The film, staged by Alan Rickman, but not from English, but from French life - a melodrama, in the Russian box office called "The Versailles Novel", it is unclear why the distributors were not satisfied with the original title "Little Chaos". No matter how hard Rickman tried, the film was still absolutely English, so leisurely with small bursts of some feelings and deeds. But in general, I watched it not without pleasure, since the actors were good - in the title role of the gardener Sabine de Barra - Kate Winslet, Rickman himself in the role of the king, in the role of the main gardener - Belgian Matthias Schonarts, with restraint can give a head start to the British, pretty Stanley Tucci in the role of Philippe of Orleans. King Louis XIV intends to move from the Louvre to Versailles, for which he requires his landscape architect Andre Le Notre to “make him beautiful there.” He begins to pick up assistants and his choice falls on the young widow Sabine, who presented an original project, somewhere complementing his own, who survived, as it turns out, a heavy tragedy in life and plunged after that into the work of decorating gardens, bringing her original fantasy to the famous highly ordered French garden - a little chaos. A woman is distinguished by an independent character, natural behavior and directness of statements. Everything sometimes goes not too smoothly, she works hard, she has to face both wrecking and meanness, it turns out that in the course of work she accidentally gets closer to the king (spiritually & #128512;) ), but everything ends well, good triumphs, she succeeds, the king is happy, and the new love warms her suffering soul. And although you understand that this is an amazing story, similar to a fairy tale, played out with British restraint and most likely far from any real reality, so quite benign in terms of the image of royalty and courtiers, nevertheless, it even causes some warm feelings, even though in the fairy tale everything will be good, I did not irritate.
