I enjoyed this. Its very slow & a world I've never seen in film before.
One of the most lovely films. Heartwarming, honest, and full of life. The best thing from Denmark since Legos.
Such a pleasent movie! Delicate, deep, and slow like it should be
While not necessarily entertaining, this introspective journey offers plenty for viewers’ hearts and minds to enjoy in later conversations.
A great movie especially if you believe in food as an experience that can be spiritual and bring people together
This is probably what it's like to film heaven. Just a beautiful spiritual experience all rooted in food.
Been too long since I watched it, but I remember it carrying significant spiritual imagery.
The feast part is great once you finally get to it. A bit heavy on the cult side of religion for my taste.
You ever wondered. How an angelical film looks like? Babette's feast is the answer.
I thought this said boba get. I have not seen this movie
