comment
Marie Antoinette is a 2006 American historical drama/biopic film written and directed by Sofia Coppola. It is loosely inspired by the life of Austrian-born French queen consort Marie-Antoinette (played by Kirsten Dunst), based off a biography by Antonia Fraser, Marie Antoinette: The Journey.The film follows the fifteen year old princess on her way to the French Court to be married to future king Louis XVI, her reign as queen alongside Louis, and through the beginning of The French Revolution, when she and her husband were forced to relocate to Paris.The film won the 2006 Academy Award for Best Costume Design.Not to be confused with the 1938 film, the 1989 film and the 2022 series.

comment
Artistic Licence – History: As explained above in Anachronism Stew, the film, while it shows Sofia Coppola has done her research, takes many liberties with the clothing in order to follow the film's aesthetic. Madame du Barry is dressed in a rather showy, almost gaudy way and lacks manners, mostly to show that she is from a different social class than all the other courtiers. The real Madame du Barry was known to be graceful and well-mannered, which was pretty much a requirement since she used to be a courtesan for noblemen, and her elegance was renowned even by her enemies. She was also genuinely hurt by Marie-Antoinette's snobbiness towards her, and was said to have claimed several times she only wished to be her friend. Suffice to say, she would have never burped during a dinner, especially during the dinner where she would be introduced to the Dauphine. Strangely enough, the movie leaves out Princess Adelaide, the eldest of Louis and Marie's aunts who was still alive and living at Versailles. She was not only considered the prettiest of Louis XV's daughters and therefore resented Marie for stealing her spotlight and her father's affection, but she was also the main force behind pitting Marie against Madame du Barry. It was not the Comtesse de Provence who had a child before Marie and Louis, but the Comtesse d'Artois. The Provence couple actually never had any children.

comment
Papa Wolf: Despite being portrayed somewhat as a wimp and dork, King Louis is fiercely protective of his wife and children. When the revolting peasants descend upon Versaille, while the royal family and their entourage are gathered together in the parlor, after hearing a crash somewhere in the palace, Louis immediately gets up from his chair placing himself as a shield in front of a frightened Marie and their sobbing children.

Dirty Old Man: Louis XV. Truth in Television, as he was a sex maniac even by French standards. Hell, his Establishing Character Moment is to ask one of his ministers about Marie's bosom, and when the minister says he hasn't seen it, he laughs and says it would be the first place he would look at.

Spoiled Sweet: Marie and her Ladies in Waiting indulge in many luxuries, yet all remain genuinely kind hearted and well meaning people, having no idea of the plight of the peasants. After finally learning how the poor are suffering, she does try to make some concessions to ease her subjects suffering... Unfortunately, by that time, it's too late to save her and her husband.

Kick the Dog: Along with her clothes and possessions, Marie Antoinette's dog Mops is forcibly taken from her when she enters France. The princesses who arrive late to Marie Antoinette's dressing ceremony appear to have done so on purpose, to force her to stand naked in front of the crowd for as long as possible.

Dated History
 Marie Antoinette (2006) / int_3e8c87a3
comment
Dated History When the film was made, the relationship between Axl Von Fersen was considered to be speculative. Rumors flew that they were lovers, but royalists always dismissed this as slander, much like other rumors about Marie Antoinette's lovers with far less veracity. That said, it was always clear the two had affection for one another, and in 2021 X-Ray studies of their correspondence revealed that their relationship was likely far more intense and lasted longer than the film portrays. He may well have lived with her for a time and may have been the father of some or all of Marie Antoinette's children.

Casting Gag: As Sofia Coppola is the daughter of a famous director, she cast many children of famous film professionals: Jason Schwartzman (Louis XVI) is the son of actress Talia Shire and producer Jack Schwartzman (and Sofia Coppola's first cousin). Asia Argento (Madame du Barry) is the daughter of director Dario Argento. Mary Nighy (Princess de Lamballe) is Billy Nighy's daughter. Katrine Boorman (The English Duchess) is the daughter of director John Boorman. Danny Huston is of course son of John Huston and grandson of actor Walter Huston. Io Bottoms, who played one of the ladies-in-waiting, is daughter of actor Sam Bottoms and Susan Arnold.

Overly Long Gag: When she first moves to Versailles, Antoinette struggles to get used to protocols. This is reflected in a scene where she tries to get dressed, but is told that she needs to be dressed by the highest-ranking member in the room. As more and more people come into the room, she's introduced to each "highest ranking" lady until they're outranked.

No Animals Allowed: Marie has her beloved dog Mops taken from her upon entering France because it's proof of her original nationality and it would be bad for the marriage. Marie does get other dogs, though. Ironically, in real life, Antoinette's lobbying to get Mops returned was successful, and her beloved pug lived out his life in luxury, dying before the revolution.

The Queen's Latin: Played with, despite the location and period the film was set in. The actors speak in their normal accents: Kirsten Dunst (Marie Antoinette) speaks in a General American accent, Rip Torn (Louis XV) speaks in a mild Texas accent, Steve Coogan (Ambassador Mercy) speaks with a British accent, Jason Schwartzman speaks with a General American accent. Played straight for the Australian Rose Byrne (Duchess de Polignac) and Judy Davis (Comatose de Noailles); they both use R.P. British accents.

Good-Times Montage: I Want Candy by Bow Wow Wow, played over an orgiastic montage of dresses, shoes, jewellery, champagne, gambling, Ladurée confections and adorable dogs. Played with in that it's used to illustrate how unhappy Marie Antoinette is in the restrictive French court and her marriage.

Slut-Shaming: The French court has an extremely low opinion of Madame du Barry, Louis XV's mistress, because she was born a commoner and used to work in a brothel.

comment
Futureshadowing: When Marie comes to the balcony to greet the mob, she bows her head, but does it in a fashion where she stoops her head so low that we see her neck and hands spread cross-wise. This alludes to the pose condemned rolled into the guillotine would assume, alluding to her eventual fate in history which the film does not show.

Composite Character: The count and countess of Provence, Louise's brother and sister-in-law, share little with the historical Provence couple and are closer in story and character to the count and countess of Artois, Louis's youngest brother and sister-in-law.

Happily Ever Before
 Marie Antoinette (2006) / int_e55c5f35
comment
Happily Ever Before: It's a subdued version, as the Revolution is in full swing, but the film ends on a pensive note and Antoinette being forced to leave Versailles, much as she had been forced to go there in the first place. It skips over the subsequent horrors for the main character, including a failed escape attempt, her husband's execution, being separated from her children, her own humiliating trial and finally, her own execution. So, far happier than the end for the real life Marie Antoinette.

Improbable Hairstyle: Both anachronistic and maintenance. Marie has a modern haircut with layers and obvious highlights - most likely intentional on the director's part (see Anachronism Stew above). The film also shows her with some of her more famous over-the-top hairstyles.

Never a Self-Made Woman: Serious Business for a princess. Marie is constantly reminded that if she fails to produce children, then her marriage can be annulled and she can be shipped back to Austria. She's even heckled by members of the French court.

Shown Their Work: Sofia Coppola took a few quotes directly from the biography by Lady Antonia Fraser: Louis XV's comments about Marie's bosom when she arrives in France. When Madame du Barry sends diamonds as a gift, Marie says she already has enough. Marie's first and only words to Madame du Barry being a comment on the amount of people at Versailles. When Marie is throwing a party and she explains to Louis that he said she could throw one, but didn't specify how long for.
