This movie was enjoyable to watch.
The narrator element blended well in telling the story of King Louis Xv mistress.
The rules of the Versailles court seem so extreme nowadays but the movie depicts everything in detail along with the costumes and dialogue it makes a very good historical drama.
Johnny Depp's French is good and he delivers his lines modestly which makes it more realistic.
Sometimes movie makers tend to embellish the historical facts, this one doesn't and the intertwined relationships between the king, his daughters and his mistress are well documented and these play out in this movie.
Depp's performance was very good. It was nice to see him play an historical character, I think it was a challenge he was up for and in my opinion he nailed it.
