Based on the book 'Marie Antoinette: The Journey' by Antonia Fraser, Sophia Coppola's 'Marie Antoinette' is a powerful and sympathetic film of the tragic life of France's iconic and misunderstood eighteenth-century Queen. Shot entirely in France, much on location at the Palace of Versailles, the film is visually stunning, bringing together a cast that includes Kirsten Dunst, Jason Schwartzman, Rip Torn, and Marianne Faithful, and the extraordinary costume designs of Oscar winner Milena Canonera ('Barry Lyndon', 'A Clockwork Orange').
A moving story of naivety and responsibility, reputation and misunderstanding, 'Marie Antoinette' is a film that Sophia Coppola has wanted to make for years. In a book that is once a personal chronicle of a major work and a beautiful tribute to the potential of film, featuring elements of the director's own screenplay as well as captivating stills, the director's personal photos, and original designs for costumes and sets, 'Marie Antoinette' is an essential companion for any lover of modern cinema.
