Sofia Coppola revisits Marie Antoinette
The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that Sofia Coppola's Lost in Translation is the best American film in years. It has a transcendental quality that films by Murnau and Dreyer have, plus a deeply felt human connection as well as some good laughs. Yet I worry about overpraising the film, because I want the younger Coppola to have a long and prosperous career, with time and money enough to make more masterworks. But because of the success of Lost in Translation, she now has all eyes watching her, and too much is riding on her third film, Marie Antoinette, now shooting in France with Kirsten Dunst, Jason Schwartzman, Rip Torn and Molly Shannon. Hopefully she's artist enough to disbelieve the hype and just do her best work.
