    I don't know why this got so many pans; I thought it was hilarious. Did anyone else see it?

    I have passed it up so many times on Netflix-I'll give it a try.

    Not a realistic portrayal of Butter Sculpting, this movie does not respect the tradition of sculptors like Norma Duffy Lyon or others who have molded butter for society.

    The film's pervasive air of smugness and condescension seems to have turned a lot of people off. As Rolling Stone's Peter Travers says: "Butter wishes it were a Christopher Guest sendup but comes off like a cheap imitation."

    Believe it or not, on another forum I found reference to a movie called "Toast".
    It looks very interesting.

    Huh. I'd heard of Nigel Slater's memoir, did not know it had been filmed.
