Sensory film by director Tran Anh Hùng set in 19th-century France, depicting the blossoming romance between the cook Eugenie (Juliette Binoche) and the gourmet Dodin (Benoit Magimel). Inspired by a 1924 novel, the film explores the world of French gastronomy in 1885. Winner of the directing prize at Cannes and also the French Oscar submission.
Destined to be remembered as one of the great films about the meaning, texture, and experience of food, this sumptuous, exceptionally well-crafted work, set in France in 1885, stars Juliette Binoche and Benoît Magimel as Eugénie, a cook, and Dodin, the gourmet chef she has been working with for twenty years. As they reach middle age, they can no longer deny their mutual romantic feelings, which have so long been concentrated in their passionate professionalism. This simple narrative sets the table for a sublime, sense-heightening exploration of pleasure, in which the play of sunlight across a late-afternoon kitchen is as meaningful as the image of a perfectly poached pear or the crisp of a buoyant vol-au-vent.
