Any true gourmand knows the story of Vatel -- and that he died for his art. I thought it impressively well-filmed and quite stunning. I didn't care that this wasn't Depardieu's best film or that it wasn't that well-acted. The visuals alone were worth the price of admission. It is sad that Tom Stoppard disappointed with dialogue that could have been far more compelling but I still didn't care. I am just happy to have a French Food Movie and see the history of Chantilly Cream!
