    Alright, I guess it helped that he had connections and was a buddy of the King of France. But how did he get to be in such a relationship, wasn’t it because Louis agreed with Maddy that Jean was a musical genius?

  8. allegromarcato says:

    @chelseagurl97 @chelseagurl97 Those are not real reasons to call him a genius. In order to arrive to the conclusion that anyone is a genius one needs to analyse an artist’s works and determined what made him great. Lully had talent but there were other composers who had a lot more talent than he. Why were people not attracted to them… because they didn’t have powers or connections. Look at Mozart, he was way better composer than Cimarosa and Salieri together, but not a lot of people cared.

    @allegromarcato She was aware, Im sure. A)She just had to listen to his music to know he was a genius, which she would instantly asseverate if she had any sense and B) Knowing him, he probably told her he was a genius every day they were together. And fuck ‘power’ , he was probably great in bed besides(such a passionate high strung soul) and from what I’ve read he had a huge cock. They called it the “Turk’.

    I don’t know if Maddy was aware that Lully was a musical genius. (I’m not saying he wasn’t) But the girl wanted to be near Lully because he had power.

    Qui est l’homme qui tombe amoureuse de madeleine?

    Who’s the guy who is in love with madeleine?

  12. chelseagurl97 says:

    @d2eux Simple, Lully for Louis because he is the Sun King of France, and Maddy for Lully because he is a musical genius. This point doesn’t need to be developed.

  13. d2eux says:

    This is a good movie, but in my opinion it does not fully develop how Lully became so enamored with the king, and likewise Madaleine for
    Lully
