2.5 hours of Eugenie, Dodin, and Pauline cooking and eating without a single acknowledgment of the sheer mass of dishes to wash left to Violette. Justice for Violette

davidehrlichFeb 12, 2024I just love seeing people being masters at their craft The elegance and passion not extruding from a pompous self centered nature but a pure unfiltered enjoyment of dedicating yourself to something as beautiful as cooking The romance is slowly simmering, the setting is…

“May I watch you eat?” Don’t have anything intelligent to say. So many lovely little moments that choked me up effortlessly. Full on cried by the end. Everything cinema can and should be, I think. Unbelievable.

잔잔하게 보기 좋았던 영화 인생을 살면서 한 번이라도 도딘이 유지니를 사랑한 것 처럼 사랑 받을 수 있을 까 항상 자신의 위해 요리 해주던 셰프에게 자신이 요리를 해주며 프로포즈를 한다는 게 너무 로맨틱한 것 같다. 그리고 마지막에 자신이 당신의 와이프였는지 셰프였는지 묻는 유지니에게 셰프라고 대답해주던 도딘. 그녀를 그저 사랑 한 것 뿐 아니라 그녀의 실력을 인정해주고 누군가의 아내보다 훌륭한 셰프였다고 말해주는 남자라니,,
Sophie lovedThe Taste of Things"El descubrimiento de un nuevo plato trae más alegría a la humanidad que el descubrimiento de una nueva estrella." Una oda a la comida y un poema de amor. Preciosa película, simple y estupenda.
simona lovedThe Taste of Thingsbeautiful. i will think about this movie every time i cook an egg for breakfast.

Classical French film all around. At first the story seems underwhelming but there’s a lot of themes here. It’s an incredible story about love, passion, the cycle of seasons and rebirth. If you love food you will definitely like this. Not so entertaining but beautifully made 7
Matt Ortiz lovedThe Taste of ThingsThis movie charms using the nuances and beauty of French cuisine and the tender romance between Dodin and Eugenie. It makes you feel warm and nostalgic no matter what kind of kitchen you were raised in. A nearly perfect story that serves as a new kind of comfort film!
Elena likedThe Taste of ThingsLa passion de Dodin Bouffant « Parce que la gastronomie, c’est la sensualité pure. La sensualité faisant partie de l’amour, quand on apprête tout ça ensemble — la gastronomie, le cinéma, l’amour —, on obtient une symbiose naturelle. »
- Gerben Joustra likedThe Taste of Things
Love good food, but this really goes way too far for me (& initially a bit too slow) and yet I kept watching: The pleasures and the burdens of life, all in one! Worth noting the austere yet rich sounds also contribute significantly.
Eloïse lovedThe Taste of ThingsBenoît Magimel and Juliette Binoche are stunning, the visuals are magnificent... In short, everything in this film is nothing but delicacy and poetry ✨
Cinematic Joshua is "meh" onThe Taste of ThingsAn extremely slow simmer in the pursuit of making exquisite dishes, getting the girls, and showing every single movement in half speed.

There’s life, lived with serenity and purpose and, yes, plenty of money and property, in the lives depicted in Hung’s film. Binoche and Magimel see to it in every scene, with or without utensils.

For all the appetizers, the endless array of main courses and diabetic coma desserts we see dished-up here, Anh Hung Tran gives us a meal that is more overwhelming in its scope than wholly satisfying in its consumption.

Neither the meals depicted nor the viewing experience should be rushed. Time is needed for the ingredients of the film to achieve a simmered state of perfection. Your patience will be rewarded.
