Ex-Lovers Juliette Binoche and Benoît Magimel, Reunited
Twenty years after their breakup, the Taste of Things co-stars laugh, argue, and remember why they fell in love.
Binoche, 59, and Magimel, 49, first met in 1999, co-starring as famous writers and on-again-off-again lovers George Sand and Alfred de Musset in Diane Kurys’s romantic period epic The Children of the Century( Les Enfants du Siècle). The two didn’t have much meaningful contact over the next 20 years until they were cast as a couple again in The Taste of Things,France’s 2024 Oscar submission from Vietnamese French director Tran Anh Hùng. At times, Magimel seems taken aback by how personal our conversation gets, but Binoche is squarely in her comfort zone, directly addressing various conflicts they’ve had over the years and occasionally pausing in the middle of a sentence to tilt back her head and laugh.
