Let Them Eat Cake

The first time I saw Marie Antoinette was by chance and I was immediately captured by the music (and Mops the little dog), the amazingly detailed clothes, and obviously the entire fantasy. I watched it last night for the second time and the feeling was the same... I have way too many favorite scenes but I love the garden party, the masquerade ball, and Louis is always awkwardly hilarious.








Music
I loved the infusion of pop music with classical music, and it is such a fresh idea for historically based films (not that this movie is 100% accurate), but it made it interesting, fun, and exciting. 

What Ever Happened? by The Strokes

I Want Candy by Bow Wow Wow
