Just watched the 1987 classic Babette's Feast and I’m still thinking about it. 🍷🐟 It’s a beautifully slow, deeply moving story about a French cook who brings light and color into a strict, puritan Danish village.
Set in a remote 19th-century Danish village, the film tells the story of two pious sisters living a life of austere devotion. When they take in Babette, a French refugee fleeing the Commune, their quiet, regimented world is turned upside down.
The magic happens when Babette wins a lottery and spends every penny on creating an authentic, lavish French banquet for the villagers.
Babette uses her talent and fortune to give, asking for nothing in return, bringing art to those who have forgotten its purpose.
