If you're in the mood for sumptuous period drama with intrigue and romance, Jeanne du Barry delivers exactly that—it's a classic rags-to-riches tale set in lavish 18th-century courts with genuine stakes. Johnny Depp and Maïwenn (who also directs) bring star power and artistic credibility to what could be a trashy historical romp, so absolutely give it a shot tonight.
Plot
The life of Jeanne Bécu, who was born as the illegitimate daughter of an impoverished seamstress in 1743 and went on to rise through the Court of Louis XV to become his last official mistress.
Director: Maïwenn
Cast: Maïwenn, Johnny Depp, Benjamin Lavernhe, Melvil Poupaud, Robin Renucci
