FAREWELL MY QUEEN<\/h2>\nFAREWELL MY QUEEN<\/h2>\n| 2012 – 100′ – Romance, History, Drama, Biopic. FAREWELL MY QUEEN marks the return of acclaimed director Beno\u00eet Jacquot (A SINGLE GIRL, SEVENTH HEAVEN , IN THE WOODS) and brilliantly captures the passions, debauchery, occasional glimpses of nobility and ultimately the chaos that engulfed the court of Marie Antoinette in the final days before the full-scale outbreak of the Revolution. Based on the best-selling novel by Chantal Thomas, the film stars L\u00e9a Seydoux as one of Marie\u2019s ladies-in-waiting, seemingly innocent but quietly working her way into her mistress\u2019s special favors, until history tosses her fate onto a decidedly different path. With the action 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 emotions. Diane Kruger gives her best performance to date as the ill-fated Queen and Virginie Ledoyen is the Queen’s special friend Gabrielle de Polignac.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n FAREWELL MY QUEEN | 2012 – 100′ – Romance, History, Drama, Biopic.
