An delightful film.

Rating: 8/10 (2 March 2007)

An young, beautiful lady (Kristen Dusnt) is about to marry an extremely shy Louis 16 (Jason Schwartzman) in the year of 1793 in France. After's she married, she discovers a world of hostilities and confidence. In a world, where people just judge each other without knowing the truth. She changes people around her and it's becomes a party between her friends. But her life is slowly changing, where the revolution is near.
Written and Directed by Sofia Coppola (Lost in Translation, The Virgin Suicides) made an unique, fascinating, if sometimes flawed film that is beautifully filmed by Lance Arcott (Being John Malkovich, Adapation). Rich performances truly highlights the movie. Fans of Peroid Pictures might be distracted by the occasionally use of rock music at times. But it is also surprisingly quiet and slow moving at times.
DVD has an fine anamorphic Widescreen (1.85:1) transfer and an good-Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound. DVD includes:Behind the Scenes featurette, Crib-Style featurette, Deleted Scenes and the Original Theatrical Trailer. This film was a box office disappointment but it will surely found life on DVD. This is an often funny picture with some dramatic moments. Executive Produced by her Oscar-Winning father:Francis Ford Coppola (The Godfather Trilogy, Apocalyspe Now, The Outsides). It won an Oscar for Best Costume Design. (****/*****).
