Flucht nach Varennes
La Nuit de Varennes (original)
It should come as no surprise to anyone watching Le Nuit de Varennes that its maker, Ettore Scola, studied law before turning to filmmaking, and became an expert at socially conscious satire and parody. In this instance, Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, fleeing the French Revolution in 1791, confront and debate various historical political and philosophical figures (including Thomas Paine, played by Harvey Keitel!!!) about the nature and causes of the turmoil around them.
Starring Jean-Louis Barrault, Marcello Mastroianni, Hanna Schygulla, Harvey Keitel, Jean-Claude Brialy, Andréa Ferréol, Jean-Louis Trintignant, Michel Piccoli, Michel Vitold, Laura Betti
It's a drama and history movie, and has a rating of 7.2 out of 10 from Imdb which is usually fine for this kind of movie.
