Trần Anh Hùng directs Juliette Binoche, Benoît Magimel and Emmanuel Salinger in this French historical romance film set in 1889 – depicting a romance between a cook and the gourmet she works for.

Yum! The first 45 minutes of this is just the ensemble prepping and cooking an elaborate feast in a grand country kitchen. Could have watched 2 hours of solely that pure sexy culinary ASMR easily. A relaxed romance with lush period details and the ever perfect Juliette Binoche. C’est si bon!
