I watched this movie, some 9 years ago, because the poster is a sight for sore eyes; Kirsten Dunst can act; and l had heard or read, that the Queen of France, Marie Antoinette, had arrogantly said that her peasant subjects, who couldn't afford ordinary bread, should eat brioche instead. And that that had grave consequences for her. Also, the film's writer-director, Sofia Coppola (cousin of Nicolas Cage), is highly regarded. Also, 'Marie Antoinette' reminded me of 'Amadeus' (1984; PG), which is set in a similar time, and which l thoroughly enjoyed. Anyway, l missed the point of Coppola's film. Perhaps when l revisit it now, after so long, I'll see what it's getting at.
