Did some searching online (Amazon.com: meat animals food Cooking Food & Wine Books, Page 2) and still didn't find anything like the book I want to write.

Andrew Zimmern looks like he might have something though. This could be a mammal-only meat eating guide. I'm sure he skipped human, the Most Dangerous Game! Since it's only 24 pages long for readers 9-12, I don't think it's the same thing either though. :)

Angel A vs Girl on the Bridge

It's a French foreign movie shot in black and white.  The story centers around a man and a woman who meet on the same bridge, both about to commit suicide.  The woman jumps, the man jumps in after her and saves her.  The woman is a nympho and the man is penniless, failing at his trade.  They realize that they are each missing a piece of themselves and that their new companion is that missing piece.  Together, they succeed as the man's ambitions are filled and the woman's emotional needs are met.  They part ways, but realize they were meant to be together.  They search for each other and find themselves again on a bridge, where they come together and live happily ever after.

That is TWO DIFFERENT MOVIES.

In Angel-A, the man is an indebted olive oil manufacturer and the woman is his guardian angel.
In The Girl On The Bridge, the man is a failing knife thrower and the woman is a depressed nymphomaniac.




So anyway, the Girl on the Bridge sounds better, but isn't.  It's a two star.  Angel-A on the other hand gets bonus for the little sci-fi/fantasy angel.  Three out of four for Angel-A (which is supposed to be Angela, the girl's name).
