I know, I totally want to be wearing giant, swishy skirts with miles of ruffles and Belgian lace. Seriously. Sure, it's totally impractical, but it was sooooo pretty.
I want to see it.... everyone I know who has has said I should :) It seems like I'm on a French Revolution kick with this and Rose of Versailles [yay for french dvd's!].
hmm...now I may just have to see this...I usually avoid these types just well out of principal and the reviews weren't much help...darn too many movies i want to see ;_;
Some people have complained about the modern day 80's soundtrack in a period movie, but the way they did it was perfect. It really gave you the feeling of a rebellious teenage girl who was bored out of her mind. ^_^ The movie also has a very slow pace, which I didn't mind at all, but people who are into fast-moving films will probably be bored silly. As I am used to shoujo manga, it totally worked for me. ^_^
And there are a few moments which I swear are straight out of the Rose of Versailles manga. Eeeeeeee! ^_^ (Alas, no Oscar and Andre though...)
Imagine how it was for me, I LOOOOOVE pink! I was nearly fainting from the prettiness. ^_^
All those desserts were so beautiful- and I don't even have a strong sweet tooth. It sure makes regular life seem blah now though- mac & cheese and Little Debbie snack cakes don't really seem so jazzy once you see the palace of Versailles.
