Movie: Vatel (2000)
Film Synopsis:
In 1671, with War Brewing with Holland, a penniless prince invites Louis XIV to a three-day celebration at a chateau in Chantilly. The prince wanted a commission as a general, so his extravagance impressed the king. In charge of all was the servant, vatel, a man of honor, talent, and low birth. The prince was Craven in his longing for stature: No task was too menial or dishonorable for him to give Vatel. While Vatel tries to maintain some dignity, he finds himself attracted to Anne de Montausier, the kings newest mistress. In Vatel, he finds someone authentic, living his principles within the casual cruelty of court politics. Can they both escape unscathed? Uploaded by: Freeman November 21, 2020 at 22:18
