If you loved Glaube, Blut und Vaterland, try Vatel
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

What Vatel is
Apparently royalty requires a lot of party planning. A prince hosts Louis XIV at his chateau to secure a commission. It all goes predictably over the top.
