In the new movie, Marie Antoinette, it was supposedly clear that they were about to be executed. However, all I saw was them leaving the palace and Kristen Dunst "saying goodbye" to her garden at the end. Where exactly was I supposed to infer that they were going to be beheaded?

If you didn't know the history of Marie Antoinette and King Louis XVI, it would be difficult to understand her being beheaded and why. The movie was vague, not particularly good, nor interesting. The scenery was spectacular, the costumes for the period, unbelievably beautiful, photography was outstanding, dialog difficult to understand at best, and a long couple of hours sitting in ones seat at the theater. Is it worth the money to go and see it? Wait, next week in will be on video and you can rent it.

not a perfect movie, but it's a very good movie about one of history's most iconic figures.
I think I will start on the + side as the list is short. I saw this at an advanced screening and was rather dissapointed. The visuals were stunning, the scenery and the look and feel of France in the time period.
Now that list is done, The basic direction of the movie had no spark or sense of interest that made you actually WANT to know or at least be curious as to how she deals with her life. I would say 70% of the movie is watching somebody or something walk from one side of the screen to the other with little to no dialog. The actors did well to very well with what they were given, but it did not seem they were given much. While many of the historical facts were in there, they really did not use them to advance or integrate them into the plot. Instead of seeing the interaction of the main character with the many different facets of politics and/or personal life that ended in her demise, we simply see a movie of a semi-lonely party girl who apparently loses everything for no reason.
If you truly are a fan of the scenery of France, this movie is for you. However, if you are interested in knowing about the life, times, and politics of Mari Antoinette, you will find a more interesting tale on the History Channel!!!

i do no longer likely know how i've got faith approximately it. The costumes and hair are relaxing yet Kirsten Dunst as an actress to me is... blah. the tale is a great one in spite of the undeniable fact that. i've got study it in background and studied King Louis XVI, so it grew to become into interesting to make certain her area of the tale.
