyeuristic landlady, college student Wan Li, and a provocatively dressed female tenant. Wan Li rents the place for privacy with his ambivalent girlfriend, who later falls for his visiting junior. Ironically, while kissing her, the junior fantasizes about Wan Li himself—sparking a tangled web of unspoken desire and fractured loyalties.
