Verdict: A two-hour version of Falco’s ‘Rock Me Amadeus’. That’s not to say I didn’t like it; embarrassingly, I quite like Falco’s ‘Rock Me Amadeus’. However, Falco was rocking the eighteenth-century costumes, baroque interiors and 80’s music well before Sofia Coppola got around to it.

The Marie Antoinette Soundtrack is the real outstanding work of the film. Suprisingly, the modern day music by the Aphex Twin, 80’s tracks and classical pieces don’t seem out of place at all. This soundtrack, and Late Night Tales by Air (which also contains a mixtures of 80’s tracks and classical pieces — it must be a french thing) is all I’ve been listening to recently. For some reason, both albums have a cool calm european sort of chill-out vibe thing happening, which works for me!
