Movie Review: 'Kitchen Stories'

By Kenneth Turan

Published February 19, 2004 at 10:00 PM MST

The new film Kitchen Stories opens in New York and Los Angeles theaters Friday. It's a Swedish-language film, but critics say its comic look at a Swedish study on kitchen efficiency will translate into any language. Los Angeles Times film critic Kenneth Turan has a review.
