Marie Antoinette

When I think of this movie, it’s just a blur of pastel cakes and shoes set to Adam and the Ants, and I’m not mad at it. With this cult classic, Sofia Coppola solidified her signature sensibility as one of the most recognizable in the cinematic canon. Her candy-hued anachronistic take on Marie Antoinette’s reign is anchored by muse Kirsten Dunst’s wry performance and elevated by a stacked soundtrack of Eighties hits. Equally reviled and revered upon its release, it’s become a bold example of creative liberty grounded by an auteur’s excellence. Chuck Taylors in 18th-century France FTW. – Lina... Runs Oct. 26-29.
