This Danish film has brought the "food film style" on the screen for nearly two decades. The first half of the film is very simple and elegant, the love story of the two sisters is tender and touching, and it also makes people understand the folk customs of the Danish parish; the second half focuses on the whole preparation and cooking process of the feast, and French cuisine The color, fragrance, and taste of Lutheran people are fully displayed, and it is mouth-watering. It is no wonder that the Lutheran faithful who focus on abstinence and temperance in their lives were also conquered by this feast. Sisters Martina and Philippa live in a small village in northern Denmark. The sisters, who are simple and simple, are dedicated to maintaining the religion and gatherings established by their father, who is a pastor. When they were both young and beautiful, under the guidance of their father, they rejected the mundane happiness of marriage, devoted themselves to religious cause, and lived a simple life of eating salted fish porridge day after day, year after year.
The film tells us through a simple story: We must never forget our desire for beautiful things. As long as there is kindness and gratitude, God will take care of you.
French feast with grapes and wine VS Puritan extreme salted fish porridge-Excessive material shortage and extreme simplicity of life may not be a shame, because it will blind people's minds like long-term luxury and extreme luxury, and breed complaints and discord.

Babette's Feast quotes

  • General Lorens Löwenhielm: This is Blinis Demidoff! And this most certainly is Veuve Clicquot 1860!

  • General Lorens Löwenhielm: One day in Paris, after I'd won a riding competition, some French officers invited me out to dine at one of the city's finest restaurants, the Café Anglais. The chef, surprisingly enough, was a woman. We were served cailles en sarcophage, a dish of her own creation. General Galliffet, our host for the evening, explained that this woman, this head chef, had the ability to transform a dinner into a kind of love affair, a love affair that made no distinction between bodily appetite and spiritual appetite.
