Review: As a French guy in Germany, I felt quite often like Jacky Bonnot in the couple life. This comes as soon as you like more cooking than your girlfriend. The actors are well directed, also by the story, which makes the characters evolve in an interesting way. Both modern and traditional gastronomy are shown as ridiculous in their hype and narrow-mindness. The actor performances are quite simple and basic, but the directing keeps a good rythm and balance between comedy and drama. I got interested into molecular gastronomy. Let's see where there is such a restaurant... | |
