The Taking of Power by Louis XIV (1966)
Roberto Rossellini
French
Criterion 456
An accurate account of Louis XIV's early rise to power.
James - A valuable in only its seemingly accurate portrayal of Louis XIV. This movie is bland and ugly. Its only possible redemption is France's palaces and scenery but those are foregone to focus on fat actors.
F+
Britney - I obviously hated it. The history bored me and the ugly actors too. Even France looked ugly- which I thought was impossible. Is this really Criterion?
