Sadly, Stéphane Audran just passed away on March 27, 2018. Read more here: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/27/obituaries/stephane-audran-who-starred-in-babettes-feast-dies-at-85.html. We can all agree that the Françoise Nyssen, France’s culture minister said it best, ““her presence, her elegance and her inimitable voice remain and resonate.”

According to the NY Times, “Although ‘Babette’s Feast’ was her best-known movie internationally — it won the Oscar for best foreign language film in 1988 — Ms. Audran by then had been famous for decades in France, most notably for her work in the films of the director Claude Chabrol, to whom she was married from 1964 to 1980."

According to the Carroll Arts Center, “Beautiful but pious sisters Martine (Birgitte Federspiel) and Philippa (Bodil Kjer) grow to spinsterhood under the wrathful eye of their strict pastor father on the forbidding and desolate coast of Jutland, until one day, Philippa's former suitor sends a Parisian refugee named Babette (Stéphane Audran) to serve as the family cook. Babette's lavish celebratory banquet tempts the family's dwindling congregation, who abjure such fleshly pleasures as fine foods and wines.

“Film Lovers in Carroll County (FLICC) continues their annual tradition of screening a movie right before Thanksgiving that brings attention to hunger in our own community along with a canned food drive. Bring a non-perishable food item and get a free small popcorn.
