The Taste of Things (film)

Event information

Peerless cook Eugenie (Juliette Binoche) has worked for the famous gourmet Dodin (Benoît Magimel) for the last 20 years. Bonding over a passion for gastronomy and mutual admiration, their relationship develops into romance and gives rise to delicious dishes that impress even the world’s most illustrious chefs. But Eugenie is fond of her freedom and has never wanted to marry Dodin. So, he decides to do something he has never done before: cook for her. A delectable feast for the senses, THE TASTE OF THINGS is a stunningly beautiful romance that simmers with emotion. The new film from acclaimed director Tràn Anh Hùng is an unmissable cinematic treat.

"There is something refreshingly unconventional about its depiction of the tender, well-worn love between Eugénie and Dodin." **** Wendy Ide, The Guardian

Rated 12A | Screened in French with English subtitles | Running Time 135 min
