Featured review
Rickman project. it's pretty good!
A period piece, kind of. 1682... designing the gardens at Versaille. what might have happened. WAY before the peoples' uprising. the big name here seems to be Alan Rickman as King Louis. and Kate Winslet had been nominated for a bunch of her earlier works, and WON for Titanic! Mrs. DeBarra (Winslet) is one of the candidates to be the design artist for the royal gardens. not a lot of in depth character development, but we see the relationship between DeBarra, LeNotre, and LeNotre's wife. and some side plot about the politics of hiring just the "right" work crew to do the heavy lifting. was that the revenge of another architect not chosen? not quite sure what happened there. and so many things are up in the air when the Queen dies. a fun interlude where DeBarra mistakes the king for a gardener. but they have a very candid, pleasant talk. it's an interesting coincidence that this story with Louis XIV is about interactions with De Barre, while the Lucille Ball film DuBarry Was a Lady is about a relationship Louis XV ! Directed by Rickman himself! one of the two films he directed. it's actually good! tells a good story, doesn't get too deep in any one direction. Netflix. i'm surprised at the low ratings.
