Menus-Plaisirs – Les Troisgros is a 2023 documentary film edited, co-produced, and directed by Frederick Wiseman. [1] The film follows the Troisgros family's operation of a Michelin starred restaurant in central France. [2] It premiered at the 80th Venice International Film Festival on September 3, 2023, and premiered in the United States at the New York Film Festival on October 7, 2023.
The film follows the Troisgros family and their restaurants in the French countryside. Wiseman showcases various day-to-day operations involved in running the restaurants, such as ingredient sourcing, menu planning, and food service. [3] The film primarily focuses on Le Bois sans Feuilles (The Woods Without Leaves), but also features two other restaurants in the area owned by the family. [2]
Like Wiseman's other documentaries, the film uses only observational footage with no interviews, music, or voiceover narration. [4]
The documentary was conceived in 2020, after Wiseman had lunch at the Troisgros restaurant and asked the chef to film a documentary without any prior planning. Filming took place with a four-person crew over 35 consecutive days in 2020. [5]
The film has received overwhelmingly positive reviews, scoring 100% from both critics and audiences on the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes. [6] On Metacritic, the film holds a score of 91 out of 100, indicating "universal acclaim". [7]
Manohla Dargis of The New York Times called the film "deeply pleasurable", praising Wiseman's "analytical and dialectical" approach. [2] Both Variety and Eater noted the rhythmic nature of the film and described it as "mesmerizing". [8] [9]
As of March 15, 2024, the film has grossed an estimated $140,348 in the United States since its release. [10]
