    Oh, dear...

    ...I'm hoping that "Marie Antoinette" is better than it sounds from Andrew O'Hehir's report. An 18th century period picture set to 21st century rock/pop? Er, I'm not so sure I like that trick. Is there any plot or story to the film? The trailer looked so promising, too. Just hope it doesn't disappoint too much when it finally hits the US theaters, re-edited or not.
