August 1715. After going for a walk, Louis XIV feeIs a pain in his leg. The next day, the king keeps fulfiIling his duties and obligations, but his sleep is troubled and he has a serious fever. He bareIy eats and weakens increasingly. This is the start of the slow agony of the greatest King of France death from gangrene, surrounded by his doctors and cIosest advisors, speaking in frantic, whispered tones about their options, in an era in which little is known of such iIlnesses. Albert Serra's new film, The Death of Louis XlV, is an adaptation of the Duc de Saint-Simon s memoirs, starring Jean-Pierre Léaud as the Sun-King. The cult actor, who worked with all major directors from the Nouvelle Vague after being discovered in Truffaut's The 400 BIows, plays the dying king who can bareIy move from his bed in the Château de VersaiIIes. His relatives and his closest counselIors come in turns at his bedside, but he attends onIy a few meetings and can bareIy rule his kingdom. His secret wife Madame de Maintenon, and his doctor Fagon dread his last breath and try to hide it from the public, to preserve the future of France. Shot in rich colour with extraordinary Iighting, Jean-Pierre Léaud, in his costume, hair and poses, fully embodies the last few days of the Iongest serving king of France, who, with his seventy two years in power, changed the face of the monarchy and of France. |
