Marie Antoinette

A punk fantasy about a real historical figure and era: Oscar-winning costumes that blend the vibes of the 18th century and contemporary high fashion, the real Versailles, baroque music alongside The Cure, and a whimsical Kirsten Dunst — like an antique doll, somewhere between an aristocrat and a capricious high school girl. According to the story, she — the 14-year-old daughter of the Austrian empress — is married off to France to strengthen international ties. Life at court is far from sweet, but Marie finds comfort in cakes, gambling, and buying luxurious dresses. The French Revolution is just around the corner.
