The new Marie Antoinette trailer (Sofia Coppola’s new film) is online… and it is quite possible the most annoying trailer I’ve seen in months. It’s no secret around here that Kristen Dunst is not one of my favorite actresses in the world (she’s lost a lot of points with me because of her work in the Spider-Man films), but even though Elizabethtown was a let down of a film, she did pretty well in it. But Kristen Dunst is not the problem with the Marie Antoinette trailer.
The Music!!!! Good grief how I HATE HATE HATE it when period pieces use modern rock/alternatice/pop music for their trailers. Trailers are supposed to give us a feel for the film… and I don’t see how playing some modern bouncy pop song gives me any sort of sense for the year 1774. That alone bugged the hell out of me for the entire trailer… that basically gave you nothing else. It sucked.
Anyway, if you hate yourself and want to subject yourself to the Marie Antoinette trailer you can go here.
