"Dumplings" (2004). Something more recent for a change. This Hong Kong film tells the story of the relationship between two women: one seeking to regain her youthful looks, the other with an unusual means of doing just that. It's the titular dumplings, you see -- but whatever is in them? It's a testament to this film that the answer is hinted at and suggested pretty much from the get go, without hurting the pacing or the plot. "Dumplings" also manages to somehow be sexy as well as gag-inducing. 7/10
