La baguette de direction d'orchestre n'existait pas du temps de Louis XIV; elle ne fut inventée qu'en 1820 par Louis Spohr, et n'avait pas encore le profil éfilé que nous lui connaissons aujourd'hui. Il y a dans ce film quantité d'anachronismes, dont celui-ci.

[@lanonyme]

Lully mourra suite à un violent coup de bâton sur un pied en dirigeant. De nos jours beaucoup de chefs d'orchestre n'utilisent plus la baguette . . . .

[@artemiski1990]

I noticed throughout the movie Lully always faces the king while keeping time instead of facing the musicians like a modern conductor, was this the accepted practice when performing for royalty at the time?

[@AlejandraRivera]

This unique method of conducting, known as “directing from the floor,” involved Lully standing in front of the musicians facing the king, while beating time with his staff. Lully’s decision to face the king while conducting was a strategic choice that served both practical and symbolic purposes. It facilitated communication, emphasized his status, and reinforced his authority over the musicians, ultimately contributing to the grandeur and spectacle of musical performances in the court of Louis XIV.

I feel so bad for Lully, he deserves so much better than this, than the king. But heartbreakingly well played by both actors.

[@Linbleou]

Lui was also jealous of his fun. in such an elusive way.

[@heliotropezzz333]

If you see the whole film, Lully was rather a shit. See how he treated Moliere and stole his work. Louis was a hypocrite though. Louis' own brother was gay and didn't get the disapproving treatment that Lully did.

[@heliotropezzz333]

@@Linbleou Louis had no shortage of fun in his younger days. He became more religiously orthodox in his older days.

[@HoradrimBR]

​@@heliotropezzz333not completelly hypocritical if we consider that his rational was not moralistic but pragmatic. Accordingly, what could and couldn't be tolerated was more determined by circunstances - political consequences - not universalist and imutable moral principles. Hypocrisy would be an unequal moral judgement, there's none in this conversation, just a demand for comply to de dominant framework of their society.

Luís XIV era egocêntrico. E queria se destacar na Europa na questão cultural nesse tempo valorizando a dança em especial o ballé em contraponto a toda a Europa que tinha mais gosto pela ópera italiana.

[@TheSharoncat]

[@selmahare]

A ópera não tem nem nunca terá a graça do ballet. Começou por ser um entretenimento das massas, do povo, e no começo era vista como uma arte menor. E de facto, eu também não lhe acho interesse nenhum. Quanto ao Luís XIV ele nasceu a saber que era deus, não tem a culpa se o resto dos humanos à sua volta não sabiam o mesmo sobre si mesmos. E em terra de cegos, quem tem olho (quem sabe aquilo que mais ninguém sabe) é literalmente neste caso, rei! Um homem como ele ter-se-ia sempre destacado mesmo que não tivesse nascido para usar uma coroa. "Egocêntrico"!? Tudo começa e acaba no Ego, no eu, no eu sou, so hum. Foi o papel que teve que cumprir, para poder ensinar ao mundo, e à sua populaça primitiva da altura (e de certa forma ainda de hoje), verdadeira classe, beleza, charme e majestade. Quem lhe inveja ou julga, não compreendeu o papel que ele encenou por todos nós, e não aprendeu a lição que ele nos tentou ensinar.

I hope at some point we watch a movie about Louis XIV the statesman and the military leader. I guess it will be more expensive and harder to make than showing all the time these feminine courtiers and their elaborate dances.

[@bennnFR]

Unfortunately in France we usually prefer to make movies and documentaries about private court life music and all this stuff, which is good because we have movies such as this one or "tous les matins du monde" but indeed it would be better to see french kings in their actual role of kings. Let's not forget France was also the first european military power for at least two centuries

[@GGbreizh]

The movie is about the lully and molière not the king. Dance and art were politics and still are. You didn't understand the film nor the period if you didn't get that. Lastly what you consider feminine was considered manly at the time. Wonder about what it says about you.r sexism.

[@alyctus]

Real men have been dancing since the dawn of time. Men participating in war dances, courtly balls, and contests was very common to show a man's physique, elegance and attract the attention of the other sex. Also, this movie is about Lully anyway...

[@kerrytakashi12]

The dancing is statesmanship. The King is telling a story with each dance. He is telling you who he is and who you are in relation to him. The people of that time believed in balance of left and right brain, the alchemical androgyne or philosopher's stone. Martial talent and raw masculine energy had to be balanced with intuition and beauty. The Sun King was extremely talented in all areas, which is why people were so fascinated by him.

Pas anti gay. Son pere Louis XIII et son frere le Duc dOrléans l'etaient. Ils avaient leurs favoris et mignons. Et nombreux etaient gay ou bi a la Cour. Le probleme fut les debauches, orgies et abus a Versailles même. Il y eu même un scandale au sujet du Dauphin qui agé de 13 ans a été amené au 'club' gay de Versailles. Ce qu'on voit de Lully est un aspect des moeurs et comportement de la Cour que Louis XIV a taché de reprimer au bout de quelques années de regne. Mais en aucun cas il n'a interdit l'homosexualité comme l'avait fait le Vatican.
