The Taste of Others Plot and Cast
Jean-Jacques Castella, an unpolished and ultra-pragmatic industrialist, attends a production of Racine's tragedy "Berenice" to see his niece in a bit part. He is drawn to the leading lady, Clara Devaux, who seems strangely familiar. He recalls that he once hired and quickly fired her as his English language tutor. Castella immediately enrolls in language lessons, but Clara, viewing him as an ill-tempered philistine with bad taste, rejects his advances until he manages to charm her.
