About

Marie Antoinette leaves Austria for Versailles to marry the future Louis XVI and confront strict court protocol and pressure to produce an heir.

Sofia Coppola's historical drama follows the young Archduchess Marie Antoinette (Kirsten Dunst), daughter of Empress Maria Theresa of Austria, who travels to France to marry Louis-Auguste (Jason Schwartzman), the Dauphin and future Louis XVI. At the Palace of Versailles she enters a court bound by strict protocol, where she meets King Louis XV (Rip Torn) and his mistress Madame du Barry (Asia Argento).

The couple faces pressure to produce an heir, while Marie Antoinette struggles with court etiquette and the hostility of courtiers who see her as a foreigner. She finds company with the Princess de Lamballe and the Duchess of Polignac, and refuses to interact with du Barry. Around her are figures including Ambassador Mercy (Steve Coogan) and the Comtesse de Noailles (Judy Davis).
