Sinopsis(1)
Es un gran fresco pre-revolucionario que sigue el proceso de ascensión social de la modesta sombrerera Jeanne Vaubernier (Pola Negri). Jeanne renuncia a su verdadero amor para, amante tras amante, llegar hasta el lecho del rey Luis XV (Emil Jannings). Ella, que ha jugado con el destino de un país, tras ser decapitada se convierte en juguete del pueblo que ha derrocado a la monarquía. (Filmin)

The classic story of the royal mistress DuBarry, directed by Lubitsch and abundantly assisted by his permanent ensemble. The titular heroine is Pola Negri, Emil Jannings plays Louis XV, and Harry Liedtke Armand De Foix. Personally, I don't feel that Pola Negri and her creations are the main assets to admire in this film. Instead, we can focus more on the epochal unfolding of images of the French court in full swing and the contrasting revolutionary turmoil. Madame DuBarry is a sweeping, majestic film, a historical fresco that heralded in an entire subgenre of films grazing for a finale with Madame Guillotine at the forefront. In addition, this film features the perfect symbiosis with the peephole metaphor and indiscreet situations.
