When I think of eye candy, I think of Marie Antoinette by Sophia Coppola. So what that it wasn’t well received by the critics. My guess is that they were too distracted by the incredible set and costume design. I own the movie and every time I see it I am just in complete awe. It is so fascinating to see the 18th century Versailles come to life through the lens of Sophia Coppola. She obviously put her own spin on it by incorporating music of today, flashes of hot pink and glimpses of converse sneakers. The hot pink is genius because it, as a color, was not introduced into the fashion world until the 1950s which leaves Sophia’s unmistakable visual edge on a movie set in 18th Century France.
