Review of Taste

Taste (2021)
9/10
Another view of Vietnam
10 September 2022
Taste reveals a new and unique view of Saigon that I've never seen before. I love the cinematography and sound design. Like its name, Taste shows something new and provokes new feelings about Saigon, where I was born and raised. It introduces us to pieces of life that we would've never had a chance to experience. People criticize the film due to its nude scenes. But for me, they shows the nature of humanity, our differences and likenesses. Deep down underneath the covers we're wearing everyday, who are we? Should we question more about the things we do everyday, the food we eat everyday and the feeling we feel everyday? I'm very surprised to know that Le Bao didn't go to film school. His film is brave and beautiful. I'm glad I was able to watch this film in Thailand. I hope to see more of his film in the future.
