Biography

Marie Antoinette
Her name is synonymous with the French monarchy and all its excesses, but there is more to the story of Marie Antoinette than the simplistic tale of how a frivolous sovereign helped provoke the uprising that became the French Revolution. This two-hour film paints a surprising portrait, tracing her journey from the splendors of a childhood in the mighty Austro-Hungarian Empire to her final hours in a French prison cell.
