Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn July 2010, Finnish divers found 168 bottles of champagne beneath the Baltic Sea off the coast of Åland. The bottles were sent back to France for analysis. Forty-six were identified as Veuve Clicquot. When the wine was tasted in 2015, several of them were still drinkable, well-preserved thanks to the cold and dark conditions at the depth. A bottle of nearly 200-year-old Veuve Clicquot broke the record for the most expensive champagne ever sold. In 2011, a bidder paid EUR30,000 for one of them found in the Baltic Sea.
- GoofsAt the end of the movie it's stated that Barbe Nicole passed away at 89. But in fact she passed away at 88.
- Quotes
Barbe Nicole: Looking back on that first day with you, i think I undestood immediately why humans beings are compelled to create. why we must find some way to lay down our lives, however best we can. It is so the we might uncover the secrets of ourselves, better understand the ones we love.The time and place in which we live. And that with any luck, 100 Years from now, someone will know that we were here.
Featured review
I went to see the movie at the local cinema due to my wife's suggestion but I was concerned it was the type of movie I would later wish I didn't bother to go and view. Not my cup of tea so to speak.
Instead, I was glad I did. It made me feel I was in the Champagne region and the acting seemed in keeping with the French way. It was in my eyes a realistic portrayal of events and the region.
I knew nothing of the person(s) or the Champagne brand but a little research beforehand helped. In any movie covering someone's life there has to be a balance with what parts are emphasised and I was happy with the mix in that regard.
