Why Sofia Coppola did a great job with this movie!

Rating: Null/10 (21 October 2006)

Now everyone has a right to their opinion but when it comes down to perceiving this movie as a piece of comedy, thats just not right. I've only seen this movie yesterday and already I've read so many hate comments towards it... what were these people thinking!? its was fabulously well done film that no one should be able to criticize it. Sofia Coppola rolled a modern twist, thoughtful and emotional plot and wonderful characters all into one movie. She chose not to incorporate her beheading into the movie for the sole reason that its not supposed to be an exact replicate of the historical story. God when people say "oh its not the same, why would she do something like that....", it just makes me angry to think that they just can appreciate something for how it is and how someone else perceived the situation. And! plus she wrote the screenplay off of another story from another author... she did not just twist around the history of the story of Marie Antoinette but made it a much more enjoyable piece of historical fiction!!
