I would like to see the film, but living in Omaha, NE, I may have to wait for the video. It may be one of the films I watch just to see where accuracy in history and costuming goes out the window in favor of present-day esthetics. But sometimes those movies are fun, anyway.
I did preorder the book about the making of the film from Amazon.com, but wonder now if it will even be published, stateside, if the movie promises to tank. I wonder if the movie will be tinkered with between what was seen at Cannes and what we may see in October. From the brief clips and the online preview it looks as though the costumes are fairly accurate, but amped up in glamour to look attractive to present-day eyes. And, of course, there's nary a speck of dust to be seen!
