Coppola’s girl’s film met with boos

Posted by: Administrator

MARIE-ANTOINETTE, the new picture starring the lovely KIRSTEN DUNST, directed by Sofia Coppola, premiered at CANNES at a peculiar 8:30 AM screening. As is expected by now of the Gallic crowd, the film was met with applause, followed by a loud series of boos. I’ve read many articles in the past about how the French love to be loud at Cannes – after all, it’s they’re festival – and love to tear down a film quite publicly. In a way, this reminds me of the theater going audiences of ages past – tomato-throwing in the Globe theater, for example. While I’ve never been a fan of Sofia Coppola’s films, I do admit that I’m excited to see her latest, if only because it stars Dunst and the trailer features a lovely New Order song on its soundtrack. -Jordan
