You know I love movies set in times long ago. One of my faves is Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette. I remember seeing the trailer for it before it came out, and it was set to New Order's "Age of Consent" and I couldn't stop watching it. Kings + Queens + fancy dresses and shoes + a soundtrack filled with 80's music and Vivaldi...what a combination. Have you seen it? Do you like it? I own it and watch it every year. Plus Versailles was amazingly gorgeous blew my mind when I visited it and saw where she really lived. It's beyond ridiculous.
I know a lot of people that dislike this movie, but I'm with you and I really like it!! It's so decadent and beautiful, but I think my favorite parts are when she's with her daughter out at her cottage. Everything looks so natural and relaxed.
ReplyDeleteI love this movie! Everything looks so beautiful. I want to have a tea party or some kind of girly get together, Marie Antoinette style with little petit fours. I like the montage in the movie when Aphex Twin play Avril 14th and all the garden scenes.
ReplyDeleteI had to keep myself from walking out of the theater during this movie! I was not a fan. But I will say the cinematography is beautiful- that, I liked. And after I went to Versailles I gave it another chance and didn't hate it AS much.
