Marie Antoinette -- An electrifying yet intimate re-telling of the turbulent life of history's favorite villainess, Marie Antoinette, who married France's young and indifferent King Louis XVI.

Lavish biography of the French queen who "let them eat cake."

Marie Antoinette gives herself over to the pleasures of life in Versailles, caring little of the political intrigue that surrounds her, including an affair with a Swedish nobleman. Meanwhile, political power plays are throwing France into chaos.
