- Hello, Violet.
- Hello Sir.

10
00:02:27,291 --> 00:02:28,916
Have you seen Eugénie?

11
00:02:29,125 --> 00:02:32,958
She is in the vegetable garden,
she chooses the vegetables with Louis.

12
00:02:36,708 --> 00:02:38,375
Is my bath ready?

13
00:02:38,541 --> 00:02:40,666
One more pot and it will be ready.

14
00:02:40,833 --> 00:02:42,083
THANKS.

15
00:03:04,625 --> 00:03:05,666

Violet?

20
00:03:48,375 --> 00:03:49,583
THANKS.

21
00:03:52,833 --> 00:03:54,166
[Dodin] Mmm...

22
00:03:55,125 --> 00:03:57,208
[Dodin] Eugénie, it’s delicious.

23
00:04:06,791 --> 00:04:08,875
Who are you, young girl?

24
00:04:10,458 --> 00:04:14,166
This is Pauline, my niece.
I have to watch it today.

25
00:04:15,875 --> 00:04:18,916
- Please, sit down.
- Thank you, sir.

26
00:04:21,832 --> 00:04:26,541
I advise you to eat it
with the spoon, it changes everything.

28
00:04:46,082 --> 00:04:49,250
Violette, will you come, please?
Are you finished?

29
00:04:49,416 --> 00:04:51,832
Come take over for me, thank you.

30
00:04:55,707 --> 00:04:59,166
- The rack of veal, please.
- [Dodin] Yes.

31
00:05:03,041 --> 00:05:04,041
THANKS.

32
00:05:07,666 --> 00:05:10,750
When you're done,
take care of the crayfish.

33
00:05:10,916 --> 00:05:12,166
It boils.

00:05:13,416 --> 00:05:17,500
[crackling

35
00:05:36,957 --> 00:05:39,541
Here, look,
we're going to put the fish.

36
00:05:43,332 --> 00:05:45,000
[Eugenie] Do you want to help me?

37
00:05:47,500 --> 00:05:50,041
So. Go ahead.

38
00:06:01,916 --> 00:06:03,750
You can put that there.

43
00:07:08,916 --> 00:07:10,916
Can I have the crème fraîche?

44
00:07:14,916 --> 00:07:16,041
[Dodin] Thank you.

45
00:07:19,416 --> 00:07:20,500

Cockscombs.

51
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,790
Violet, filter the butter,
please.

52
00:08:49,958 --> 00:08:51,458
Yes, sir.

Oh...

57
00:09:35,833 --> 00:09:37,540
Pauline, come here.

58
00:09:39,958 --> 00:09:40,958
Sense.

59
00:09:41,875 --> 00:09:43,165
Does it smell good?

60
00:09:43,333 --> 00:09:45,083
- Yes.
- Here, have a taste.

61
00:09:53,750 --> 00:09:55,583
Remember this taste.

62
00:09:55,750 --> 00:09:58,540
It will be necessary to compare, once clarified.

67
00:11:28,750 --> 00:11:30,541
Do you know this sauce?

68
00:11:41,915 --> 00:11:43,040
No.

69
00:11:43,790 --> 00:11:45,625
You recognize
what's inside?

70
00:11:56,790 --> 00:11:58,125
From the rib dish.

71
00:12:01,750 --> 00:12:02,791
Smoked bacon.

72
00:12:07,083 --> 00:12:08,791
Red peppers.

73
00:12:09,791 --> 00:12:10,958
Mushrooms.

74
00:12:14,708 --> 00:12:15,916
Fennel.

75
00:12:16,916 --> 00:12:18,250
Tomato.

76
00:12:19,166 --> 00:12:20,375
Orange.

77
00:12:30,791 --> 00:12:31,875
Wine.

78
00:12:32,083 --> 00:12:33,500
Wine that we flambé.

79
00:12:38,708 --> 00:12:40,958
Parsley. Thyme.

80
00:12:41,165 --> 00:12:42,375
[Pauline] Laurel.

81
00:12:46,333 --> 00:12:47,415
Cumin.

82
00:12:50,165 --> 00:12:51,500
Juniper.

83
00:12:51,958 --> 00:12:53,665
Cloves.

84
00:12:54,208 --> 00:12:55,500
Go on.

85
00:12:56,833 --> 00:12:58,958
That's all, I think.

86
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,958
There is also paprika, cognac.

87
00:13:03,125 --> 00:13:06,000
And to reduce the acidity of the wine,
we add

88
00:13:06,208 --> 00:13:08,833
redcurrant jelly.
There you go,

89
00:13:09,333 --> 00:13:11,916
you know how to make bourguignotte sauce.
Well done.

90
00:13:29,666 --> 00:13:31,541
Amazing, this little one.

91
00:13:32,625 --> 00:13:33,625
Yes.

92
00:13:35,708 --> 00:13:39,333
[water dripping into the pot]

93
00:14:08,750 --> 00:14:10,750
[shudder]

94
00:14:14,250 --> 00:14:15,833
[Eugenie] Here, Violette.

95
00:14:29,958 --> 00:14:31,666
[Eugenie] Wine, please.

96
00:14:32,375 --> 00:14:34,708
[kitchen atmosphere]

97
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,333
[Eugenie] Be careful.

98
00:16:16,291 --> 00:16:17,958
There, you make a well.

99
00:16:21,291 --> 00:16:23,333
And you water...

100
00:16:24,583 --> 00:16:27,083
broth egg whites

101
00:16:27,666 --> 00:16:29,750
to filter impurities.

102
00:16:30,750 --> 00:16:35,000
This is how you will get
a very clear broth.

103
00:16:35,250 --> 00:16:36,250
Hold.

104
00:16:46,250 --> 00:16:47,165
[Dodin] Taste.

105
00:16:49,708 --> 00:16:53,165
[Dodin] Is it different
just now?

106
00:17:01,250 --> 00:17:02,375
Yes.

107
00:17:02,541 --> 00:17:05,500
- The taste is less strong.
- With the clarification,

108
00:17:05,665 --> 00:17:06,958
what you lose in taste,

109
00:17:07,165 --> 00:17:11,708
you win it in color.
Just now the taste was stronger.

110
00:17:11,915 --> 00:17:15,333
As far as I'm concerned,
let's wait for it again.

111
00:17:15,500 --> 00:17:18,125
After all,
Rabaz does a good deed

112
00:17:18,290 --> 00:17:21,165
by assisting
this young mother to give birth.

113
00:17:22,583 --> 00:17:24,500
What do you think, Magot?

114
00:17:24,665 --> 00:17:25,625
Hmm...

115
00:17:25,790 --> 00:17:27,290
And you, Beaubois?

116
00:17:27,458 --> 00:17:30,000
I agree with you, Grimaud.

117
00:17:35,666 --> 00:17:38,875
Man owes it to wine to be
the only animal to drink without thirst.

118
00:17:39,083 --> 00:17:41,375
Wine is the intellectual part
of a meal.

119
00:17:41,541 --> 00:17:44,083
Meat, vegetables,
the material part.

120
00:17:44,291 --> 00:17:47,375
The worst thing is not being hungry,
but not knowing

121
00:17:47,583 --> 00:17:48,500
when we go to eat.

122
00:17:48,666 --> 00:17:50,500
[Grimaud] Ah, there’s Rabaz.

123
00:17:50,708 --> 00:17:55,125
My apologies, my friends.
I had to go home to change.

124
00:17:55,583 --> 00:17:58,708
A pretty little girl
came into the world today.

125
00:17:58,875 --> 00:18:01,208
Waiting for you,
we almost couldn't resist

126
00:18:01,416 --> 00:18:02,250
when consumed.

127
00:18:02,416 --> 00:18:07,500
[Rabaz] Very quickly, the newborn was
thrown greedily on his mother's breast

128
00:18:07,666 --> 00:18:09,458
for his first meal.

129
00:18:09,875 --> 00:18:12,208
It whetted my appetite.

130
00:18:35,083 --> 00:18:36,833
This broth is nothing but sweet.

131
00:18:37,541 --> 00:18:39,166

[whip rubbing
in the pan]

133
00:20:09,416 --> 00:20:10,666
There you go.

134
00:20:14,291 --> 00:20:16,166
[Rabaz] Oh...

135
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,833
[the crackle puff pastry]

136
00:20:46,208 --> 00:20:48,625
What a perfect expression.

137
00:20:48,791 --> 00:20:51,583
[Dodin] A Puligny-Montrachet, my friend.

138
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,083
THANKS.

[she has difficulty breathing]

141
00:21:30,833 --> 00:21:32,541
Are you not feeling well, Eugenie?

142
00:21:35,791 --> 00:21:37,208
[she whispers] It's okay...

143
00:21:38,541 --> 00:21:41,333
It's okay, I...
It's going to be okay.

144
00:21:41,541 --> 00:21:44,125
[someone comes]

145
00:21:49,583 --> 00:21:52,625
Antonin Carême
would have invented the vol-au-vent

146
00:21:52,791 --> 00:21:54,541
by catching a puff pastry

147
00:21:54,750 --> 00:21:56,708
which would have swelled in the oven.

148
00:21:57,208 --> 00:21:59,333
Do you believe this story?

149
00:22:00,041 --> 00:22:02,250
We are not historians.

150
00:22:03,083 --> 00:22:05,541
But we love
good stories. Even invented.

151
00:22:05,750 --> 00:22:07,625
What an extraordinary destiny

152
00:22:07,791 --> 00:22:11,500
for this poor child
abandoned at 8 years old.

153
00:22:11,916 --> 00:22:15,375
Since his death, many kings
came down from their throne.

154
00:22:15,541 --> 00:22:18,375
Lent remained standing.

155
00:22:18,583 --> 00:22:21,458
[Beaubois] And no rival glory
was not imposed.

156
00:22:21,666 --> 00:22:26,291
I imagine this child,
a bundle on his frail shoulder,

157
00:22:26,500 --> 00:22:29,958
his father who abandons him in Paris,
in the midst of the Revolution.

158
00:22:30,125 --> 00:22:32,458
His father told him
not to return

159
00:22:32,666 --> 00:22:35,416
at home,
where there is not enough to eat

160
00:22:35,625 --> 00:22:37,958
for him and his 14 brothers and sisters.

161
00:22:38,166 --> 00:22:41,625
And he never saw his family again

162
00:22:41,791 --> 00:22:45,166
even though he never left Paris
after its abandonment.

163
00:23:20,500 --> 00:23:25,041
[Eugénie] Wait, let's take it slowly.
I'm going to take the other side.

164
00:23:34,125 --> 00:23:36,166
[Eugénie] Was the vol-au-vent good?

165
00:23:36,333 --> 00:23:39,125
It's the best thing
that I have ever eaten.

166
00:23:46,125 --> 00:23:48,250
Finish your vol-au-vent.

167
00:24:28,458 --> 00:24:29,791
[Grimaud] Mmm...

168
00:24:30,666 --> 00:24:32,625
[cutlery clinking]

169
00:24:51,916 --> 00:24:53,458
Do you like it?

170
00:24:55,416 --> 00:24:56,541
Yes.

171
00:24:56,958 --> 00:24:59,333
The flesh of the fish is very soft.

172
00:25:16,250 --> 00:25:17,541
A Clos Vougeot.

173
00:25:18,666 --> 00:25:19,750
Well done, Rabaz.

174
00:25:19,916 --> 00:25:21,375
[Rabaz] Excellent.

175
00:25:26,125 --> 00:25:28,166
[Dodin] Ah, this Rabaz...

176
00:25:32,250 --> 00:25:33,416
Phew!

177
00:25:36,583 --> 00:25:37,583
Hmm!

178
00:25:48,916 --> 00:25:52,166
"God had only made water,
the man made the wine.”

179
00:25:52,333 --> 00:25:53,625
He's good.

180
00:25:56,250 --> 00:26:00,458
[Grimaud] Let me tell you
a story about Clos Vougeot.

181
00:26:00,625 --> 00:26:03,166
In 1364, Pope Urban V

182
00:26:03,333 --> 00:26:08,041
wanted the papal court
leaves Avignon to return to Rome...

183
00:26:09,333 --> 00:26:10,375
[Grimaud] Oh, my God.

184
00:26:10,541 --> 00:26:13,916
[Dodin] Yes, Grimaud,
every sentence must be suspended

185
00:26:14,083 --> 00:26:15,958
upon the arrival of a turkey with truffles.

186
00:26:16,125 --> 00:26:19,208
Now, this is just a rack of veal
fried Choisy.

187
00:26:21,541 --> 00:26:24,166
[Grimaud] Petrarch wrote it,

188
00:26:24,333 --> 00:26:27,500
the cardinals
did not want to leave Avignon.

189
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,958
They saw themselves leading a miserable life
without Burgundy wines.

190
00:26:32,166 --> 00:26:34,666
The resistance was such

191
00:26:34,833 --> 00:26:38,708
that the pope had to threaten
to excommunicate the abbot of Cîteaux,

192
00:26:38,875 --> 00:26:40,291
Jean de Bussieres,

193
00:26:40,458 --> 00:26:45,125
if he did not stop supplying
Avignon in Clos Vougeot.

194
00:26:46,708 --> 00:26:48,750
On the death of Urban V,

195
00:26:49,208 --> 00:26:51,833
his successor, Gregory XI,

196
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:56,041
rushed to cancel
the threat of excommunication

197
00:26:56,208 --> 00:26:59,750
to receive again
from Clos Vougeot to his court.

198
00:27:04,625 --> 00:27:05,708
[Dodin] Mmm...

199
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:17,041
Mmm...

200
00:27:18,083 --> 00:27:20,250
[swifts cries]

201
00:28:22,500 --> 00:28:23,583
Violet.

202
00:28:24,958 --> 00:28:26,000
Hold.

203
00:28:36,375 --> 00:28:37,541
[Grimaud] Oh!

204
00:28:43,791 --> 00:28:47,250
- [Grimaud] Impressive.
- [Beaubois] Magnificent.

205
00:28:47,416 --> 00:28:51,166
- [Magot] There's ice cream in it.
- [Grimaud] It's miraculous.

206
00:28:51,708 --> 00:28:57,500
[Rabaz] Miraculous, that’s saying a lot.
It's simply a scientific fact.

207
00:28:57,666 --> 00:28:58,875
[Rabaz] But yes,

208
00:28:59,041 --> 00:29:02,458
beaten egg white is an insulator.
- Really ?

209
00:29:02,625 --> 00:29:04,791
[Rabaz] The ice remains frozen.

210
00:29:07,458 --> 00:29:10,125
[Grimaud] Really? I didn't know that.

211
00:29:13,833 --> 00:29:18,208
[Rabaz] He is a physicist,
an American who established this fact,

212
00:29:18,791 --> 00:29:22,416
who gave Balzac the idea
to create this dessert.

213
00:29:22,958 --> 00:29:24,208
[Grimaud] Okay.

214
00:29:25,125 --> 00:29:28,916
Balzac, the chef
of the Grand Hotel.

215
00:29:29,083 --> 00:29:30,250
Oh yes, yes.

216
00:29:30,416 --> 00:29:33,041
- [Grimaud] It was he who created...
- [Rabaz] Absolutely.

217
00:29:33,208 --> 00:29:37,500
- [Grimaud] What does he call that?
- [Rabaz] The Norwegian omelette.

218
00:29:37,666 --> 00:29:38,833
[Grimaud] Okay.

219
00:29:40,583 --> 00:29:42,125
[a clock rings]

220
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,833
[Grimaud] So, finally,
it's a scientific dessert.

221
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:48,708
[Rabaz] In a way.

222
00:29:50,541 --> 00:29:52,416
[birds chirp]

223
00:30:05,166 --> 00:30:07,208
What is it called?

224
00:30:07,625 --> 00:30:10,333
It's a Norwegian omelette.

225
00:30:13,625 --> 00:30:15,625
Why “Norwegian”?

226
00:30:16,166 --> 00:30:17,833
I don't know.

227
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:19,750
[someone comes]

228
00:30:19,916 --> 00:30:21,291
[Grimaud] Eugénie...

229
00:30:21,875 --> 00:30:24,333
Eugenie, thank you!

230
00:30:25,666 --> 00:30:28,875
- It was absolutely wonderful.
- THANKS.

231
00:30:29,041 --> 00:30:30,875
We miss you at the table.

232
00:30:32,833 --> 00:30:35,458
Why are you never
at the table with us?

233
00:30:35,625 --> 00:30:40,208
Dodin, organize yourself so that Eugénie
be with us at the table.

234
00:30:40,375 --> 00:30:42,375
You have to ask Eugénie.

235
00:30:42,541 --> 00:30:46,041
- It's not possible.
- [Magot] I'm sure it does.

236
00:30:46,208 --> 00:30:49,958
Your presence
would be enjoyable for everyone.

237
00:30:50,125 --> 00:30:55,000
To do what I have to do well,
I have to be here, in my kitchen.

238
00:30:56,458 --> 00:30:59,541
No, it's... At the table...

239
00:30:59,708 --> 00:31:03,541
I'm already chatting with you
through what you eat.

240
00:31:05,125 --> 00:31:08,208
And there's nothing you eat
that I don't eat.

241
00:31:08,375 --> 00:31:10,208
Turbot, for example.

242
00:31:11,041 --> 00:31:14,958
I ate it
since he arrived here this morning,

243
00:31:15,125 --> 00:31:16,375
I have it...

244
00:31:16,958 --> 00:31:18,541
hummed.

245
00:31:18,833 --> 00:31:23,375
Returned, caressed every moment
of his presence in this kitchen.

246
00:31:24,250 --> 00:31:27,416
I know its color by heart,

247
00:31:27,583 --> 00:31:32,291
its consistency, even the taste it has
without having bitten into it.

248
00:31:33,416 --> 00:31:37,333
You don't get anything more
of this turbot than I get.

249
00:31:37,500 --> 00:31:40,625
Now, gentlemen,
go to the living room.

250
00:31:40,791 --> 00:31:42,708
Violette will serve you the liqueurs.

251
00:31:42,875 --> 00:31:45,708
[Beaubois] You are an artist.
THANKS.

252
00:31:46,375 --> 00:31:49,125
[Dodin] I have a little surprise
extraordinary.

253
00:31:50,541 --> 00:31:51,791
[Dodin] A marvel.

254
00:31:56,958 --> 00:31:58,375
[she whispers] Violette.

255
00:32:06,166 --> 00:32:09,125
They say you're an artist.
It's true ?

256
00:32:11,250 --> 00:32:13,250
They say anything.

257
00:32:14,291 --> 00:32:15,750
They are telling the truth.

258
00:32:35,500 --> 00:32:38,000
He is an artist.

259
00:32:41,166 --> 00:32:42,416
Who is it ?

260
00:32:42,833 --> 00:32:44,958
His name is Antonin Carême.

261
00:32:45,375 --> 00:32:47,916
Why didn't they
the same hat?

262
00:32:48,291 --> 00:32:51,041
[Eugenie] For Lent,
the cook's hat

263
00:32:51,250 --> 00:32:53,958
evoked a man getting out of bed,

264
00:32:54,208 --> 00:32:58,791
that's why he slipped
inside a cardboard disc.

265
00:32:59,375 --> 00:33:03,125
And this drawing shows
the way he carries it, on the side.

266
00:33:10,375 --> 00:33:11,666
What is there?

267
00:33:16,250 --> 00:33:19,208
Since when have you been doing
the kitchen at the castle?

268
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:21,833
Oh, uh...

269
00:33:22,500 --> 00:33:24,083
Since...

270
00:33:24,666 --> 00:33:26,208
long time.

271
00:33:27,500 --> 00:33:29,916
It's Mr. Dodin
who taught you to cook?

272
00:33:30,125 --> 00:33:34,041
No. I cooked before I knew him.

273
00:33:35,583 --> 00:33:37,583
Who taught you to cook?

274
00:33:38,250 --> 00:33:41,666
My parents. My father
was a great pastry chef in Paris.

275
00:33:41,833 --> 00:33:43,458
Famous, even.

276
00:33:45,208 --> 00:33:49,375
But most of all I learned from my mother,
he wasn't very patient.

277
00:33:49,583 --> 00:33:51,458
Where are your parents?

278
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,416
They are long dead.

279
00:34:04,916 --> 00:34:07,166
What did you feel
at first bite

280
00:34:07,375 --> 00:34:09,333
Norwegian omelette?

281
00:34:11,583 --> 00:34:13,083
[Eugenie laughs]

282
00:34:15,791 --> 00:34:18,458
- I almost cried.
- For what ?

283
00:34:21,125 --> 00:34:22,625
I don't know.

284
00:34:24,208 --> 00:34:27,291
You've already cried
while eating something?

285
00:34:27,791 --> 00:34:29,000
No.

286
00:34:31,500 --> 00:34:33,333
What do you think happened?

287
00:34:35,750 --> 00:34:37,291
I don't know.

288
00:34:39,125 --> 00:34:40,750
You know what?

289
00:34:40,916 --> 00:34:44,291
Auguste Escoffier
and a certain César Ritz

290
00:34:44,458 --> 00:34:48,250
are going to open what they call
a palace in Monte-Carlo.

291
00:34:48,416 --> 00:34:52,875
The first hotel establishment
to offer great gastronomy

292
00:34:53,041 --> 00:34:54,375
to its customers.

293
00:34:55,458 --> 00:34:59,541
Escoffier could lose his soul
in such a big place, right?

294
00:35:01,916 --> 00:35:03,583
On the contrary.

295
00:35:03,750 --> 00:35:07,041
This is the place to be
for a man like him.

296
00:35:08,291 --> 00:35:10,750
We live the legacy of Lent,

297
00:35:10,916 --> 00:35:13,833
but Escoffier
makes us dream of the future.

298
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:16,166
To think he's only 38 years old.

299
00:35:16,458 --> 00:35:20,041
And only 13 years separate
the death of Lent

300
00:35:20,208 --> 00:35:22,500
and the birth of Auguste Escoffier.

301
00:35:27,416 --> 00:35:28,625
Gentlemen.

302
00:35:32,958 --> 00:35:36,500
Sir.
My master, the prince of Eurasia,

303
00:35:36,666 --> 00:35:40,375
sent me to ask you to dinner,
with your suite.

304
00:35:40,583 --> 00:35:43,791
Forgive me,
who do you want to speak to?

305
00:35:44,583 --> 00:35:46,833
There is here
four other gentlemen.

306
00:35:50,375 --> 00:35:54,833
I would like to address Mr. Dodin,
the Napoleon of the culinary art.

307
00:35:56,625 --> 00:36:00,250
- How do you know it's me?
- That's not you?

308
00:36:01,916 --> 00:36:05,000
Yes, yes, yes.
Please continue.

309
00:36:06,083 --> 00:36:07,208
Pardon.

310
00:36:08,166 --> 00:36:09,750
I said:

311
00:36:10,333 --> 00:36:14,000
my master, the prince of Eurasia,
passing through the region,

312
00:36:14,166 --> 00:36:18,125
sent me to ask you to dinner
with your suite.

313
00:36:18,958 --> 00:36:22,958
His Highness sent for
his first chef

314
00:36:23,125 --> 00:36:26,291
who will come to collaborate
with the chef hired by the hotel

315
00:36:26,458 --> 00:36:29,416
at his request in order to treat you.

316
00:36:29,958 --> 00:36:32,250
[whispers] No chance
which he accepts.

317
00:36:41,791 --> 00:36:45,958
Please forward to His Highness

318
00:36:48,250 --> 00:36:50,291
that I accept his invitation.

319
00:36:53,083 --> 00:36:55,500
And I thank her warmly.

320
00:36:56,125 --> 00:36:58,791
Consider these four gentlemen
like my suite.

321
00:37:01,708 --> 00:37:04,583
I thank you on behalf of the prince.

322
00:37:04,750 --> 00:37:07,958
From tomorrow, an official invitation
will be brought to you.

323
00:37:09,083 --> 00:37:12,291
Gentlemen,
I wish you a good evening.

324
00:37:16,375 --> 00:37:17,958
The Napoleon...

325
00:37:18,916 --> 00:37:20,500
[bursts of laughter]

326
00:37:22,875 --> 00:37:25,541
We thought
that you would refuse.

327
00:37:25,750 --> 00:37:26,708
Hmm...

328
00:37:30,708 --> 00:37:33,375
I couldn't refuse
this invitation.

329
00:37:33,541 --> 00:37:36,625
It was announced to me a few years ago
days with the prayer of accepting it.

330
00:37:36,833 --> 00:37:40,458
[frogs croaking]
[insect chirping]

331
00:37:42,625 --> 00:37:44,333
[someone sighs]

332
00:37:48,250 --> 00:37:50,291
What do you think of Pauline?

333
00:37:51,041 --> 00:37:52,541
She has something.

334
00:37:52,708 --> 00:37:56,375
It's obvious, she has a gift
for culinary things.

335
00:37:57,666 --> 00:38:00,208
When she tasted
Norwegian omelette,

336
00:38:00,375 --> 00:38:02,666
I thought she was going to cry.

337
00:38:03,166 --> 00:38:05,875
We can have
absolute pitch at three years old,

338
00:38:06,416 --> 00:38:11,375
at five years old decipher a score
like Mozart,

339
00:38:11,541 --> 00:38:14,208
you can't be a gourmet
before 40 years.

340
00:38:14,375 --> 00:38:16,041
[Eugenie] It would be a waste

341
00:38:16,208 --> 00:38:20,208
not to develop a gift
to make it useful to our fellow human beings.

342
00:38:23,833 --> 00:38:25,125
Hm?

343
00:38:25,291 --> 00:38:28,291
- I see you want it.
- Not you?

344
00:38:29,125 --> 00:38:30,916
Obviously, less than you.

345
00:38:37,125 --> 00:38:38,458
[he sighs]

346
00:38:40,958 --> 00:38:44,750
Tomorrow, I will accompany Pauline
and I'll go talk to his parents.

347
00:38:46,875 --> 00:38:48,041
THANKS.

348
00:38:54,375 --> 00:38:58,166
If you allow me, I would like
talk to his parents for you.

349
00:39:00,416 --> 00:39:01,625
If you want.

350
00:39:02,458 --> 00:39:06,166
I'll see her soon,
to invent an exceptional dish.

351
00:39:06,333 --> 00:39:09,500
Ah, the discovery
a new dish...

352
00:39:11,291 --> 00:39:15,083
brings happiness to humanity,
more than the discovery of a star.

353
00:39:15,625 --> 00:39:19,208
[he inhales slowly
to inhale the smoke from his pipe]

354
00:39:36,708 --> 00:39:37,875
Eugenie.

355
00:39:38,750 --> 00:39:41,583
Can I come and knock
at your door this evening?

356
00:39:43,625 --> 00:39:47,125
Since when did you warn
before knocking on my door?

357
00:39:47,625 --> 00:39:48,916
Hit,

358
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,666
and you will see
whether it is open or not.

359
00:39:52,833 --> 00:39:55,708
So, don't close it.

360
00:39:55,875 --> 00:39:57,500
You will see well.

361
00:40:05,125 --> 00:40:06,708
[he sighs]

362
00:40:10,166 --> 00:40:13,833
I ask you again, Eugénie.
Let's get married.

363
00:40:15,541 --> 00:40:18,875
How many more times
are you going to ask me this question?

364
00:40:23,083 --> 00:40:27,333
Once married, I doubt I will be able
still keep my door closed.

365
00:40:27,500 --> 00:40:30,958
We spend more time together
that many spouses

366
00:40:31,125 --> 00:40:35,250
to study texts, recipes,
to make them, to eat them.

367
00:40:36,208 --> 00:40:39,083
You make me laugh
with your witticisms.

368
00:40:39,375 --> 00:40:43,333
So, aren't we
well like that?

369
00:40:46,250 --> 00:40:49,166
There are many witticisms
against marriage.

370
00:40:49,333 --> 00:40:51,375
You might like this one:

371
00:40:52,541 --> 00:40:56,041
"Marriage is a dinner
which starts with dessert."

372
00:40:56,208 --> 00:40:59,041
Oh...what a horror!

373
00:41:01,458 --> 00:41:04,500
Adam and Eve have
started with dessert.

374
00:41:05,500 --> 00:41:06,500
Yes.

375
00:41:10,583 --> 00:41:14,333
It all started
by something they ate.

376
00:41:21,875 --> 00:41:23,875
So the answer is no.

377
00:41:25,250 --> 00:41:27,208
[she laughs]

378
00:42:28,041 --> 00:42:30,500
[someone pours water]

379
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,750
Next Friday, I would like
come and buy a few calves.

380
00:43:25,916 --> 00:43:27,000
[Dodin] Yes.

381
00:43:27,958 --> 00:43:31,916
Friday, I remind you
that you see your banker.

382
00:43:32,083 --> 00:43:35,125
And being your notary,
I will entrust him

383
00:43:35,291 --> 00:43:39,291
some of your titles
of property to put in the safe.

384
00:43:39,458 --> 00:43:43,000
[Dodin] Good. For calves,
I will warn Antonin.

385
00:43:43,166 --> 00:43:44,750
He will receive you in the enclosure.

386
00:43:45,458 --> 00:43:48,041
[Grimaud] I will come too
see these beautiful animals.

387
00:43:48,208 --> 00:43:51,375
[Beaubois] If nothing stops me,
I will be there too.

388
00:43:54,041 --> 00:43:57,583
[Pauline's mother] Ah.
Hello my dear.

389
00:43:57,750 --> 00:43:58,958
[Pauline] Hello.

390
00:44:04,583 --> 00:44:09,041
- [Eugenie] Hello. I'm doing well ?
- Thank you for bringing her home.

391
00:44:09,208 --> 00:44:10,708
- My pleasure.
- That's nice.

392
00:44:10,875 --> 00:44:12,666
Good morning.

393
00:44:12,833 --> 00:44:14,500
- Are you doing well ?
- Thanks very much.

394
00:44:26,833 --> 00:44:28,458
Only six?

395
00:44:33,125 --> 00:44:34,291
[Beaubois] Ah.

396
00:44:37,208 --> 00:44:41,041
The pan is small,
we will cook them as we go.

397
00:44:41,208 --> 00:44:42,375
[Dodin] Ortolans.

398
00:44:42,958 --> 00:44:45,708
Eugénie buys some at the market.

399
00:44:45,875 --> 00:44:48,416
But they are never
as good as here.

400
00:44:48,625 --> 00:44:51,416
[Dodin] Augustin fed them
white millet.

401
00:44:51,583 --> 00:44:54,375
Once they become
fondant balls,

402
00:44:54,583 --> 00:44:57,291
we pluck them without emptying them,
and here they are.

403
00:45:04,708 --> 00:45:07,208
[Augustin] We are approaching, we are approaching.

404
00:45:11,541 --> 00:45:14,375
With your permission,
I will train Pauline.

405
00:45:14,541 --> 00:45:19,083
Mr. Dodin also wishes it.
She has all the makings of a great cook.

406
00:45:22,250 --> 00:45:23,708
[the father] It’s a great honor.

407
00:45:23,875 --> 00:45:28,125
- [the mother] She's still a child.
- This is the best age to learn.

408
00:45:30,416 --> 00:45:35,791
Pauline described your vegetable garden to me.
It's a marvel.

409
00:45:37,875 --> 00:45:42,500
Take the time to think,
my kitchen will always be open to him.

410
00:45:44,208 --> 00:45:45,791
What is this ?

411
00:45:45,958 --> 00:45:49,333
Copper antennas
topped with a zinc crown.

412
00:45:49,500 --> 00:45:51,375
There are some everywhere.

413
00:45:53,208 --> 00:45:55,833
[the father] They are 7 m apart
from each other.

414
00:45:57,833 --> 00:45:59,125
[Eugenie] Amazing.

415
00:46:01,083 --> 00:46:03,375
What are they used for?

416
00:46:03,541 --> 00:46:06,083
To create electric current
under the ground.

417
00:46:06,250 --> 00:46:10,583
It strengthens the plants
and the harvest is better.

418
00:46:13,041 --> 00:46:15,250
- [Eugenie] Really?
- [the father] Yes.

419
00:46:15,416 --> 00:46:21,000
The first year, we experimented
the antennae on this half of the vegetable garden,

420
00:46:21,875 --> 00:46:24,250
The difference is obvious.

421
00:46:25,125 --> 00:46:26,541
[all together] Ah!

422
00:46:36,958 --> 00:46:38,041
Pardon.

423
00:46:40,458 --> 00:46:42,000
Thank you, Augustin.

424
00:46:43,541 --> 00:46:44,791
THANKS.

425
00:46:52,125 --> 00:46:55,208
[they eat]
[sighs of pleasure]

426
00:47:13,708 --> 00:47:16,041
- [Beaubois] Augustin.
- [Dodin] Augustin.

427
00:47:16,208 --> 00:47:18,250
- [Grimaud] Thank you.
- [Beaubois] And the next one?

428
00:47:18,416 --> 00:47:20,666
- I'm going back.
- [Beaubois] Thank you.

429
00:47:39,625 --> 00:47:41,458
Violette, have you seen Eugénie?

430
00:47:41,625 --> 00:47:45,291
She is in her room
since his return from Pauline's.

431
00:48:03,750 --> 00:48:06,333
- Oh, there you are.
- Are you doing well ?

432
00:48:06,500 --> 00:48:07,500
Yes.

433
00:48:08,500 --> 00:48:11,000
I heard you come home,

434
00:48:11,166 --> 00:48:13,625
I was getting ready
to prepare your dinner.

435
00:48:18,583 --> 00:48:20,958
What were the ortolans like?

436
00:48:21,125 --> 00:48:23,750
Violette says you are
stayed in your room.

437
00:48:23,916 --> 00:48:25,625
Yes, it's nothing.

438
00:48:31,125 --> 00:48:34,875
- And then, Pauline's parents?
- Alright.

439
00:48:35,041 --> 00:48:37,125
They accept our proposal?

440
00:48:37,291 --> 00:48:42,333
No, but they are not
against neither.

441
00:48:42,500 --> 00:48:44,625
- They are thinking.
- Oh.

442
00:48:47,250 --> 00:48:49,041
Eugenie, I'm worried.

443
00:48:49,208 --> 00:48:53,041
Wouldn't it be better
that Dr Rabaz examines you?

444
00:48:53,208 --> 00:48:56,666
No, it would be
waste his time.

445
00:48:56,875 --> 00:49:01,208
See no ostentation there,
but allow my mouth officer

446
00:49:01,375 --> 00:49:04,791
gives you reading of the modest meal
that it will be useful to you.

447
00:49:05,416 --> 00:49:08,333
It's always a pleasure
to hear a menu being played.

448
00:49:08,500 --> 00:49:12,833
We can see the construction
of the meal and the chef's intentions.

449
00:49:14,666 --> 00:49:16,541
Please announce, Mr. Officer.

450
00:49:16,708 --> 00:49:19,541
The menu will be composed
of three services.

451
00:49:19,708 --> 00:49:23,416
For the first, the soups will be:
one of pigeon bisque,

452
00:49:23,583 --> 00:49:27,000
one of quail with queen coulis,
one of crayfish.

453
00:49:27,625 --> 00:49:29,750
And the other with stuffed soles.

454
00:49:29,916 --> 00:49:33,250
For the middle dish:
a boar.

455
00:49:33,416 --> 00:49:35,833
At both ends.
A royal pâté.

456
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:39,208
A pheasant terrine
with end of summer truffles.

457
00:49:39,375 --> 00:49:40,791
The hors d’oeuvres will be:

458
00:49:40,958 --> 00:49:45,625
one of partridges
with fine herbs on a spit.

459
00:49:45,833 --> 00:49:50,083
A baby dove.
One of stuffed pike.

460
00:49:50,250 --> 00:49:53,875
The grand starter will be two chickens
stuffed with cream.

461
00:49:54,041 --> 00:49:58,250
Rabbits à la Saingaraz.
And the wines of this first service

462
00:49:58,458 --> 00:50:01,958
will, after the soup,
dry sherry,

463
00:50:02,125 --> 00:50:04,333
and for the white, from Carbonnieux,

464
00:50:04,500 --> 00:50:07,583
of Langon, of Meursault
and Pouilly.

465
00:50:07,916 --> 00:50:12,208
For the red, de la Chaînette,
of Thorins and Saint-Estèphe.

466
00:50:12,375 --> 00:50:13,458
And during

467
00:50:13,666 --> 00:50:16,458
that we will prepare the second service,

468
00:50:16,625 --> 00:50:20,041
we will serve malvasia
of Cyprus and Madeira.

469
00:50:21,583 --> 00:50:24,041
The second service
will be two readings.

470
00:50:24,250 --> 00:50:27,416
Preceding the four roast dishes:

471
00:50:27,583 --> 00:50:30,750
one of monkfish from Lake Geneva
to the vestal,

472
00:50:30,916 --> 00:50:33,583
and the other of torrent trout
with chartreuse.

473
00:50:34,125 --> 00:50:37,708
And the roast dishes will be:
turkey stew,

474
00:50:37,875 --> 00:50:43,041
Dutch-style prime rib,
of veal breast to the pontiff,

475
00:50:43,208 --> 00:50:46,000
accompanied by sweetbreads
in the same way

476
00:50:46,166 --> 00:50:48,500
and dumplings from the same piece.

477
00:50:48,875 --> 00:50:52,500
And a stuffed leg of lamb
cut into thin slices.

478
00:50:52,666 --> 00:50:54,708
There will be three sauces:

479
00:50:54,875 --> 00:50:58,041
prickly, poor man, heavenly blue.

480
00:50:58,875 --> 00:51:03,208
And three salads:
herbs, oranges, olives.

481
00:51:04,208 --> 00:51:08,875
And the hot desserts of this service
to spice up roasts and salads...

482
00:51:09,083 --> 00:51:12,875
The generosity of the prince
turned to the test.

483
00:51:13,041 --> 00:51:15,916
The meal lasted
more than eight hours.

484
00:51:16,750 --> 00:51:20,583
For the prince, a gourmet
should not fear any menu,

485
00:51:20,750 --> 00:51:24,208
should he hold it at the table
one day and one night.

486
00:51:25,166 --> 00:51:28,083
At one point,
at the start of the third service,

487
00:51:28,250 --> 00:51:30,833
my stomach almost gave in.

488
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:35,833
But the discomfort stopped and I was able
continue the meal until the end.

489
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:37,041
And Dodin?

490
00:51:37,208 --> 00:51:41,000
What did he think of it?
I haven't talked to him about it yet.

491
00:51:42,333 --> 00:51:46,000
In summary, Dodin saw
the meal given by the prince

492
00:51:46,166 --> 00:51:48,458
like a bushy construction,

493
00:51:48,625 --> 00:51:51,291
abundant and rich,
but without clarity.

494
00:51:51,500 --> 00:51:53,958
[Beaubois] No air,
point of logic,

495
00:51:55,083 --> 00:51:57,791
custom,
but no rules.

496
00:51:57,958 --> 00:51:59,375
A parade without prescription.

497
00:52:00,291 --> 00:52:02,916
[Beaubois] Marked with mistakes
in succession

498
00:52:03,125 --> 00:52:04,625
tastes and touches.

499
00:52:06,583 --> 00:52:08,458
What did he say about desserts?

500
00:52:09,583 --> 00:52:11,625
He didn't like
that the almond works

501
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:15,208
that require so much attention
come after ice cream,

502
00:52:15,625 --> 00:52:19,625
which paralyze the faculties,
and before the cheeses,

503
00:52:19,833 --> 00:52:21,250
they too frozen,

504
00:52:21,416 --> 00:52:25,458
which leave in the mouth
a mediocre scent.

505
00:52:26,625 --> 00:52:28,166
More precisely, he said:

506
00:52:28,333 --> 00:52:32,500
"Leave in the mouth
a scent of vulgar pomade.”

507
00:52:33,875 --> 00:52:35,750
What was faultless?

508
00:52:35,958 --> 00:52:39,541
The wines. Although the succession
don't be.

509
00:52:39,750 --> 00:52:42,708
[Magot] Cigars,
ratafias, brandies

510
00:52:42,916 --> 00:52:44,583
were beyond reproach.

511
00:52:45,750 --> 00:52:47,583
But when he returned yesterday,

512
00:52:47,750 --> 00:52:50,166
did he have supper
before going to bed?

513
00:52:51,208 --> 00:52:54,875
He didn't want to go to bed
on the memory of this meal.

514
00:52:55,041 --> 00:52:58,916
I served him some gasoline
of Consommé with a poached egg

515
00:52:59,083 --> 00:53:01,000
and a few sprigs of tarragon.

516
00:53:01,166 --> 00:53:03,250
A turkey breast
in a wine jelly

517
00:53:03,416 --> 00:53:05,125
with asparagus fricassee.

518
00:53:05,291 --> 00:53:10,291
He dipped some cookies in
wine, drank a glass of lime blossom with honey

519
00:53:10,458 --> 00:53:11,833
and went to bed.

520
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:13,041
So.

521
00:53:13,625 --> 00:53:15,791
And what is he doing at the moment?

522
00:53:17,541 --> 00:53:18,833
He studies...

523
00:53:19,583 --> 00:53:20,833
a menu.

524
00:53:22,333 --> 00:53:25,083
- To invite the prince?
- Yes.

525
00:53:32,791 --> 00:53:35,416
Eugenie,
we would be grateful to you

526
00:53:35,583 --> 00:53:40,166
if you could let us know
what he intends to serve to the prince.

527
00:53:40,333 --> 00:53:43,375
- Would you like that?
- Yes, obviously.

528
00:53:50,750 --> 00:53:54,375
[Eugenie opens the oven door
and takes out a dish]

529
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:07,000
Good.

530
00:54:11,083 --> 00:54:12,083
Go for it.

531
00:54:13,958 --> 00:54:15,166
[Grimaud] Ah...

532
00:54:20,958 --> 00:54:21,791
Hm?

533
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,125
[birds chirp]

534
00:54:24,291 --> 00:54:26,625
[leaves rustling]

535
00:54:41,125 --> 00:54:42,958
[a cow moos]

536
00:54:45,583 --> 00:54:47,250
Hello, Augustin.

537
00:54:48,625 --> 00:54:50,166
Hello, Eugenie.

538
00:54:53,375 --> 00:54:55,583
It will be a stew.

539
00:54:59,375 --> 00:55:00,916
Are you sure?

540
00:55:01,083 --> 00:55:02,208
A stew?

541
00:55:02,375 --> 00:55:05,750
Yes, he wants to serve
a stew for the prince.

542
00:55:06,958 --> 00:55:07,958
Yes.

543
00:55:10,750 --> 00:55:12,708
We choose the meat

544
00:55:12,875 --> 00:55:15,916
the freshest
and as little bleeding as possible.

545
00:55:16,083 --> 00:55:18,125
We choose it thick.

546
00:55:18,291 --> 00:55:20,916
The tip of the panties
is an excellent piece

547
00:55:21,083 --> 00:55:24,291
for its good weighting
fat and lean.

548
00:55:24,916 --> 00:55:28,875
We don't wash it
in order to keep all its juices.

549
00:55:29,083 --> 00:55:32,250
We string it
after separating the bones

550
00:55:32,416 --> 00:55:34,750
so that it does not deform

551
00:55:34,916 --> 00:55:39,416
and we put it in the pot
with a pint of water per pound of meat.

552
00:55:41,500 --> 00:55:43,125
I can't understand.

553
00:55:45,791 --> 00:55:47,083
[Dodin] Eugenie?

554
00:55:54,500 --> 00:55:55,708
Eugenie?

555
00:55:57,500 --> 00:55:58,666
[he sighs]

556
00:56:03,416 --> 00:56:04,875
[he opens a door]

557
00:56:06,458 --> 00:56:08,625
[snippets of conversations]

558
00:56:14,750 --> 00:56:17,125
- [Dodin] My friends!
- [Grimaud] Ah.

559
00:56:17,291 --> 00:56:20,625
My friends,
haven't you seen Eugénie?

560
00:56:20,791 --> 00:56:23,041
Here, sometimes, but she's gone.

561
00:56:23,208 --> 00:56:27,208
Beaubois, accompanying
our banker, have you met her?

562
00:56:27,375 --> 00:56:28,541
No.

563
00:56:37,541 --> 00:56:39,500
[a cow moos]

564
00:56:39,666 --> 00:56:41,750
[birds chirp]

565
00:57:33,458 --> 00:57:36,083
[conversations, laughter in the distance]

566
00:57:41,333 --> 00:57:42,541
Rabaz!

567
00:57:45,041 --> 00:57:47,666
- Eugenie, what's wrong with you?
- Eh ?

568
00:57:48,500 --> 00:57:50,250
- Are you doing well ?
- Yes.

569
00:57:50,416 --> 00:57:52,458
I fell asleep.

570
00:57:53,125 --> 00:57:55,708
[someone comes running]

571
00:57:56,750 --> 00:57:59,208
Don't move, don't move.

572
00:58:00,166 --> 00:58:02,000
- [Rabaz] What is happening?
- Nothing...

573
00:58:02,166 --> 00:58:03,875
What is happening to you?

574
00:58:04,041 --> 00:58:07,958
- Eugenie?
- I don't know, I fell asleep.

575
00:58:09,291 --> 00:58:11,791
- Asleep?
- Yes.

576
00:58:12,041 --> 00:58:14,125
Ah, friends are here.

577
00:58:14,291 --> 00:58:15,666
Yes, come.

578
00:58:18,625 --> 00:58:19,833
Attention.

579
00:58:21,458 --> 00:58:24,500
[Dodin] Come, I’ll take you.
Lean on me.

580
00:58:25,166 --> 00:58:26,416
Nothing serious.

581
00:58:27,333 --> 00:58:31,250
But you didn't inherit
of your ancestors good health.

582
00:58:32,458 --> 00:58:35,375
I will bring you the medicine
just now.

583
00:58:36,166 --> 00:58:39,166
- How do you feel?
- Alright.

584
00:58:39,333 --> 00:58:42,416
- I won't stay in bed.
- It has to be.

585
00:58:42,583 --> 00:58:45,791
- Listen...
- Be reasonable, stay in bed.

586
00:58:45,958 --> 00:58:50,875
In my field, I am recognized
some skills and I'm a friend.

587
00:58:51,041 --> 00:58:53,833
Give me your trust.
Would you like that?

588
00:58:54,583 --> 00:58:55,625
Yes.

589
00:58:56,208 --> 00:58:57,958
Thank you.

590
00:58:58,125 --> 00:58:59,541
Rest.

591
00:58:59,708 --> 00:59:03,375
[he whispers] I'll take you home
this good doctor and I will come back.

592
00:59:09,958 --> 00:59:12,500
[peacock bellows]

593
00:59:23,875 --> 00:59:25,958
Your broth is delicious.

594
00:59:29,416 --> 00:59:33,041
This will give me the taste
to be served in my room.

595
00:59:33,208 --> 00:59:36,833
As much as you want.
I enjoy preparing for you...

596
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:39,250
You have better things to do.

597
00:59:39,875 --> 00:59:41,416
Violette can do it.

598
00:59:42,166 --> 00:59:43,458
Violet?

599
00:59:44,041 --> 00:59:46,208
She barely knows
boil water.

600
00:59:54,041 --> 00:59:56,833
Despite your smile,
you seem to me...

601
00:59:58,666 --> 00:59:59,875
seriously.

602
01:00:01,291 --> 01:00:02,791
Even serious.

603
01:00:04,375 --> 01:00:06,000
- [Dodin] Yes.
- Hmm.

604
01:00:12,416 --> 01:00:15,000
You are deprived of your witticisms.

605
01:00:18,083 --> 01:00:19,833
What is happening?

606
01:00:28,750 --> 01:00:30,083
When I...

607
01:00:31,833 --> 01:00:34,500
When I found you
in the vegetable garden,

608
01:00:35,666 --> 01:00:37,125
I thought that...

609
01:00:41,500 --> 01:00:43,208
I thought I was going...

610
01:00:43,958 --> 01:00:45,125
die myself.

611
01:00:45,833 --> 01:00:48,250
[she whispers] I feel full of life.

612
01:00:50,458 --> 01:00:52,666
[she whispers] I'm so happy.

613
01:00:55,958 --> 01:00:57,791
[she whispers] And grateful.

614
01:01:01,458 --> 01:01:03,125
I would like...

615
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:06,375
a little more of your broth

616
01:01:06,541 --> 01:01:09,583
if it is not contraindicated
by the good Dr. Rabaz.

617
01:01:10,833 --> 01:01:11,833
Of course.

618
01:01:14,041 --> 01:01:15,125
Of course.

619
01:01:19,583 --> 01:01:23,875
You can send an invitation
to the prince whenever you want.

620
01:01:24,666 --> 01:01:28,833
I'm fit and ready.
Unless you're not.

621
01:01:30,583 --> 01:01:32,416
I have a better idea.

622
01:01:46,916 --> 01:01:49,208
[a peacock cries]

623
01:01:51,125 --> 01:01:53,583

[eggshell cracking]

628
01:05:15,083 --> 01:05:16,166
Violet?

629
01:05:18,541 --> 01:05:19,625
THANKS.

630
01:05:27,791 --> 01:05:29,875

[serving cutlery clinking]

636
01:12:29,666 --> 01:12:31,708
You may remember.

637
01:12:32,375 --> 01:12:33,500
Last year,

638
01:12:33,666 --> 01:12:37,166
I bought three bottles
at London auction.

639
01:12:37,541 --> 01:12:42,250
It’s a Clos d’Ambonnay
from the Krug house, from 1837.

640
01:12:43,250 --> 01:12:46,583
Who has stayed for almost fifty years
at the bottom of the ocean

641
01:12:46,750 --> 01:12:49,041
after the boat sank
who carried

642
01:12:49,208 --> 01:12:52,208
2,000 bottles of champagne
towards the Americas.

643
01:13:10,458 --> 01:13:11,875
Everything is still there.

644
01:13:14,083 --> 01:13:15,458
[she whispers] Thank you.

645
01:13:17,250 --> 01:13:18,500
[she whispers] Thank you.

646
01:13:26,333 --> 01:13:29,083
You allow me
to watch you eat?

647
01:13:30,291 --> 01:13:32,416
[laughing] Yes, if you want.

648
01:14:07,708 --> 01:14:08,791
Mmm...

649
01:14:15,083 --> 01:14:16,166
Mmm...

650
01:14:18,583 --> 01:14:19,791
[he sighs]

651
01:14:23,375 --> 01:14:27,916
An 11th century Chinese poet
obeyed one rule all his life.

652
01:14:28,750 --> 01:14:31,958
He works a whole year
and the year after,

653
01:14:32,125 --> 01:14:34,208
he dedicates it to his wife.

654
01:14:35,166 --> 01:14:37,416
I should have followed his example.

655
01:14:40,375 --> 01:14:42,750
In what you just said,

656
01:14:43,708 --> 01:14:46,083
there are several words
which don't fit.

657
01:14:47,250 --> 01:14:51,125
For example,
you are neither a poet nor a Chinese.

658
01:14:54,833 --> 01:14:56,541
I am not a poet.

659
01:15:03,916 --> 01:15:06,583
The “Napoleon of gastronomy”,

660
01:15:06,791 --> 01:15:08,875
the "prince", the "king"...

661
01:15:10,041 --> 01:15:13,583
And so many other qualifiers,
but not “poet”.

662
01:15:15,750 --> 01:15:17,166
Let's say...

663
01:15:17,708 --> 01:15:18,791
not yet.

664
01:15:22,583 --> 01:15:24,875
Then there is the word “woman”.

665
01:15:33,875 --> 01:15:35,416
I work there.

666
01:15:42,125 --> 01:15:43,416
See you later.

667
01:15:54,166 --> 01:15:55,333
The teeth...

668
01:15:57,250 --> 01:15:59,041
The teeth, yes,

669
01:16:00,458 --> 01:16:02,250
divide food.

670
01:16:05,708 --> 01:16:08,458
And glands of all kinds,

671
01:16:10,000 --> 01:16:13,291
inside the mouth,
moisten them.

672
01:16:16,083 --> 01:16:19,000
And the language jostles them
to mix them

673
01:16:20,375 --> 01:16:23,625
and press them
against the palace for...

674
01:16:25,083 --> 01:16:29,000
express the juice
and savor the taste.

675
01:16:30,791 --> 01:16:35,583
In doing so, it brings together the foods
in the center of the mouth, after which,

676
01:16:36,291 --> 01:16:39,250
leaning
against the lower jaw,

677
01:16:39,416 --> 01:16:41,375
it rises in the middle

678
01:16:41,541 --> 01:16:45,458
so that it forms
at its root a slope

679
01:16:45,625 --> 01:16:48,291
who trains them
in the back of the mouth

680
01:16:48,833 --> 01:16:53,833
where they are received by the pharynx
which, contracting in turn,

681
01:16:54,500 --> 01:16:58,916
makes them enter the esophagus,
whose peristaltic movement...

682
01:16:59,083 --> 01:17:02,000
- [Eugenie laughs]
- ...leads them to the stomach.

683
01:17:04,250 --> 01:17:07,375
But at home, Eugénie,
this activity,

684
01:17:08,333 --> 01:17:09,750
is absolutely beautiful.

685
01:17:09,916 --> 01:17:11,458
[she laughs]

686
01:18:28,500 --> 01:18:29,750
[he blows]

687
01:19:11,458 --> 01:19:13,041
Magnificent.

688
01:19:13,708 --> 01:19:15,333
Be careful.

689
01:19:15,500 --> 01:19:18,916
You present the plate
facing Eugénie, like this.

690
01:19:19,083 --> 01:19:20,541
Yes, sir.

691
01:19:22,041 --> 01:19:23,416
You can go there.

692
01:19:56,125 --> 01:19:57,583
[Eugenie laughs]

693
01:20:12,666 --> 01:20:16,541
Be careful, sir told me
to present the plate like this.

694
01:20:16,708 --> 01:20:18,208
I know, yes.

695
01:20:47,583 --> 01:20:48,583
Ah!

696
01:22:04,750 --> 01:22:05,625
[brouhaha]

697
01:22:05,791 --> 01:22:09,958
[snippets of conversations, chirps,
children are rowdy]

698
01:23:04,083 --> 01:23:05,333
My friends!

699
01:23:06,416 --> 01:23:09,166
- Dear friends...
- [several voices] Ah?

700
01:23:09,458 --> 01:23:13,666
Eugénie and I decided
to unite us in the autumn of our lives.

701
01:23:13,833 --> 01:23:16,541
- [all together] Ah...
- [Pauline] No, not autumn.

702
01:23:16,708 --> 01:23:19,000
Don't go protesting with Pauline.

703
01:23:19,166 --> 01:23:22,333
You don't know anything about autumn,
reassure me.

704
01:23:22,958 --> 01:23:24,333
[laughs]

705
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:29,291
We are in the autumn of our lives
and I say it without melancholy.

706
01:23:30,375 --> 01:23:32,875
We will get married
before the end of autumn.

707
01:23:33,041 --> 01:23:34,708
[all together] Bravo!

708
01:23:42,333 --> 01:23:46,708
Autumn, gold and rain,
is a season of wisdom and good advice.

709
01:23:47,500 --> 01:23:50,208
It's also a good season
for gastronomy.

710
01:23:51,041 --> 01:23:54,916
An autumn rose
is much more than just another exquisite.

711
01:23:55,083 --> 01:23:57,000
[several people] Oh...

712
01:23:57,166 --> 01:23:59,625
[they applaud]

713
01:24:01,416 --> 01:24:07,250
In the fall, the harvest brings
the fresh winds, the game, the cheerfulness.

714
01:24:07,416 --> 01:24:11,416
There are chestnuts, artichokes,
Chasselas, pears.

715
01:24:11,583 --> 01:24:16,000
While the quail, the becfigue,
the corncrake leaves us,

716
01:24:16,166 --> 01:24:19,208
we see the woodpigeon,
woodcock, duck,

717
01:24:20,208 --> 01:24:23,291
arrive from the end of the world
to provoke our appetite.

718
01:24:23,458 --> 01:24:24,791
[laughs]

719
01:24:24,958 --> 01:24:28,166
The tide, for its part,
reassures oneself from fear

720
01:24:28,625 --> 01:24:30,583
what the summer heat was causing him.

721
01:24:30,750 --> 01:24:33,416
Normandy is harvesting
with sticks.

722
01:24:33,583 --> 01:24:38,041
The pippin embellishes
and varies our desserts.

723
01:24:38,500 --> 01:24:40,958
In autumn, we start
to dine in the light

724
01:24:41,125 --> 01:24:45,083
and we dine longer,
with more pleasure and cheerfulness.

725
01:24:46,083 --> 01:24:49,166
Wild ducks and geese
pass from North to South.

726
01:24:50,500 --> 01:24:53,208
Autumn is the transition
frugal summer

727
01:24:53,375 --> 01:24:55,916
towards solid enjoyments
of winter.

728
01:25:00,083 --> 01:25:02,750
Eugenie, let's unite in the fall

729
01:25:03,458 --> 01:25:06,750
to welcome winter together
and its rejoicings.

730
01:25:07,666 --> 01:25:09,291
[several people] Bravo!

731
01:25:14,750 --> 01:25:15,875
[a man] Well done!

732
01:25:18,291 --> 01:25:20,916
[Eugénie] The guests were happy,
I believe.

733
01:25:21,625 --> 01:25:25,333
[Dodin] We are lucky
to meet such nice people.

734
01:25:28,458 --> 01:25:32,000
“We are in the fall
of our lives", you say.

735
01:25:32,500 --> 01:25:35,125
- Speak for yourself.
- [Dodin laughs]

736
01:25:35,708 --> 01:25:37,625
I feel like I'm in the middle of summer.

737
01:25:38,625 --> 01:25:41,791
And when I leave,
it will still be summer.

738
01:25:42,125 --> 01:25:43,458
I love summer.

739
01:25:44,500 --> 01:25:46,208
Don't you?

740
01:25:46,375 --> 01:25:48,500
I love all seasons.

741
01:25:48,666 --> 01:25:52,583
The first drops of rain,
the first snowflakes.

742
01:25:52,750 --> 01:25:56,125
The first fireplace fires,
the first buds.

743
01:25:57,208 --> 01:26:01,291
All these first things
who come back every year delight me.

744
01:26:01,458 --> 01:26:03,666
But summer, sun,...

745
01:26:04,208 --> 01:26:05,375
Oh...

746
01:26:06,875 --> 01:26:11,000
I love this burn,
I need this burn

747
01:26:11,583 --> 01:26:13,041
in my body.

748
01:26:13,750 --> 01:26:16,875
It's like these embers
that I use every day.

749
01:26:17,708 --> 01:26:19,125
[Dodin] I understand.

750
01:26:36,541 --> 01:26:37,833
[chuckle]

751
01:26:40,708 --> 01:26:44,666
But come in, it's also
your room now.

752
01:27:26,125 --> 01:27:27,541
[someone comes]

753
01:27:31,750 --> 01:27:33,416
[clears his throat]

754
01:27:33,708 --> 01:27:35,916
So... there you go.

755
01:27:36,750 --> 01:27:41,375
"Menu of the meal offered to His Highness
royal, the crown prince of Eurasia.

756
01:27:42,416 --> 01:27:44,625
Treats before the soup.

757
01:27:47,541 --> 01:27:50,208
Eugénie Chatagne's soup.

758
01:27:51,625 --> 01:27:54,166
Brillat-Savarin’s fried foods.

759
01:27:54,333 --> 01:27:56,333
Dodin's stew.

760
01:27:57,000 --> 01:27:58,666
Soubise puree.

761
01:27:58,958 --> 01:28:00,375
Desserts.

762
01:28:00,541 --> 01:28:04,500
White wines from the Coteaux de Dézaley
and Château-grillet.

763
01:28:05,416 --> 01:28:09,583
Red wines from Châteauneuf-du-Pape
and Séguret de Chambolle."

764
01:28:10,125 --> 01:28:11,125
There you go.

765
01:28:16,458 --> 01:28:17,541
And that's all?

766
01:28:17,708 --> 01:28:18,708
Yes.

767
01:28:22,250 --> 01:28:23,666
Hmm...

768
01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:26,791
It's...

769
01:28:28,708 --> 01:28:31,333
It's a bit, how should I put it?

770
01:28:32,500 --> 01:28:34,250
I hesitate between the word...

771
01:28:35,083 --> 01:28:36,333
"risky"

772
01:28:37,208 --> 01:28:40,333
and... "bold".

773
01:28:42,083 --> 01:28:43,250
[Dodin] Go for “bold.”

774
01:28:43,416 --> 01:28:47,166
Such a meager menu
that he would not even have composed

775
01:28:47,333 --> 01:28:50,291
the first service
of the prince's ordinary.

776
01:28:52,125 --> 01:28:53,375
And then...

777
01:28:54,958 --> 01:28:56,875
there is the stew.

778
01:28:58,416 --> 01:29:00,291
I know what you're thinking.

779
01:29:01,583 --> 01:29:03,666
These three little words
have a vulgar sound,

780
01:29:03,833 --> 01:29:06,541
without glory and perfumed with fat,

781
01:29:08,041 --> 01:29:10,625
But the stew is,
how to say?

782
01:29:10,791 --> 01:29:11,916
So French.

783
01:29:13,833 --> 01:29:17,708
It has crossed the centuries and nourished
many French families.

784
01:29:18,583 --> 01:29:21,958
This is why I take up the bet
to amaze the prince

785
01:29:22,125 --> 01:29:24,958
with a stew of my composition.

786
01:29:25,333 --> 01:29:27,458
With your help, of course.

787
01:29:29,833 --> 01:29:30,958
THANKS.

788
01:29:38,375 --> 01:29:40,250
It doesn't scare me.

789
01:29:43,333 --> 01:29:44,583
And you ?

790
01:29:44,750 --> 01:29:46,750
Do you feel me faltering?

791
01:29:48,250 --> 01:29:50,791
- Yes.
- Why would I be afraid?

792
01:29:56,416 --> 01:29:57,458
Eugenie?

793
01:29:58,500 --> 01:30:01,541
- [quietly] Take me in your arms.
- Eugenie!

794
01:30:03,208 --> 01:30:05,041
But what do you have? Violet!

795
01:30:05,250 --> 01:30:07,791
You will agree with me,
dear colleague,

796
01:30:07,958 --> 01:30:10,250
that medicine
is not an exact science.

797
01:30:10,416 --> 01:30:14,666
You didn't come to give us
the definition of medicine?

798
01:30:14,833 --> 01:30:18,125
It is nevertheless useful
to understand that there are things

799
01:30:18,291 --> 01:30:22,000
that we ignore
in the current state of our science.

800
01:30:22,333 --> 01:30:25,041
[Dodin] So, we don’t know
what Eugénie is suffering from.

801
01:30:25,208 --> 01:30:26,958
[Dodin] You know nothing!

802
01:30:27,125 --> 01:30:29,041
[Rabaz] We don't know, no.

803
01:30:29,208 --> 01:30:32,333
[Rabaz] We don't even know
if it's serious or not

804
01:30:32,500 --> 01:30:34,875
nor how it can evolve.

805
01:30:35,291 --> 01:30:38,833
[the doctor] It is very possible
that this does not change.

806
01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:42,833
[the doctor] His discomfort could
disappear as they appeared.

807
01:30:43,250 --> 01:30:44,666
[Rabaz] Let’s hope so.

808
01:30:44,833 --> 01:30:47,750
[Dodin] Yes. All of this...

809
01:30:47,916 --> 01:30:49,625
[Eugenie approaches]

810
01:30:54,000 --> 01:30:56,458
- How do you feel?
- GOOD.

811
01:30:56,625 --> 01:30:59,958
No, I'm sorry,
but you are not well.

812
01:31:00,125 --> 01:31:03,625
A few hours ago,
you have failed against me.

813
01:31:03,791 --> 01:31:06,416
I'm worried, you understand?

814
01:31:06,583 --> 01:31:09,250
Sorry for scaring you,

815
01:31:09,416 --> 01:31:12,041
but an hour later,
I was fine.

816
01:31:13,625 --> 01:31:16,708
Thank you
to have come all this way

817
01:31:16,875 --> 01:31:20,333
to come and give
a colleague's opinion to Dr Rabaz.

818
01:31:20,500 --> 01:31:23,625
You will both agree
that I'm fine.

819
01:31:24,166 --> 01:31:26,833
It's even embarrassing for me

820
01:31:27,000 --> 01:31:32,458
to know that upon arriving here,
you would see a fit person.

821
01:31:32,625 --> 01:31:35,458
- [quietly] Say something.
- [quietly] What more can I say?

822
01:31:35,625 --> 01:31:36,916
[Dodin loses his temper] I...

823
01:32:18,208 --> 01:32:21,583
This moment
is the best time of the day.

824
01:32:53,458 --> 01:32:54,708
[he blows]

825
01:33:01,833 --> 01:33:02,833
Thank you.

826
01:33:16,875 --> 01:33:20,875
I know I've been worried
unreasonably.

827
01:33:22,458 --> 01:33:23,833
Now,

828
01:33:24,833 --> 01:33:27,291
I am reassured that you have nothing.

829
01:33:34,500 --> 01:33:36,625
[a fly buzzes]

830
01:34:02,916 --> 01:34:05,708
Some of my nights,
you know them

831
01:34:05,875 --> 01:34:08,583
since you share them with me.

832
01:34:11,125 --> 01:34:12,958
But the other nights,

833
01:34:14,208 --> 01:34:16,541
you want to know
what do they look like?

834
01:34:16,708 --> 01:34:18,416
Yes, more than anything.

835
01:34:22,291 --> 01:34:27,250
The nights when my door stays open
for you, they are numerous.

836
01:34:28,125 --> 01:34:30,125
Not as much as I want.

837
01:34:32,000 --> 01:34:35,041
On nights when it's locked,
many too.

838
01:34:35,208 --> 01:34:37,041
Too many.

839
01:34:40,083 --> 01:34:43,041
Many, also,
those nights when...

840
01:34:45,458 --> 01:34:48,208
lying in my bed,
I imagine you

841
01:34:48,375 --> 01:34:51,541
take the route
from your room to mine.

842
01:34:52,625 --> 01:34:54,458
Without making any noise.

843
01:34:54,875 --> 01:34:57,041
And each time, with a beating heart.

844
01:35:03,541 --> 01:35:06,250
The extraordinary
happened twice.

845
01:35:07,750 --> 01:35:08,958
What then?

846
01:35:11,375 --> 01:35:15,333
To imagine yourself leaving
from your room without making any noise.

847
01:35:17,458 --> 01:35:20,166
See you rise
this flight of steps,

848
01:35:20,333 --> 01:35:23,750
then you turn right
and walk along the end of the corridor.

849
01:35:24,583 --> 01:35:26,875
Then you climb
the service staircase

850
01:35:27,041 --> 01:35:31,000
to reach the floor,
you take a few more steps

851
01:35:31,166 --> 01:35:33,250
to reach my door.

852
01:35:33,458 --> 01:35:38,041
And finally, you ask
your hand on the door handle.

853
01:35:39,750 --> 01:35:42,791
Only twice,

854
01:35:44,541 --> 01:35:48,583
at the very moment
where I saw you open my door...

855
01:35:50,958 --> 01:35:53,625
it really opened up.

856
01:36:26,625 --> 01:36:28,541
[Dodin is out of breath]

857
01:36:42,750 --> 01:36:43,916
[he blows]

858
01:36:57,625 --> 01:36:59,083
[he knocks on the door]

859
01:36:59,916 --> 01:37:01,250
Violet?

860
01:37:03,708 --> 01:37:04,958
Violet?

861
01:37:11,625 --> 01:37:12,750
Eugenie...

862
01:37:12,916 --> 01:37:15,833
Can you go... go see?

863
01:37:55,458 --> 01:37:57,250
[Violet sobs]

864
01:38:45,333 --> 01:38:48,250
[the censer oscillates]

865
01:40:14,333 --> 01:40:16,625
[Dodin breathes calmly]

866
01:40:18,083 --> 01:40:20,166
You don't want to eat anything?

867
01:40:20,375 --> 01:40:23,125
I can prepare
something simple.

868
01:40:25,833 --> 01:40:27,375
[Dodin] Thank you, it will be fine.

869
01:40:32,750 --> 01:40:36,625
You haven't eaten in two days,
this is not reasonable.

870
01:40:41,875 --> 01:40:43,625
[Dodin] You can tell Louis

871
01:40:43,833 --> 01:40:45,666
to remove these things?

872
01:40:48,375 --> 01:40:50,708
[Dodin] I don't need you anymore.

873
01:40:53,458 --> 01:40:55,458
[he helps himself to a drink]

874
01:41:08,416 --> 01:41:10,041
[door creaks]

875
01:41:42,833 --> 01:41:45,666
[Dodin] I had a strange dream
some time ago.

876
01:41:46,375 --> 01:41:50,291
I dreamed that I was
humanity's first cook.

877
01:41:54,291 --> 01:41:57,291
[Magot] You mean the best

878
01:41:57,458 --> 01:41:59,708
or the first man to cook?

879
01:42:03,375 --> 01:42:06,166
It's exactly
what I said to Eugénie.

880
01:42:08,500 --> 01:42:10,833
And I realize now

881
01:42:12,166 --> 01:42:16,291
that she must not have understood
very well what I wanted to say.

882
01:42:18,541 --> 01:42:21,375
It's stupid,
I should have shown...

883
01:42:23,125 --> 01:42:27,791
I should have been careful, kept watch
so that there is no misunderstanding.

884
01:42:29,833 --> 01:42:33,666
I am convinced that she knew
what you wanted to say to him.

885
01:42:36,708 --> 01:42:41,041
[Grimaud] To be able to prepare the dishes
as they are in your mind,

886
01:42:41,208 --> 01:42:45,208
Eugénie needed qualities
exceptional intuitiveness.

887
01:42:45,375 --> 01:42:48,083
At the same time
than flawless knowledge

888
01:42:48,250 --> 01:42:50,125
of the man you are.

889
01:42:56,625 --> 01:43:00,083
Let us make these proposals to Dodin.
We'll see.

890
01:43:01,333 --> 01:43:04,458
Yes.
We cannot do nothing.

891
01:43:04,625 --> 01:43:07,833
I believe in this list
of cookers.

892
01:43:08,791 --> 01:43:10,541
Does Dodin believe it?

893
01:43:15,125 --> 01:43:17,458
[Magot] One thing
that we don't say enough:

894
01:43:19,708 --> 01:43:22,083
Eugénie was a very beautiful woman.

895
01:43:25,750 --> 01:43:29,291
The question is:
Who will tell Dodin about it?

896
01:43:30,291 --> 01:43:32,208
Anyway, it's not me.

897
01:43:38,791 --> 01:43:40,625
Maybe I have an idea.

898
01:43:43,166 --> 01:43:46,166
We know what Dodin
eats for breakfast.

899
01:43:50,583 --> 01:43:53,875
[he breathes deeply and calmly]

900
01:43:54,041 --> 01:43:56,250
[a rooster crows in the distance]

901
01:43:59,875 --> 01:44:02,250
[he sniffs the air]

902
01:44:03,666 --> 01:44:04,875
Eugenie.

903
01:44:12,083 --> 01:44:13,708
What is this ?

904
01:44:14,250 --> 01:44:16,333
[dishes clinking]

905
01:44:16,500 --> 01:44:18,750
What is this?

906
01:44:20,250 --> 01:44:21,500
Violet?

907
01:44:26,166 --> 01:44:27,750
But who are you?

908
01:44:34,208 --> 01:44:37,583
Who allowed you
to wear this apron?

909
01:44:37,750 --> 01:44:38,916
[Violet] Sir.

910
01:44:39,083 --> 01:44:41,041
Take it off right away.

911
01:44:41,458 --> 01:44:42,666
[screaming] Take it off!

912
01:44:46,333 --> 01:44:47,458
Leave.

913
01:44:48,000 --> 01:44:50,791
Go! Go!

914
01:45:00,250 --> 01:45:03,875
Why do you...
What happened to you, Violette?

915
01:45:19,541 --> 01:45:21,458
[Grimaud] We are sorry.

916
01:45:23,625 --> 01:45:26,500
It was my idea,
she was stupid.

917
01:45:26,916 --> 01:45:29,375
[a dog barks in the distance]

918
01:45:29,750 --> 01:45:31,583
[Dodin] Let's not talk about it anymore.

919
01:45:41,416 --> 01:45:43,416
[Grimaud] We have drawn up
a list...

920
01:45:43,583 --> 01:45:44,750
No!

921
01:45:49,333 --> 01:45:50,375
Sir ?

922
01:45:53,375 --> 01:45:56,750
- Gentlemen.
- [Dodin] Madam. Sir.

923
01:45:58,875 --> 01:46:01,291
Forgive us
to come unexpectedly.

924
01:46:01,875 --> 01:46:05,750
Nothing wrong with that, ma'am.
Please sit down.

925
01:46:10,958 --> 01:46:12,958
How is Pauline doing?

926
01:46:13,750 --> 01:46:17,375
Exactly, it's about him
that we come to see you.

927
01:46:18,208 --> 01:46:19,708
She is unhappy.

928
01:46:21,375 --> 01:46:23,333
Since Eugénie left,

929
01:46:24,500 --> 01:46:27,333
she asks us
if you still want

930
01:46:27,541 --> 01:46:29,041
have her as an apprentice.

931
01:46:30,708 --> 01:46:33,208
Without a qualified cook, I...

932
01:46:34,958 --> 01:46:36,833
It will be impossible,
I regret.

933
01:46:37,708 --> 01:46:41,500
We understand
and we have already explained to him,

934
01:46:41,666 --> 01:46:45,541
but it doesn't seem to resolve
to forget your proposal.

935
01:46:45,708 --> 01:46:47,791
It's beyond my strength.

936
01:46:53,208 --> 01:46:55,250
We understand. Alright.

937
01:46:55,958 --> 01:46:58,083
Thank you for listening to us.

938
01:47:00,416 --> 01:47:01,666
Pauline...

939
01:47:03,041 --> 01:47:05,333
despite his young age,

940
01:47:05,750 --> 01:47:09,125
has a will
which strikes us down.

941
01:47:11,208 --> 01:47:15,000
It's not a whim on his part,
but a determination.

942
01:47:15,166 --> 01:47:18,291
Excuse me for asking you this,

943
01:47:20,041 --> 01:47:24,875
but would it be possible for you to
talk to him in person and explain it to him?

944
01:47:25,750 --> 01:47:27,583
Of course.

945
01:47:28,916 --> 01:47:31,625
- I'll talk to him.
- Thank you.

946
01:47:33,666 --> 01:47:37,333
[the mother] Thank you very much.
Gentlemen, Mr. Dodin.

947
01:47:46,041 --> 01:47:47,166
[a dog barks]

948
01:47:58,208 --> 01:48:01,333
Here is the list
candidate cooks

949
01:48:02,791 --> 01:48:05,458
that we have drawn up
all together.

950
01:48:13,666 --> 01:48:15,750
[Dodin crumples up the list]

951
01:48:45,208 --> 01:48:47,333
[birds chirp]

952
01:48:47,500 --> 01:48:50,791
[the wind rustles
the leaves of the trees]

953
01:48:58,208 --> 01:49:00,250
[a great spotted woodpecker drums]

954
01:49:12,291 --> 01:49:15,416
Lift your fillets of sole,
lift the skin.

955
01:49:15,583 --> 01:49:19,375
Cut the fillets
into several equal pieces. Parry them.

956
01:49:20,083 --> 01:49:23,750
You will have melted butter
in a fairly large frying pan.

957
01:49:23,958 --> 01:49:28,583
Sprinkle with a little fine salt.
Cover them with melted butter.

958
01:49:28,750 --> 01:49:29,750
When serving,

959
01:49:29,958 --> 01:49:31,750
put them on the fire

960
01:49:31,916 --> 01:49:35,500
and when they are stiff
on one side, turn them over.

961
01:49:35,666 --> 01:49:39,000
Their cooking done,
drain them and dress them.

962
01:49:39,541 --> 01:49:42,625
And sauce them
of a good butler

963
01:49:42,791 --> 01:49:47,541
where you will have put reduced velouté,
which you force with a little lemon.

964
01:49:47,791 --> 01:49:49,083
Good, sir.

965
01:50:10,875 --> 01:50:13,916
Well, thank you, miss.
You can leave.

966
01:50:15,583 --> 01:50:17,125
Good, sir.

967
01:50:28,625 --> 01:50:29,875
[he smells]

968
01:50:32,625 --> 01:50:33,916
Please.

969
01:51:18,250 --> 01:51:19,333
THANKS.

970
01:51:35,333 --> 01:51:36,833
Perfect cooking.

971
01:52:01,791 --> 01:52:04,125
- Here is the veal fricandeau.
- THANKS.

972
01:52:32,750 --> 01:52:34,958
This very complex soup

973
01:52:35,125 --> 01:52:38,500
is charming
sometimes a little old-fashioned.

974
01:52:39,791 --> 01:52:42,333
It must have a unique taste,

975
01:52:42,500 --> 01:52:44,833
but every part of it tastes

976
01:52:45,000 --> 01:52:48,458
retains its taste
personal and natural.

977
01:52:49,000 --> 01:52:53,291
Its general appearance should recall
the development of a sonata

978
01:52:53,500 --> 01:52:57,666
where each theme
keeps its life and flavor clean.

979
01:52:58,083 --> 01:53:01,875
In power and harmony
melted together.

980
01:53:03,000 --> 01:53:06,583
Here is the recipe, read it carefully,
please.

981
01:53:23,875 --> 01:53:26,291
Eugénie knew how to make this soup?

982
01:53:26,458 --> 01:53:29,166
Yes, of course,
very good indeed.

983
01:53:30,083 --> 01:53:31,916
It bears his name.

984
01:53:44,875 --> 01:53:48,083
I won't be able to make this soup,
I'm sorry.

985
01:53:49,458 --> 01:53:53,416
But if you think
that I could learn it from you,

986
01:53:55,041 --> 01:53:57,291
you just have to let it be known.

987
01:53:59,708 --> 01:54:01,333
Goodbye, sir.

988
01:54:30,041 --> 01:54:32,791
Where are the onions?
Show me.

989
01:54:33,250 --> 01:54:34,916
[crackling]

990
01:54:40,625 --> 01:54:44,958
It's okay, leave them out of the fire
and brown the mushrooms.

991
01:54:47,666 --> 01:54:49,291
Salt, pepper, eh?

992
01:54:49,458 --> 01:54:52,166
[butter crackling]

993
01:55:25,208 --> 01:55:27,708
You add the bacon and butter.

994
01:55:28,583 --> 01:55:29,625
Then I arrive.

995
01:55:49,541 --> 01:55:52,208
The dough will make
airtight the casserole

996
01:55:52,750 --> 01:55:55,666
and will prevent perfume from escaping.

997
01:55:56,375 --> 01:55:58,375
When it is cooked,

998
01:55:58,541 --> 01:56:00,875
she will seal
the pot perfectly,

999
01:56:01,041 --> 01:56:06,333
we will take it out of the oven and cook
over a very low heat.

1000
01:56:06,791 --> 01:56:08,708
[someone knocks on the door]

1001
01:56:14,666 --> 01:56:16,250
Pauline, wake up.

1002
01:56:16,416 --> 01:56:19,208
Come on, courage,
we're going to have a stew.

1003
01:56:25,750 --> 01:56:27,583
Pauline, get up.

1004
01:56:28,083 --> 01:56:29,083
Hmm...

1005
01:57:02,958 --> 01:57:04,791
You can put it on fire.

1006
01:57:06,375 --> 01:57:08,750
[a dove coos]

1007
01:57:57,500 --> 01:57:59,583
[a bell rings in the distance]
There you go.

1008
01:58:01,875 --> 01:58:02,875
Go ahead.

1009
01:59:44,250 --> 01:59:45,208
Hmm.

1010
01:59:58,041 --> 01:59:59,541
Taste with the marrow.

1011
02:00:07,458 --> 02:00:08,625
SO ?

1012
02:00:08,833 --> 02:00:10,041
It's good ?

1013
02:00:12,041 --> 02:00:13,625
Don't you like it?

1014
02:00:17,375 --> 02:00:20,083
It's normal, you're too young.

1015
02:00:23,083 --> 02:00:24,166
The marrow,

1016
02:00:25,416 --> 02:00:27,333
it's a complex thing.

1017
02:00:29,875 --> 02:00:34,208
We need culture, memory,
so that the taste is formed.

1018
02:00:37,708 --> 02:00:41,958
This is how the marrow
must be, remember this taste.

1019
02:00:45,208 --> 02:00:47,041
- Yes, sir.
- It's good.

1020
02:01:20,458 --> 02:01:21,583
[Dodin] There you go.

1021
02:01:31,708 --> 02:01:32,916
Skimmer.

1022
02:01:36,000 --> 02:01:37,083
THANKS.

1023
02:01:38,083 --> 02:01:40,125
[birds chirp in the distance]

1024
02:02:21,291 --> 02:02:22,916
Just dip your lips.

1025
02:02:31,833 --> 02:02:32,916
It's good.

1026
02:02:46,333 --> 02:02:49,458
We have the impression
that the meat is even better.

1027
02:02:51,916 --> 02:02:53,625
Chambolle-Musigny.

1028
02:02:56,791 --> 02:03:00,375
He has everything: the race,
elegance, purity.

1029
02:03:07,750 --> 02:03:09,666
When you put it in your mouth,

1030
02:03:11,416 --> 02:03:13,666
it has an extraordinary bouquet.

1031
02:03:13,833 --> 02:03:17,750
It’s the cashmere of wines
of Burgundy, grace incarnate.

1032
02:03:22,000 --> 02:03:24,125
And Eugénie's favorite wine.

1033
02:03:31,125 --> 02:03:33,000
It's very good what we did,

1034
02:03:33,166 --> 02:03:36,375
but all this gives me the impression
of a sketch.

1035
02:03:42,666 --> 02:03:43,833
Twenty years.

1036
02:03:44,625 --> 02:03:47,250
More than twenty years
to work together.

1037
02:03:48,458 --> 02:03:50,291
Every day we cooked.

1038
02:03:51,125 --> 02:03:54,333
I was reading a recipe and it was
wonders on fire.

1039
02:03:55,500 --> 02:03:56,833
I miss her.

1040
02:03:58,625 --> 02:04:00,500
When she spoke to me,

1041
02:04:01,541 --> 02:04:05,708
I listened to it so intensely
as I looked at his mouth and his eyes.

1042
02:04:07,375 --> 02:04:08,791
Now,

1043
02:04:09,791 --> 02:04:11,041
it's over.

1044
02:04:14,125 --> 02:04:16,291
I think of her every moment.

1045
02:04:23,250 --> 02:04:25,291
Sorry for this irruption.

1046
02:04:26,250 --> 02:04:28,500
I'll come back later.

1047
02:04:28,666 --> 02:04:30,750
Grimaud, Grimaud!

1048
02:04:37,000 --> 02:04:40,166
- Actually, it can't wait.
- Then come in.

1049
02:04:44,125 --> 02:04:47,458
I was having lunch with an acquaintance,

1050
02:04:47,625 --> 02:04:52,750
and after a consumption
with dazzling sturgeon marrow,

1051
02:04:53,500 --> 02:04:55,458
This is what this dish appears.

1052
02:04:57,000 --> 02:05:00,625
I ran to make you taste it.

1053
02:05:20,750 --> 02:05:22,041
Porgy?

1054
02:05:24,166 --> 02:05:28,500
Perfect, gentle, long cooking,
so as not to attack the fish.

1055
02:05:45,500 --> 02:05:49,041
Sweetbreads browned in butter...
with foie gras?

1056
02:05:49,833 --> 02:05:51,125
This is unheard of.

1057
02:05:51,291 --> 02:05:53,750
I didn't have them yet
never associated.

1058
02:05:56,500 --> 02:05:57,666
Morels.

1059
02:05:59,000 --> 02:06:00,458
It's spring.

1060
02:06:02,250 --> 02:06:05,333
Cooked in a little cream with...

1061
02:06:06,375 --> 02:06:09,000
a little note of coffee
which suits him well.

1062
02:06:10,458 --> 02:06:12,958
The sweetbread pairing
and celeriac

1063
02:06:13,125 --> 02:06:17,000
is muffled, dull, not explosive
and very enveloping.

1064
02:06:20,291 --> 02:06:24,083
Cucumber,
deliberately raw for its tonicity.

1065
02:06:25,125 --> 02:06:29,333
And the acidity of the lemon brings
freshness to its construction.

1066
02:06:45,958 --> 02:06:49,625
With fish, it's another
story that is told.

1067
02:06:51,666 --> 02:06:54,708
The sweetbread plays
like a fish condiment

1068
02:06:54,875 --> 02:06:59,708
which remains in its natural flavor
with perfectly cooked vegetables.

1069
02:07:01,500 --> 02:07:04,250
It's a beautiful meeting
between land and sea

1070
02:07:04,416 --> 02:07:06,875
who sings of the beauty of the territory.

1071
02:07:07,833 --> 02:07:09,833
Grimaud, it’s admirable.

1072
02:07:13,958 --> 02:07:16,375
Her name is Adèle Pidou.

1073
02:07:20,791 --> 02:07:22,208
Let's go see her.

1074
02:07:32,125 --> 02:07:33,666
Did we find it?

1075
02:07:33,833 --> 02:07:35,541
I believe so.

1076
02:07:53,208 --> 02:07:54,916
[someone returns]

1077
02:07:55,083 --> 02:07:58,625
But Pauline, what are you doing?
Come on, we're waiting for you. Hurry up.

1078
02:08:21,916 --> 02:08:24,166

[a dove coos]

1081
02:08:50,500 --> 02:08:52,625
[Eugénie] The guests were happy,
I believe.

1082
02:08:52,791 --> 02:08:54,041
[Dodin] Yes.

1083
02:08:54,208 --> 02:08:57,916
We are lucky to meet
such nice people.

1084
02:09:03,250 --> 02:09:05,666
[Eugenie] “We are in the fall
of our lives", you say.

1085
02:09:05,833 --> 02:09:08,000
- [Dodin] Yes.
- Speak for yourself.

1086
02:09:08,166 --> 02:09:09,791
I feel like I'm in the middle of summer.

1087
02:09:09,958 --> 02:09:12,958
And when I leave,
it will still be summer.

1088
02:09:13,125 --> 02:09:14,458
I love summer.

1089
02:09:15,833 --> 02:09:17,125
Don't you?

1090
02:09:17,291 --> 02:09:18,750
[Dodin] I love all the seasons.

1091
02:09:18,916 --> 02:09:23,916
The first drops of rain,
the first snowflakes.

1092
02:09:24,083 --> 02:09:27,666
The first fireplace fires,
the first buds.

1093
02:09:27,833 --> 02:09:31,083
All these first things that
come back every year delight me.

1094
02:09:31,250 --> 02:09:33,625
[Eugénie] But summer, the sun...

1095
02:09:35,833 --> 02:09:38,458
I like to feel this burn
in the body.

1096
02:09:38,625 --> 02:09:41,791
Like these embers
that I use every day.

1097
02:09:42,083 --> 02:09:43,708
[Dodin] I understand.

1098
02:09:44,250 --> 02:09:46,333
[birds chirp]

1099
02:09:49,500 --> 02:09:53,500
For over twenty years
that we live under the same roof,

1100
02:09:54,166 --> 02:09:56,875
how do you do it
to have this consistency,

1101
02:09:57,041 --> 02:09:59,208
this perseverance towards me?

1102
02:10:02,416 --> 02:10:06,416
St. Augustine
said that happiness,

1103
02:10:07,708 --> 02:10:10,750
is to continue
to desire what we already have,

1104
02:10:13,541 --> 02:10:16,166
but have I never had you?

1105
02:10:21,041 --> 02:10:23,416
Can I ask you a question?

1106
02:10:24,583 --> 02:10:26,750
It's very important to me.

1107
02:10:31,208 --> 02:10:34,125
I'm your cook or...

1108
02:10:35,541 --> 02:10:37,500
am I your wife?

1109
02:10:46,500 --> 02:10:47,916
My cook.

1110
02:10:50,416 --> 02:10:51,333
THANKS.
