Peter Reinhart (American Pie: My Search for the Perfect Pizza) said: "The Legends of Pizza helps us to understand why we all feel so passionate about pizza-- it starts with the passion of those who make it. How can such a simple, humble food elicit such passion? Listen to these interviews and you can feel the love. It's almost as good as eating one of their pizzas (I said almost).." Jeff Ruby (Everybody Loves Pizza) reported: "Nice, thoughtful interviews with three interesting guys...A wonderful document of where pizza is today, where it’s going, and where it’s been.

Pizza! The Movie, A Review by Albert Grande, pizzatherapy.com Pizza! The Movie was an ambitious project to begin with. On the surface making pizza seems simple enough. C'mon you make dough with water, yeast, salt and maybe add some olive oil. Stretch out the dough, throw on a little olive oil, some tomatoes, some cheese and pepperoni or whatever. It's easy. Right? Not so to anyone who has made pizza from the heart, and certainly not for someone who makes a movie with heart about pizza. Pizza! The Movie will not be all things to all people.

He travels the country from end to end searching out snippets and facts about the pizza culture. He interviews Pet...
