Babette's feast

So I watched the critically acclaimed Babette's feast from 1987. Well is this movie a classic I say a resounding yes. Is it for everyone no! Am I possibly biased because I like Babette am a true artist in the kitchen (yes Fab I know I am full of myself but you have eaten my fare), well possibly but what about all the other people who love this film. This movie is about lost love, struggle, loss, religion, dedication, the paths we take, and the choices we make, it is about joy and acceptance, and learning to free oneself to be happy in the presence of a puritan God, all over a kick ass meal. However, most of all this movie is about that "kick ass" greatest meal ever. In that sense I hate Babette she has a talent I can only dream of having. Of course she is just fictional, but then again there are these asshole chefs in the world who have more talent in their pinkie than I do in my whole fat carcass. I hate being reminded of that I truly wish to be one of the greats of all time, and I believe if I can ever get the ingredients for my pizza together I shall become legend; but I digress. If transformers was not your favorite movie of the last decade, if you did not have to run to see Sex in the City, if your idea of talent is not Ben Affleck, then run don't walk to your computer and download this flick. Or just do what I did and catch it on satellite one day, but by all means see this film, it is really brilliant.
