Trivia:
Sofia Coppola had originally wanted Angelina Jolie for the role of Madame Du Barry, but turned it down to star in The Good Shepherd (2006), then Catherine Zeta-Jones was considered. The role eventually went to Asia Argento. more
Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: The palace shown at the beginning of the film after Marie is awakened by a maid drawing open the curtains of her bedroom is neither Hofburg Palace, where she was born, or Schönbrunn Palace, where she was raised, but the Upper Belvedere portion of Belvedere Palace in Vienna, which, although owned by Empress Maria Theresa, was mainly used for social functions. more
Quotes:
Marie-Antoinette: I shall never forget that you are reponsible for my happiness
Duc de Choiseul: And that of France

FAQ

Why did Sophia Coppola choose to base the film specifically on Antonia Fraser's book?
Why was Marie Antoinette the only one who wanted to clap at the opera? (and why the second time we see her clapping, no one else would?)

absolutely gorgeous, 28 June 2006
10/10
Author: matt_coody from United States

i know some people have said that it is entirely eye candy (and what amazing eye candy at that) but it actually does an artful adaptation of the book, which i read before seeing the film. it includes many of the important, beautiful, and sad parts of the book without getting bogged down with all the particulars and names like many of the period movies do. the soundtrack is great, a clever blend of 18th century and modern...the parts are well acted and the American accents rarely detract. If you want a historical account of her life, read the book...if you want Versailles and Marie Antoinette brought to life in a heart-breakingly beautiful fashion, go see this film...it is truly one of the most visually stunning movies i have ever seen.
