I think of Marie Antoinette as an older piece of history and that is what I thought I would see when we watched the movie, but Sofia Coppola put a modern-day spin on things and rearranged the past to fit the future. A lot of sceptics and critics thought that if the movie was called Marie Antoinette, it should follow the history it comes from and parallel the things that happened back then, but Sofia Coppola had a different take on how she wanted to represent her character. She wanted to show the individual side of Marie and not the Queen of France during the French Revolution. The way she shows the audience that she is just a normal person is a very clever way to connect the past, which can be somewhat boring to watch for some, makes the film better. I also like the music she uses to bring the movie into the present while the costumes and setting remind us that it is truly a movie about the history of Marie Antoinette.
