*FrenchCuisineIsHaughty: Played straight and subverted. The food in the film is made for the upper-class Dodin and his socioeconomic peers and friends. Plenty of foie gras, veal, cream, and wine flowing with one scene with Dodin and company chowing down on ortolan (handkerchief covering and all). However, we see Eugenie, Violette, and Pauline enjoying the same food in the kitchen, signifying that class does not separate Dodin and friends from the kitchen staff. A central dish in the film, pot-au-feu, is known to be a humble dish of boiled beef and vegetables created to sustain peasants and Dodin plans to present that as the main dish to the Prince of Eurasia.
