Marie Antoinette (2006)
A retelling of the story of France’s iconic but ill-fated queen, Marie Antoinette - from her betrothal and marriage to Louis XVI at fifteen to her reign as queen at nineteen and ultimately the fall of Versailles.
🏳️🌈 Sofia Coppola's lush historical pop-drama tracks the Queen's isolated court luxury, layering her intensely close, affectionate, and protective intimacy with Duchess de Polignac with rich sáfic subtext.
