Canadian film about Marie-Antoinette



Last year there premiered a television mini-series about Marie-Antoinette in French Canada, starring Karine Vanasse. From what I hear, it is immensely more accurate than the Coppola debacle, with the French scholar Chantal Thomas as an advisor. I have not seen it yet but would like to sometime. Here are some stills from the film. (Thanks, M. de Brantigny!)

Looks like a film that may be worth seeing.

I understand that it is almost more of a documentary than a drama but I'll say no more until I see it myself!

Thank you! It looks like they filmed at Versailles too.

Actually, they were not allowed to film at Versailles. They used background pictures of Versailles. But it looks real, doesn't it?
