There are an awful lot of Starbucks coffee shops around the globe, and attempting to visit each one is a goal that some might describe as foolhardy (at best). But don't tell that to the singularly-monikered Winter, who is the star and focus of the quirky documentary Starbucking. A eccentric young man with a drive that borders on obsessive, Winter has spent 10 years consuming coffee at every Starbucks in the world (and writing about it on his blog), and in the course of Nebraska-based filmmaker Bill Tangeman's documentary, he downs what appears to be several troughs' worth of the brew while espousing his theories on life and global harmony. From the standpoint of sheer spectacle, the sight of Winter guzzling coffee is eye-raising but not quite on par with Morgan Spurlock's self-abuse in Super Size Me (and the movie ultimately says little about the coffee chain's rampant growth), but Tangeman's amusing direction tempers the repetitive aspects of Winter's mission. The DVD includes commentary by Winter and Tangeman, as well as deleted scenes. -- Paul Gaita
Product Description
Follow the bizarre story of Winter, a man who has dedicated his life to visiting every Starbucks in the world. Discover the unlikely motivation behind his seemingly pointless and impossible mission. Learn how this near obsession has driven Winter to more than 6,000 Starbucks (and counting) since 1997.
