Me too. People look at me like I'm bananas. My husband and mother both think cilantro tastes terrible - I've heard that it's genetic.

Here's a film, not French. "Dona Flora and her Two Husbands." It's Brazilian, 1978. Sonia Braga is a cooking instructor. Erotic, sensual, wonderful. By the way, I use fresh lemon juice, (meyer lemon when I can get it), on all green vegs, carrots, salads -- it brightens up the flavor. Just give a squeese right before serving.

When we finally pick the 8000 pounds of green beans we've grown this summer (I think we planted green beans...), I will definitely be making this. Yum!
