I laughed just before the orgy, during and right after

How unbelievable and comedic was that? Till then I was seriously watching, although I did wonder about how Grenouille could run all the way to the resthouse and reach in such short time on an empty stomach and how on earth did he access a guarded private residence with dogs. Didn't he have the intelligence to simply stun his victims instead of killing them? How was he allowed to take his precious vial with him when he was taken into custody?!? Was he eaten up in the end? It seems uncertain becuase there were no bones or bloodstains.Huge, huge gaps in this story. Excellent music and visuals. John Hurt's narrative is very good and there is some introduction to the art of making a perfume
