I saw it with Sofia there, a few weeks ago for an industry screening - it was one of the worst films Ive ever seen - not for being different - but for being BORING - and going absolutely no where - seriously - her lingering shots, her abrubt jumps in time, and the horrible end - all add up to one horrendously bad film.

i agree the movie sucked. coppola's valley girl antoinette was a joke. why didn't she just make another remake of clueless instead of making a historical piece? completely inaccurate portrayal of marie antoinette. i can't believe such a horrendous piece was previewed in cannes. i guess being coppola's daughter can get you places even when you make absolute flops.
The film that started... nothing...

Poor Sofia! "Stupid people... one day the world will realize what a genius move I made with 'Marie Antoinette." Interviewed countless times regarding her 'bold and daring' treatment of the material, Coppola has failed to deliver upon what she had set out to do: reveal the woman, and the queen, behind the myth. Instead, she only perpetuates the myth. Never once do we feel Dunst's MA is queen of the most powerful nation in Europe. Nor do we understand why it is the public called for her blood. The film views like a slick montage of well-dressed tourists sleepwalking through a museum while personnel rushes cast and crew along so as not to delay the public's admittance. Gotta pay the rent after all! And what of the little princess Marie Therese? What a prodigy! She speaks French! I wonder whether or not her English speaking mum could understand her? Sofia, your ego has got the best of you. We the cinema-going public can certainly appreciate originality or innovation when we see it. WHEN WE SEE IT. Shame on you, Sofia.

Horrible to YOU, so dont state it was and is a horrible movie when you and a only a handful of pple may think so. It was different movie and it takes a special artistic person to appreciate a movie like it.
