The Lady and the Duke (2001) short review

Kendra April 29, 2001
The Lady and the Duke (2001)

The next time I wait far too long to see a really good costume movie, slap me, will you?!  This was AMAZING!  It tells the story of Grace Elliott, Englishwoman and former mistress to the Prince of Wales, who has long since settled in Paris.  She was once the mistress of the Duc d’Orleans, they are now just really good friends.  The movie details her life, and her relationship with the Duc, throughout the course of the French Revolution.  Not only are the costumes STUNNING, but all of the outdoor scenes feature the actors digitally inserted into period paintings.  Just amazing.  In French.
