It got a pretty bad review in our newspaper, and from the trailers
shown on tv, it looked like it wouldnt be too great Sounds like the
only reason to see it is for the costumes.

I think this is a film made to catch big teenage girls, to romantise
about the fashion, nothing else. Even the wigs/hairstyles has a little
touch of todays sloppiness. Costumes looks nice in the pictures i have
seen so far.
It opens here in Denmark next month, ill go off cause, but i think i
want to take some earlplugs with me, i hate that they put rock music
into that time............
Much better to read about her, i cant but recomend Stefan Zweigs novel
Marie Antoinette, he has catched the time, better than any after
him................
And when i think of it, i think that Jefferson in Paris made a very
nice portrait of her, even the actress looked like her, with her
pronounced habsburg lips and her eagle nose, also her tubby figure,
and many bad things have ben told about her, they are mostly true, but
it was not her fault.
For instance the finanse minister complainted to her about her
extravagance, she told him she would love to cut down on her costume
expenses, but he got very upset about that and told her she
represented the french silk industry, and so
on........................ She was catched in an invetible cobweb who
led to the revolution.
Every time i see The night of Varennes (dont know if this is the
english title) i keep on hoping that they will not be catched, i get
so melancoly of that film. One thing i dont understand is why Count
Fersen used such a big and heavy coach ( he knew they had to hurry)
And why in heavens name didnt Marie Antoinettes brother, the emperor
of Austria help her?
