Le Goût des autres

The english translation is "It takes all Kinds" but in most places it is referred to as the "Taste of Others" which is an incorrect translation according to Nicolas in comments. Thanks Nicolas.


Anyway, I got a lot out of this movie and HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT to anyone who is reading.

Anne Alvaro is stunning in this movie and before all you fools google her image it is much more than looks I'm talking about =)

Directed by Agnès Jaoui it is a movie that could not be made outside of Europe. Enjoy if you decide to check it out.

Another movie I saw recently which I also recommend but not anywhere near as ferociously is "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead" directed by Sidney Lumet of "Dog Day Afternoon" fame. Another superb performance by Philip Seymour Hoffman. It is not as perfect as the above movie mostly because of the poor ending as opposed to the aboves PERFECT ENDING but still, I thoroughly enjoyed it overall.

"it takes all kind" is the correct translation.
in French, the word "goût" can have different meanings :

1- "taste" for something that is good to eat, to drink, to lick... :)

2- it can be used to describe what people appreciate in life ( for example how they like to wear, cars they like, their habits...)

Sudsta : Usual line is check call the flop but once you deviate and bet here your entire play is perfect. I don't mind leading out in this spot occasionally especially when you have been battling someone and you are getting to know each others game. Good play.

He won an Oscar not long after this, for his bizarre performance in Capote (which I loved)

Tillerman: You don't see any problem with sudsta's preflop call?
