Title: Babette's Feast is a feast! Buy it!
Review: I have seen this movie about 5 times. Just now in DVD and in the dubbed English which at first is kind of peculiar sounding, but they left the small amount of French in French, and all the SINGING in Danish and French, etc. which made the IFFY dubbing tolerable. Frankly, the DANISH - FRENCH with subtitles is much more enjoyable. So I recommed using THAT CHOICE which you get on a DVD.Here's another way of enjoying this movie. Just picture the cast of colorful ACTORS just being themselves after every scene.They are cast in their roles of being these dreary Danish Protestants stuck in a place without a tree or flower or a blade of grass to lighten up the monotony. But I bet the cast were roaring with laughter every time the director yelled CUT!The food scenes - which dominate the movie - make the movie a great cooking lesson.The ending is satisfying and by the third viewing - you actually get the point of the religiosity of the Danes.
Is the review positive or negative?
