Filmtip: Babettes gæstebud

Woensdag 23 december 2009 van 21:25 tot 23:05 uur op Ketnet & Canvas (VRT 2). Deense film uit 1987 van Gabriel Axel met Stéphane Audran naar het boekvan Isak Dinesen (Karen Blixen, Out of Africa).
Jeffrey Overstreet: Babette is quietly fighting the Gnostic lie that the spiritual life is separate from physical experience. She is revealing the glory of God to them through food. She shows them that food, like all of God’s great gifts, is meant to be celebrated and shared with vigor, reverence, and gratitude. It might even have the power to make friends out of enemies.
