Babette's Feast

      Reading the preparation of meal from the story is somewhat boring. However, watching the Babette's preparation from the movie is really enjoyable. This movie is very particular in the details of food culture, even in the tablecloth. There is a part that shows how Babette ironed the tablecloth again and again to give people a visual treat. Also different kinds of wines and cups. The most interesting part throughout the movie is people's expression during the dinner. People's conversation about the wonderful setting and food also make me understand the whole story better. And also the music throughout the movie.
