garlic, Sicilian pistachios, black truffle and parmesan — and other ingredients, as no plate was as simple as the menu indicated. There was chard and hedgehog mushrooms, yellow edible flow-ers and chives. The gnocchi had been sautéed, which turned the Yukon golds more golden and gave the pasta a welcome firm-ness and texture to match the woodsy shaved truffles. The pre-sentation was beautiful in a black earthenware bowl. Surprisingly, flavors didn’t leap from the bowl. Despite the Perigord truffles, the dish was mellow and refined, but each ingredient was evident, central to creating a harmonious whole.

The Schmitz Ranch lamb loin ($41) featured several gener-ous pieces of rare lamb with tiny braised artichoke hearts, eggplant, morels and sea beans, seasoned with Lebanese seven spice. The seared meat was firm but tender, savory but not gamey, and spiced just enough to add a dimension of flavor.

One dessert was crazy good. The kung fu tea chocolate ($12) is served inside a glass filled with soft chocolate ganache, tea ice cream, poached Asian pear and chocolate dacquoise cake. The dessert comes on a small wood tray with a tea pot filled with liquefied chocolate that was then poured into the glass. Chocolate over chocolate over chocolate over pear, what’s not to like? As a bonus, there was a white choco-late wafer imprinted with a kick-ing Bruce Lee at his kung fu best.

Chef Hynn Yam pours liquified chocolate over Madera’s show-stopping dessert, kung fu tea chocolate.

Another dessert, the fraise des bois ($12), was a ring of white chocolate mousse, strawberry sorbet and a yogurt sponge cake surrounding a gentle basil cou-lis. The artistic presentation caused one to pause — but not for long. The dinner tab for two, three-course meals with wine and tip was $378. I returned for lunch because I wanted to see what a $20 ham-burger was like. The oak-grilled Sand Hill burger with white cheddar, lettuce and applewood bacon on a soft bun was about 4 inches thick. Only a starving python could have wrapped his jaws around that burger. It was really good though, and I didn’t need dinner that night. There was a bit of showman-ship pulling into the Rosewood Sand Hill Hotel with Teslas, Porsches and Ferraris lined up, but there’s no pretension inside Madera, just pleasant ambiance, great food and a staff eager to please. While prices were high, they were not absurdly so for Michelin-star quality. V

Go big and go home‘COLOSSAL’ SPINS A WILD FABLE FOR WAYWARD ADULTS

1/2 (Aquarius)

COURTESY OF NEON

Jason Sudeikis and Anne Hathaway star in “Colossal.”

Sign up today at MountainViewOnline.com

Late last year, the film “A Monster Calls” wove a psycho-logically instructive tale, about — and primarily for — children, in which a monster served as a conduit for troubling emotions. Spanish writer-director Nacho Vigalondo’s new film “Colossal” serves as the grown-up edition of “A Monster Calls” by using a deliberately juvenile premise to speak to adults who need to grow up already and address the issues holding them back.

There’s an irony in that the majority of modern moviego-ers resemble the characters of “Colossal” — it takes a giant creature to engage their emotion-al intelligence. Anne Hathaway plays Gloria, a callous, selfish blackout-drunk Manhattanite who, in the film’s opening min-utes, forfeits her boyfriend (Dan Stevens) and Soho apartment with her last-straw behavior. Glo-ria returns to her sleepy home-town, moves into her parents’ vacant house, and immediately runs into her old schoolmate Oscar (Jason Sudeikis).

It’s immediately clear that

Oscar always had a thing for Gloria, which now manifests in his lavishing her with attention, gifts and favors, like a job at the bar he owns and operates. It’s also possible that he’s his own business’s best patron, so he and Gloria bond over post-shift drinking bouts in the company of Oscar’s loyal barflies Joel (Austin Stowell) and Garth (Tim Blake Nelson). In one moment of unsparing honesty, Oscar remarks of day-to-day reality, “It’s hard not to get bored. I mean, there are ways, but none of them are healthy.”

These romantic-comedic goings on share real estate with a world-shaking event: the appear-ance of a giant, devil-horned creature on the coast of Seoul, South Korea. Gloria discovers that she’s linked to this mon-ster — let’s just say it’s her spirit animal — of which Garth notes, “It keeps moving, destroying everything in its path, but it never looks down.” And so we find ourselves, with Gloria, neck deep in an allegory of id. You can hope and pray otherwise, but

your inner demons will always come out.

Vigalondo’s story allows him to explore 31 flavors of male and female entitlement, including self-loathing, addictive person-alities and their post-bender regrets; the insecurities, like neediness and jealousy, behind bullying, domestic abuse, and other relational reckless endan-germent; the apocalyptic damage wrought by unaddressed issues, including addiction; and the helplessness of enablers.

“Colossal” makes a left turn from a romantic-comedy (admit-tedly a dark-tinged one) into something that’s two-thirds psy-chodrama and one-third kaiju movie. In other words, it’s pleas-ingly weird, and a great choice for a star like Hathaway, who can now relax after having bagged her Oscar trophy. Ultimately, Vigalondo spies some hope for the broken, that they can channel their rage, for at least a bit more good than evil. V

Rated R for language. One hour, 50 minutes.

— Peter Canavese

FRANTZ 1/2François Ozon plunges into the depths of the human heart and mind in his post-World War I drama “Frantz.” Based on the 1932 film “Broken Lullaby,” the story takes place mostly in Quedlinburg, Germany as Europe continues to reel from World War I, with nationalism just

another word for hatred of the so-called enemy. And so, when a Frenchman named Adrien (Pierre Niney) begins frequenting the grave of a fallen German soldier named Frantz, he unearths freshly buried resentments. When Frantz’s erstwhile fiancee Anna (Paula Beer) spots Adrien leaving flowers on Frantz’s sadly empty plot, a not-quite-placeable dread begins to rise in her. Soon, Adrien enters into the lives of Anna and Frantz’s parents. He explains that he was a bosom friend to Frantz (portrayed in flashbacks by

Anton von Lucke) in Paris, when Frantz was stationed there, but there’s obviously more to his story than meets the eye. Of course, certain truths about Frantz and Adrien will come out, further complicating the burgeoning relationships between Adrien and Anna, and Adrien and Frantz’s parents. “Frantz” unfolds at a stately pace, with a controlled mood fostered by psychologically incisive performances all around. Rated PG-13 for thematic elements including brief war violence. One hour, 53 minutes. — P.C.
