Ridicule (1996)

"Ridicule" is the 1996 period drama set in the court of Louis XVI, where wit and social maneuvering determine survival among the French aristocracy. Judith Godreche appears in the film as part of its tale of ambition, romance, and cutting verbal sparring dressed in period finery. The archive holds one scene from the film worth noting, a glimpse of Godreche baring skin amid the powdered wigs and candlelit intrigue. Fans of costume drama with a bit of skin beneath the corsets will find this clip a worthwhile watch.
