Juliette Binoche excels as a chef in this year's undoubtedly most gastronomical film that earned Tran Anh Hung the Best Director award in Cannes.
The year is 1885, and at a French chateau, Dodin (Benoît Magimel), a top chef and the country's foremost gourmand, resides. However, it is Eugénie (Binoche) who takes charge of the household's cooking, executing his whims and ideas with precision. Their harmonious partnership simmers beyond the pots and pans, where Dodin has spent many years attempting to take their romantic life to the altar. Magimel and Binoche (a real-life couple for several years) shine together in this subtle love drama where the greatest love is proclaimed for French cuisine. The Taste of Things is, in fact, culinary poetry that makes classics in the gastronomical genre feel low-cal in comparison. Bon appétit! France's submission for the Oscars.
