Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Based on the book Marie-Antoinette: The Journey by Antonia Fraser, Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette is a powerful and sympathetic film of the tragic life of France's iconic and misunderstood eighteenth-century Queen. Shot entirely in France, much on location at the Palace of Versailles, the film is visually stunning, bringing together a cast that includes Kirsten Dunst, Jason Schwartzman, Rip Torn, and Marianne Faithful, and the extraordinary costume designs of Oscar-winner Milena Canonero (Barry Lyndon, A Clockwork Orange).
A moving story of naivety and responsibility, reputation and misunderstanding, Marie Antoinette is a film that Sofia Coppola has wanted to make for years. In a book that is at once the personal chronicle of a major work and a beautiful tribute to the potential of film, featuring elements of the director's own screenplay as well as captivating stills, the director's personal photos, and original designs for costumes and sets, Marie Antoinette is an essential companion for any lover of modern cinema.

I believe this book is meant to be bought by collectors and the people who LOVED Coppola's Marie Antoientte. It's not meant for people who want the 'poster pictures' of the movie or who are simply 'curious'. The pictures are beautiful, even though their quality is not the best one, but they will not interest or even impress you unless you are a fan. As a fan, i loved it, but if i had just wanted a book with the prettiest MA pictures, i don't think it'd have fulfilled my expectations.
One of the nicest things in this book is that you see parts of the script that didn't become actual scenes, or some dialogues there were cut in the final version.
For fans, i definitely recommend it. For the curious, only if you don't know what to do with the extra money.

Completely beautiful! I loved this movie, and everytime I watch it I keep hoping there will be a directors cut 2 disc dvd or something, but nothing has shown up, then I found out about this book. Its little clips of the script and then pictures of the Palace of Versailles, or the characters. Sophia Copolla made a visual masterpiece in my opinion, and the book takes you through the movie easily. If you were a fan of this movie, you need this companion book.

I was so disappointed with this book.I love, love, love the movie and was so excited to get this book and see all of the pictures. Unfortunately the pictures are all small and very grainy and have no fine detail at all. When you watch the movie you see all of these fantastic vibrant colors and there is nothing like that here. Plus the script is not complete and jumps around. I would suggest saving your money and doing what another reviewer said, which is go online and print the pictures yourself. You will get a much better selection and picture quality that way. [...].

I purchased this beautiful book before seeing the movie. I loved this movie -- it is visually breathtaking. The book is a wonderful addition to your collection. I am an avid costume buff, and adore Marie Antoniette, so had to have it for my personal library. The soft colors are soothing, easy on the eye and delicious! See the costumes, the scenery, the palace, the food, the gold leaf... a quote from the movie sums it up nicely, "This is Versailles!" If you purchase this book you will not be disappointed. Visit France without leaving your home! Go ahead -- Mon dieu -- buy it already! Enjoy!
