A solid enough tale of the last few

A solid enough tale of the last few days of the French monarchy. It's beautifully shot and starts of promisingly enough but does trail into the soap opera territory as it proceeds.

A very impressive rendition of the collapsing old

A very impressive rendition of the collapsing old order during the onset of the French Revolution. Presented through the eyes of a young female servant to the queen, I thought that the director must have been a woman, which is actually incorrect. This is not a piece of analysis that explains the forces that brought on the upheaval. Our point of view is the interior of the palace as the governing classes have to decide how to react to the changing social order. And no, Marie Antoinette, interpreted by Diane Kruger, does not advise the masses to eat cake if they can’t find bread. If you want to see masses breaking into palaces and beheadings this is the wrong movie. The queen’s young reader, an excellent Lea Seydoux, is trying to understand the world around her, both the changing political climate and also the different choices of sexual attraction.

Such a good film. I love the authentic

Such a good film. I love the authentic portrayal of this period and of Versailles and Marie Antoinette. It plays on gossip but it feels very authentic despite that. Diane Kruger makes for a very humanized and layered Marie Antoinette. A real treat.
