ANGELIKA’S NOTE

Now known for its Academy Award winning costuming, the gracefully magnificent MARIE ANTOINETTE stars Kirsten Dunst (SPIDER-MAN, MELANCHOLIA, LITTLE WOMEN) as French Queen Marie Antoinette through her marriage to Louis XVI to the fall of Versailles. Featuring stunning direction from Sofia Coppola (THE BEGUILED, THE IRGIN SUICIDES, LOST IN TRANSLATION), this Cannes Film Festival winner is not to be missed. Rolling Stone praises the film, "With lyrical intelligence and scrappy wit, Coppola creates a luscious world to get lost in. It's a pleasure."

SYNOPSIS

Written and directed by Academy Award® winner Sofia Coppola (2003, Best Writing, Lost In Translation), Marie Antoinette is an electrifying yet intimate re-telling of the turbulent life of history’s favorite villainess. Kirsten Dunst portrays the ill-fated child princess who married France’s young and indifferent King Louis XVI (Jason Schwartzman). Feeling isolated in a royal court rife with scandal and intrigue, Marie Antoinette defied both royalty and commoner by living like a rock star, which served only to seal her fate.

ANGELIKA’S NOTE
SYNOPSIS

"With lyrical intelligence and scrappy wit, Coppola creates a luscious world to get lost in. It's a pleasure."

Rolling Stone

"Highly theatrical and yet also intimate and informal, Marie Antoinette lets its story slink almost casually through its lovingly composed and rendered images."

New York Times

"Instead of turning her inside out, Coppola illustrates just how ordinary she was and how her insular world prevented her from understanding the events that eventually would end her life."
