In this article we study the beginning of gastronomic cinema as a cinematographic genre, although it is the subject of controversy, considering a long period that covers almost four decades, since 1973, when La Grande Bouffé (The Great Feast) appeared, the film considered the inaugural of the genre. gastronomic cinema, until 2010 when the genre was consolidated and a great rivalry was observed between European and American producers and directors. A documentary research was carried out to analyze the contributions that various researchers have made on the subject. This bibliographic review synthesizes the research results and establishes the state of the art. In that period (1973-2010) there was strong competition in the film industry, which ended with the imposition of the supremacy of American cinematography in the production of films of the genre. The evolution of the gender was verified, both in its quantitative and qualitative aspects, as well as the responsible factors that explain US hegemony.

Keywords : género cinematográfico; gastronomía; cine gastronómico; alimentación y cine; movie theater; gastronomy; gastronomic cinema; kitchen and cinema.
