For a grand outing in one of the city’s most beautiful treasures, enjoy an elegant dinner in the Legion Cafe, then take in a film at the Florence Gould Theater. To complement the exhibition Marie-Antoinette and the Petit Trianon at Versailles, we are pleased to present a series of films about history’s real queens and “drama queens.” Dinner seatings start at 6 p.m., and the film starts at 8 p.m.
Marie Antoinette (2006, 123 min.)
Based on Antonia Fraser's award-winning biography, Marie Antoinette: The Journey, Sofia Coppola’s film, starring Kirsten Dunst, is an impressionistic retelling of Marie-Antoinette's life as a young queen in the opulent and eccentric court at Versailles. From shoes to scandals, this movie follows the young queen as she matures from teenage bride to young woman and ill-fated queen of France.
