Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette

 


Marie Antoinette was a great film that we watched in class and I had fun watching it. Marie Antoinette is an Austrian women who turns into a French queen. The dresses were the thing that stood out to me the most because the colors were so vivid that it stood out to me. All the women had stunning dresses throughout the whole movie and whenever there was a big event, everyone had a vibrant color on. One of the most interesting things to me was the dynamic of the 2 men in her life, King Louis XV of France and Axel Fersen. Marie comes over to marry King Louis XV but the marriage is not what she thought it was going to be. King Louis does not show her love and they never do anything in the bed room. Marie's brother, Joseph II, came to visit and told King Louis that he has to do stuff in the bedroom. Marie and King Louis make love and have a baby together. But after that is when Axel Fersen comes into the picture. Marie and Axel meet at a party but nothing comes up until they see each other years later where they hit it off. The 2 start to have an affair where they make love multiple times. The aspect of multiple men was very interesting to me and showed the culture back then where you marry someone due to what your family wants and not you. Marie did not want to marry this man due to the fact, she did not even know who he was. That was the culture back then and this film did a good job of showing that. When she meets Axel, it is all game for her and she can not wait to get her hands on him. This 2 men dynamic for Marie was very interesting to me and it was a key theme throughout the whole movie.

Likelihood Of Hanging Out With Cars Characters

  Here are the main characters in Cars, and on a scale from 1 to 10 in likelihood of me hanging out with them. I have reasons for each and everyone of them but there’s some characters I have higher some characters I’ve lower. Let’s get into it. Lightning McQueen - 8.7/10 McQueen is one of your buddies that was really successful out of high school and was famous from a young age. He is a good guy to be around and is always trying to find ways to be atop of his sport. Good hang but gives off frat boy vibes at time.  Mater  - 9.5/10 Everyone needs themselves a Mater in their lives. Mater gives off really good energy and cares about the people in his friend group and family. The only negative thing about Mater is he could get you into some things that could backfire.  Sally - 9.1/10 Sally is really high on my list because she is relatable. She is the ex you dated in high school that your Mom really liked and always asks you about. Sally cares about the town and the peopl...

Likelihood Of Hanging Out With Get Out Characters

Here are the main characters in Get Out, and on a scale from 1 to 10 in likelihood of me hanging out with them. I have reasons for each and everyone of them but there’s some characters I have higher some characters I’ve lower. Let’s get into it. Chris - 8.2/10 Chris will definitely be one of the boys. Definitely a chiller dude but always wants to have a good time. He would fit well into the friend group. And obviously not being afraid of anything. Rose - 7.8/10 Rose reminds me of the crazy ex that your friend dated in high school once and it’s always hanging out around Thanksgiving or Christmas time. Rose is  definitely a fun hang but gives off high school bully vibes. Mom - 2.2/10 I feel like the mom would be a terrible hang and she would talk about her kids all the time. I feel like we just wouldn't be able to get along. And if she brings that teacup around me like she does most people then we would not be hanging for very long or very well to say the least. Dad - 5.1/10 I f...

Best Places To Watch A Movie

Image
       Watching movies has been a popular activities along friend or families for decades in the United States and around the world. There are a lot of different places to watch movies and I will get into the variety of places. I will not rank them but I will talk about each of them individually.  In Bed - 7.3/10 This is a great option due to the fact that not a lot of people are going to be around you and probably the location you watch the most movies at. It is a comfy spot but it is a danger spot due to the fact if you get too comfortable, you will miss the movie due to falling asleep. It is a place you get to chill, probably at the end of the night and a place to watch a movie.  On The Couch - 8.7/10 I think this is the best option because any time you watch on the couch it is an experience whenever you sit down. It can also be with friends or family compared to a bed where people are not getting in your bed unless a select few. Family gathers or by you...
