Marie Antoinette


It's amazing how, with only 3 movies, Sofia Coppola has so strongly defined her own universe in cinema: a passion for outsiders and people that don't fit, the soundtracks having an important role to define emotions and, above all, an ethereal atmosphere that doesn't give a damm about the script, instead focusing on producing mesmerizing beautiful scenes and making the viewers immerse themselves in its universe. I still think Lost In Translation is her best work to date, but this story of Marie Antoinette as a young and rebel girl who has to find her own place in the rigid life full of rules and gossips inside Versailles is not far behind.
