Ridicule
France 1996, 102 minutes
Dir. Patrice Leconte
In French with English subtitles
Rating: [M]
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Comedy
Topics: Period - 1700s.
Aroview: Delightful Cesar-winning comedy set in the Court of Louis XVI in 1700s France where the King grants favours to those endowed with only the sharpest of verbal wits. Visually exquisite, and imbued with as much wisdom as wisecrackery, dir. Leconte surrenders his most satisfying film to date.

5 stars (Exceptional) Loved this costume drama…some cutting French humour ~emjay
2 stars (Good Try) Overrated. Beautifully produced. But the facile relationships are so tiresome! Why do so many modern French movies lack substance? ~Anon
