  Date End: 2010-05-05\n\nThe Food Film Series continues in May! This Acade
 my Award-winner for Best Foreign Language Film was a big art house hit\, s
 pawning a whole international subgenre\, 'foodie' (films about the liberat
 ing effects of good food). It's adapted from a story by Isak Dinesen about
  two sisters in a 19th century Calvinist settlement in Denmark who\, under
  their late father's rigorous spiritual dictates\, pass up their chances f
 or romance and worldly success. Years pass\; they grow into charitable old
  spinsters and one day a French war refugee\, Babette (St&eacute\;phane Au
 dran)\, comes to work for them. Life goes quietly one for years until one 
 day Babette decides to prepare a lavish gourmet dinner for the elders of t
 he town\, even though the thought of such decadence makes the sisters fear
  for their Christian souls. This all may sound rather dull to some viewers
 \, but rest assured\, no one who has seen this film has ever regretted it.
  Even with its measured pacing and austere emotional palette this remains 
 a riveting experience from the first frame to the last. The acting is marv
 elously naturalistic\, and the cinematography evokes the dark beauty of 19
 th century Scandinavian paintings\, rendering the ancient\, white-whiskere
 d faces of the villagers\, the windswept coastline\, the wood-hewn interio
 rs\, and of course the incredible food\, with a vital\, deeply felt revere
 nce that lingers in the mind long after the film is over. Directed by Gabr
 iel Axel. In Danish & French with subtitles. Rated G. 103 min\, 1988.\n\nS
