Il gusto delle cose

There is charm and delicacy here and Magimel and Binoche perform impeccably...

...a very nice and sweet movie...

The love of food and romance are viewed as all one singular desire for everything beautiful and fleeting in life.

Inevitably, food is also an essential part of the film, and rarely has cooking and its resultant concoctions been so evocatively presented in any art form.

The film doesn’t strain for meaning or metaphor, instead just showing us the events over a certain period and allowing us to sample and chew over them as we would heaving plate of delicious food.

...deliciously subversive tale of later life love.

Tran Anh Hung's culinary romance is so vividly and lovingly made, you’ll swear you can smell and taste every shot.
