Great concept with great sfx makeup but executed in a slow paced way.
Also all that preparation of setting up Rosaleen to be a strong protagonist only for her to be the damsel in distress at the end is so disappointing.

Reed wearing the most attention seeking neon 80s style outfits and constant yelling at Valerie just rubs salt in the wound of her not being able to find him. AND Mayas such nonchalant attitude towards Reed is so off putting. It makes Valerie seem so so paranoid and untrusting.
I love this so much
I think this is going to be one of my new favourites. This film blends together modern cinema tropes from chic flics and romcoms with a period piece about the life on Marie Antoinette amazingly.
The balance of parties and joy with the looming pressures of royalty and the impending overthrowing rebellion of the French people just goes to show how great the producers of this film really are.
It builds up such complex characters through costuming, sets and dialogue. …
