Babettes Gæstebud (1987) directed by Gabriel Axel
This is a very nice Danish film by Gabriel Axel. It will surely please not only music lovers but also the connoisseurs of fine food. The major events take place in Jutland where two sisters are learning music from a Frenchman. Apart from music one of them also experiences disappointment linked to first love. There is brief mention of religion too as the filmmaker has showed some pious church goers.For these people the life is very serene and they don't know that it is going to change after the arrival of a master cook.This role is played by a charming French actress: Stephane Audran. She prepares a very excellent meal for her master in which all the village are invited. It is a joy to watch simple village folk enjoying tasty gourmet coupled with marvelous wines and champagne. So all you music and food lovers gear up. This is a film you are likely to cherish for a long, long, long time.
