I really enjoyed this film! The scenery and the costuming, and the love story set in the time period of Louis XV! Johnny Depp is a master at using his eyes, expression and body language to create a feel in the room where each scene happens. Maiwenn did an excellent portrayal of Jeanne, and you could really feel the chemistry between them. In one scene, the king comes in and totally dominates the room communicating such feeling without words. I highly recommend this film. It was easy to keep up with the French dialogue using the subtitles. The music also carries you away,! I highly recommend this film. You Will feel so many emotions!

I saw this at the Chicago International Film Festival. It was very interesting to see a Presidential Campaign from the inside, including seldom seen debate prep. The film also really captured the relationship between Pete and Chasten, and what it's like to stick to your principles while campaigning across the country. A refreshing, interesting film.
