Jeanne du Barry
French-Belgian historical drama by Maïwenn – 1h56
With Maïwenn, Johnny Depp, Benjamin Lavernhe
Jeanne Vaubernier, a working-class girl eager to rise socially, uses her charms to rise above her circumstances. Her lover, Comte Du Barry, who grows rich thanks to Jeanne’s lucrative gallantry, wishes to introduce her to the King. He arranges the meeting through the influential Duc de Richelieu. The meeting exceeded his expectations: between Louis XV and Jeanne, it was love at first sight… With the courtesan, the King rediscovered his zest for life – so much so that he could no longer do without her and decided to make her his official favorite. Scandal: no one wants a girl from the streets at Court.
