Comme un chef was the French title. The English-language release called it The Chef. Either way, it is a 2012 comedy about a Michelin-starred chef fighting to keep his traditional kitchen from being taken over by molecular gastronomy. Daniel Cohen directed, and Jean Reno plays Alexandre Lagarde, the old-guard chef whose investors want him to modernize. Michael Youn plays a gifted amateur cook who becomes Lagarde's secret weapon. The film is light, predictable, and Reno is the main reason to watch it.
In this promotional image, Reno stands in front of the Eiffel Tower in full chef whites and a tall toque, looking satisfied. No watch is visible — the chef's jacket covers his wrists completely. The watch worn in the film has not been identified.
