If you loved Tagebuch einer Kammerzofe, try Leb wohl, meine Königin!
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Benoît Jacquot, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Tagebuch einer Kammerzofe, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Leb wohl, meine Königin! is
Dangerous Liaisons if set during the Terror. Palace life continues at Versailles, even as the mobs gather outside. Léa Seydoux quietly steals the show as a servant caught in history's gears.
