Empty and flashy

Although the background of "The Peerless Lady" is the eve of the French Revolution, except for the angry people who broke into the palace at the end, there is no "common suffering" at all. In the film, director Sofia Coppola adopts a watered-down narrative, rococo style and even rock soundtrack. From the intricately styled folding fans and shoes to the flamboyantly decorated walls of the deep palace, the film is extremely ornate. Among them, architecture, interior decoration, clothing and painting, the Rococo style that was popular in France during the Louis XV period is the film's visual inspiration. The biggest feature. With a cold and delicate shooting technique, "Peerless Beauty" reproduces the moment of tranquility on the eve of the transformation before the sudden change of the situation, the fairy-tale palace, the green grass, the soft and extravagant palace life, the empty and undecidable behind the gorgeous sensory enjoyment. Lost in life.

    I went to see it for the clothes... the director really can’t grasp the whole point of the film... but this movie only needs clothes.
