the filmmaker try to paint the influence of the mondovis and robert parker a a travesty on par with the german occupation of france and the reign of fascism . but they never find a victim in this film . we hear wine maker and critic and distributor bemoan that while the wine industry grow it become increasingly homogeneous . but the film never make a case that this have result in the loss of any good wine or exploitation of any person or culture other than naive wine spectator reader with lot of cash . if they want to pay hundred of dollar for a dull wine and so be it . if this be a film about the diamond trade and where the debeers corporation market domination result in human suffering and the muckraking style might have be appropriate . but a it be it just come off a anti american and anti modernization and anti capitalist . have the filmmaker be around in the 1870s they most likely would have protest the grafting of american vine in the effort to save french wine .
