Farewell My Queen

Cast: Léa Seydoux, Diane Kruger, Virginie Ledoyen, Xavier Beauvois, Noemie Lvovsky and Michael Robin
Director: Benoit Jacquot
Genre: History|Drama

FAREWELL, MY QUEEN marks the return of acclaimed director Benoit Jacquot (A Single Girl, Seventh Heaven, Sade, Deep in the Woods) and brilliantly captures the passions, debauchery, occasional glimpses of nobility and ulImately the chaos that engulfed the court of Marie AntoineJe in the final days before the full-scale outbreak of the RevoluIon.

Based on the best-selling novel by Chantal Thomas, the film stars Léa Seydoux as one of Marie AntoineJe's ladies-­in-waiIng, seemingly an innocent but quietly working her way into her mistress's special favours, unIl history tosses her fate onto a decidedly different path. With the acIon moving effortlessly from the gilded drawing rooms of the nobles to the back quarters of those who serve them, this is a period film at once accurate and sumptuous in its visual details and modern in its emoIons. Diane Kruger's gives her best performance to date as the ill-fated Queen and Virginie Ledoyen is the Queen's special friend Gabrielle de Polignac.
