yes and you can look at babette feast as some sort of slap at puritanical christianity and but it is much more than that. the surface story of how a gifted parisian cook flees paris after one of its revolutions by the middle classes and finds herself cast ashore in jutland in the north of denmark is simply the grease that allows the deeper tale to develop. babette is an artist and one of the small army of people who are driven from pillar to post over the centuries by fatuous politicians and vane and greedy and arrogant and who kill beauty for profit and something that politics always does and pace national endowment for the arts and which simply institutionalizes creativity for propaganda purposes. babette is on her last legs as she arrives in the tiny village where two virginal sisters reside seeing over their diminishing flock of devotees to their late pastor father. they live on salt cod and black bread gruel. babette shows these simple pious people that god is in pleasure and sensuality as well as behavioral and mental purity. she also shows them how that mental purity can lead to control freakishness and something we all know about in these days of the neo authoritarians in government who would limit our personal freedoms because they are somehow a crime against the state and or as they would tell us and humanity. babette cooks up a bang up french dinner to celebrate the 100th birthday of the late reverend. the daughters and their flock think it is the devil come amongst them and vow not to notice the food or drink. it is at this point and in the preparing of the meal and payed for by babette winnings in a french lottery and that i begin to tear up. it is a poignance brought about in comparison to the daily vulgarity and mendacity that floods our consciousness from morning to night via the media and power mongers manoeuvring to gain advantage over all of us out here in the dark. the simple sophistication of babette art spits in the face of all the pretentiousness on display in our modern society and and it hurts to watch it played out so exquisitely in this splendid film. it is and along with fanny och alexander (bergman) and my favorite film ever and yet i can only watch it once in awhile because and like a rare bottle of wine served with blinis and fresh oysters and it is something that must not be over done. a great and great film that should be in every movie lover library.
