What would you say the point of the movie was? I haven't seen it yet

According to Sophia Coppola the director of the film, MA was both booed

We saw the movie last night, I missed them but my husband did see some

I can see why the movie was booed at Cannes. Not a good movie, poor
music choices, scenes dragged in many spots, it didn't have the fun of
a Knight's tale. There seemed to be no point to it for the most part

Hello all...
My name is Danielle and I am more of a lurker here on this list. My focus

The 1938 film was on tv last night and I caught snippets of it in

I saw it Friday morning and even though I'm usually a stickler for
historical accuracy, I could like it and appreciate it. As for the
music, both modern and 18th century music is used throughout. I thought
the modern music mostly works where it is placed. This film doesn't
pretend to be historic
It got a pretty bad review in our newspaper, and from the trailers
shown on tv, it looked like it wouldnt be too greatSounds like the
only reason to see it is for the costumes.

Due to reviews that sight its utter devotion to the superficial [the New
Yorker says that it doesn't try so much to make the Queen out to be like Paris
Hilton, as the film looks like it was MADE BY Paris Hilton] I might just wait
til the DVD. That will come soon enough.

And she wasn't producing male heirs one after the other. Not her
