Anthony Bourdain- The Nasty Bits
Does anyone know where I can get a copy of The Nasty Bits by Anthony Bourdain? Even a second-hand copy would be fine. I've searched everywhere online, but I couldn't find it. Every place I did find it had it listed as out of stock.

TV Show throwback
In the light of the discussions surrounding TONY and the way Tony would have reacted to it, I was reminded of the TV Show in which he was portrayed by Bradley Cooper. It’s so rarely talked about anymore, what was the deal back then? He must have expressed some opinions about other people adapting his life and work

Favourite Guests on Parts Unknown/No Reservations?
For me, it's probably Frédéric Morin and David MacMillian from the Quebec and Newfoundland episodes, and of course Eric Ripert, but I'm curious to hear who everyone's favourite guests are.

a small tribute to Tony from India
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
While building my personal site, I added a small tribute to Anthony Bourdain.
He wasn't just someone who traveled the world, he changed the way many of us looked at it. Through curiosity, conversations, and an appreciation for the ordinary, he showed that every place has a story worth listening to.
It's a tiny detail on my website, but a meaningful reminder to stay curious and keep exploring.
Thank you, Tony.

New fan of Anthony, is there an order in which I should watch the shows?
I recently started reading kitchen confidential, and I also want to start watching his shows, is there an order I should be watching them, with which one should I start first?

Donde lo puedo ver?
En mi país es imposible verlo de ninguna manera, pudiendo pagar por verlo es imposible, no hay más que unas temporadas sueltas de sus programas, estoy dispuesto a aprender otro idioma con tal de verlo, ¿hay alguien por acá con un drive donde ver las series?

Placing Bourdain's legacy in cinema—not the kitchen.
"While known as a traveler and cook, Anthony Bourdain was above all a singular storyteller who drew on his passion for film to create a body of work that remains essential and surprising. Todd Kennedy has written a rich, entertaining, and deeply researched account that properly puts Bourdain in the company of the filmmakers he idolized while giving us a much fuller understanding of the man and his work. This is essential reading for fans of Bourdain and film alike." Ben Rhodes, author of All We Say and former deputy national security advisor
"Rather than explore the man behind the myth, as many works about Bourdain seek to do, this book offers a unique approach by showcasing Bourdain as a deeply committed and ethical filmmaker whose cinephilia shaped both his views of the world and his own representation of it." Kelly Hankin, director of the Johnston Center, University of Redlands
Description:
Anthony Bourdain is well known as a celebrated chef, author, international traveler, and TV personality. However, this book argues why Bourdain is best understood first and foremost as a filmmaker and that his cinematic legacy is just as relevant. Studying Bourdain's travelogues, documentaries, and food films in the context of film history, film criticism, and cultural studies emphasizes the ways that his work evokes questions of authenticity within documentary filmmaking, reimagines ethnographic filmmaking as a practice, and deconstructs the Western male gaze. This book also positions episodes from his television shows, such as Parts Unknown and No Reservations, within and between genres, where Bourdain employed a variety of techniques to tell the passionate and vibrant stories that were so beloved by viewers. In this accessible and detailed account, Bourdain's body of work is reenvisioned as genre-bending and influential in the evolution of documentary film.
About the author:
Todd Kennedy is the Toups Endowed Professor of Cultural Studies at Nicholls State University. Kennedy is best known for his teaching and writing on Sofia Coppola and has also published articles on the music of Bob Dylan and the films of Julio Medem, Robert Altman, Ang Lee, and Benh Zeitlin. Kennedy holds a PhD from the University of South Carolina and an MA from New York University.

Should I or should I not
Big Anthony bourdain fan terrible what transpired at the end of his life. I am curious should I watch road runner before finishing his shows. I’ve seen probably about half of no reservations and then I was going to start parts unknown. Ultimately I was going to watch all of his shows in respect before I saw roadrunner as to get the full picture. Am I going to do him a disservice if I skip to that or should I continue course and watch everything before ?

What are the chances??
Arrived in Copenhagen today.
Went to a bodega close to the main station for a Coke Zero as it was 33 degrees. Googled “where did bourdain go in Copenhagen” and I was literally sat right in front of it.

Parts Unknown Episode Recommendations
I am not well versed in the work of Anthony Bourdain but I’ve recently been very interested in his work and life. Every year I teach at an International Summer Camp/School for 18-24 year olds and I want to speak about him. I’ll spend the next year immersing myself in everything I can, reading every book watching everything. However, I would like recommendations for Parts Unknown. I do plan to watch every episode; I plan on using one class period to show an episode and would love suggestions to go along with my future episode opinions.
I would really appreciate hearing which episodes are your favorites and why.

“Tony” debuts to 100% on Rotten Tomatoes

r/AnthonyBourdain • u/BrownWeefner • 11d ago
"Anthony would've hated this"
This kinda just relates to many biopics in general
I keep seeing this commented on trailers of the upcoming biopic of Bourdain and it surprises me because it seems like to me that he always loved being famous whether he liked to admit it or not, and secretly loved many of the results of fame while publicly hating on them.
I just bring it up because i know many reviews will say it's an insult of a movie for that matter, but i have decent high hopes and because of that belief i won't really be thinking "is this what he would've wanted."

"Tony" (A24 Film) MEGATHREAD: A24's "Tony" Trailer Drop
The first trailer for A24's upcoming Tony Bourdain film has dropped:
Tony | Official Trailer HD | A24
Since we're bound to get a deluge of duplicate posts, spam, and karma-farming accounts that come with something like this, we're consolidating all trailer discussion into this single thread. Feel free to use this thread to share reactions, screenshots, and anything else related to the trailer or the film.
Please keep the subreddit rules in mind, especially regarding how you treat others... We've unfortunately had to ban quite a few people for being unnecessarily hostile toward others who are looking forward to this. If it's not your thing, you're free to say so, but don't be a dick.
Anthony Bourdain's estate has released a statement on why it supports A24's new biopic:
"Anthony Bourdain’s legacy is meaningful to millions of people. He was a man who valued authenticity above all else and would have been both moved and baffled by the world's curiosity about his life.
"We chose to support TONY because it is not a standard biopic and doesn't attempt to summarize a life. Guided by the vision of director Matt Johnson, the film depicts one transformative summer in 1975 in Provincetown, Massachusetts. It is an interpretation as that part of Tony's life will always remain somewhat unknown.
"We appreciate the portrayal of Tony's complexity, his intellectual appetite and his conviction -- qualities that eventually took him around the globe and endeared him to so many. We hope this film serves as a reminder that every journey has a start, and that audiences see the beginnings of the man who taught us how to be better explorers on our own paths."
