Well she got lucky twice, because Virgin Suicides was really good.

And incidentally, I wasn't that keen on Lost in Translation.

Virgin Suicides was flawless.
Lost In Translation was flawless.
I personally don't think Kirsten Dunst has the chops to play Marie Antoinette, maybe that's what's wrong with it.

I just don't get why people like him. He plays the same character in every one of his movies. I mean, I'm ugly and insecure, but you don't see me getting paid for it.

You see, the French have booed her most recent film, the Kirsten Dunst-starring Marie-Antoinette, at its recent premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. Mercilessly. (And, no, that's not a French-language pun on "thank you." Please. We have standards in our writing, much like we used to assume that Coppola had standards in her directing.)

As you’re reading this, do you have the impression that Sofia Coppola’s “Marie Antoinette” was booed here at Cannes? You can be excused for that impression, because the booing at the Wednesday morning press screening was widely reported, and I am one of those responsible, although I did not boo. Drudge headlined the boos and linked to a story in Variety saying they had “a Gallic accent,” leading to my speculations yesterday about whether “boo” sounds differently in French and English.

But now let’s step back and be fair. Yes, there was booing. But I was present at the screening and would guess not more than five people, maybe 10, booed. Many others applauded. Booing is always shocking to North American critics; I am not sure I have heard booing more than once or twice in all my years at the Toronto, Sundance, Telluride, Chicago, Montreal or New York festivals. In Europe, they boo all the time, sometimes because they think a film is bad, sometimes because it is (according to them) politically incorrect.
