Critiques (1)
Marie Antoinette (1755-1793) has always been a rococo treat for playwrights, writers, and filmmakers. The daughter of Marie Thérèse, who became the French queen and ended up on the guillotine? Who could resist? I'm really not worried that interest in romanticizing the biography of this queen will ever wane. If by chance it does, there are always parts of the story of Madame de Pompadour and Madame du Barry (the excellent Gaia Weiss from Vikings). The current series follows the birth of Versailles. Emilia Schüle in the lead role is an absolute darling, a great actress who has demonstrated her qualities, for example, in the Ku'damm saga. The set design is fairy tale-like, and the drama is written so that the modern viewer understands it emotionally. And that's about it. Anyone who enjoys anything from before the French Revolution can be satisfied; there's no need to fret over historical inaccuracies - although history itself writes the biggest twists. Did you think a black man at the court of Louis XVI was woke nonsense? Look up the biography of composer Chevalier de Saint-Georges (1745-1799). Films/series brimming with opulent splendor and libertine morality are a category unto themselves. Is the new series better or worse than previous contributions to the subgenre? It certainly holds its own and can boldly be placed alongside Farewell, My Queen (2012), Marie Antoinette (2006), and Marie Antoinette (1938).
