In 1671, France was in decline under the rule of Louis XIV. The extravagant profligacy of the court nobles caused the people to struggle in dire straits. The suffering people brought their grievances into the palace, but they failed to bring the sense of crisis to the royal family members at the same time. At this time, Prince Kurd, who is in charge of the cities in northern France, really cared about preparing a lavish feast for the arrival of the king to please this "father" and thereby free himself from the economic crisis. It is not easy to win the king's favor with wine, food, singing and dancing. In addition to the grand setting and all the treasures, the feast needs to last for three days. Fortunately, the prince has the help of the capable general manager Vettel. The banquet was held as scheduled, and the king and his entourage were really moved by the grand occasion and were overjoyed. Between the evil battles of court politics and the enjoyment of sensual dogs, Wittel found himself in love and fell in love with Queen Anne of Louis XIV. On the third day of the banquet, Wittel found that he could no longer please the court.

Absolutely beautiful and luxurious. It's just that the personal point of view is no longer here. I just think that the film can also be called "The Butler's Fire Fighting Around", and I deeply feel the hardships and haggardness of the servants (communities) and slaves (animals)...
