Marie Antoinette

You might call it a guilty pleasure, but we’ve been pretty excited about the upcoming release of Sophia Coppola’s new movie, Marie Antoinette. In fact, Justin has been counting down the days to the October 20th opening.

Starring Kirsten Dunst and Jason Schwartzman, the movie is a contemporary look at the youth of the maligned, passionately debated and often misunderstood, Marie Antoinette.

Although we’re a big fan of Coppola and Schwartzman’s work, we’re most excited about the soundtrack’s mix of modern and classical pieces. Here’s the original soundtrack listing:

Disc: 1
1. “Hong Kong Garden” - Siouxsie & The Banshees
2. “Aphrodisiac” - Bow Wow Wow
3. “What Ever Happened” - The Strokes

    i’m actually disgusted. i still wanna give it a listen. bands and a genre that i like diluted down to singles for a soundtrack. i dont think people are getting the whole scope. i.e. how do you just put on Plainsong when the whole original is such a classic. i’m not even heavy into the cure.

    nghia - are you drunk again?

    the soundtrack looks great. I knew it was going to be good when I heard new order’s age of consent on the trailer last year.

    I also wanted to check out dustin o’halloran’s (devics) piano solos.

    anyone know why the film was boo’d at cannes?

    I don’t own either of those, but I see where you’re coming from now.

    well, good soundtracks don’t always mean good movies….apparently….

    saw the flick this weekend and was not impressed. good job of directing and some great scene shots, but the adaptation was very lacking of substance outside the beauty of Versailles and the opulence of the time.

    the modern songs seemed very forced into the plot - almost like she created scenes just to put poppy new songs over them. Who really wants 5 minutes of movie or her taking the carriage back to the palace after an all night of partying?

    it is very disappointing as any type of historical biography of her and really dwells too much on her extravagance and lack of compassion for the people in her early years.

    perhaps there will be a sequel where they actually talk about how humanitarian she actually was in her later years and how her death was actually more of a result of her standing up for her royalist ideals and not for her excessiveness (as the movie suggests).

    Apparently the Italians are still not too fond of the French….rent this one -
