MARIE ANTOINETTE

FILM MAKER: SOFFIA COPPOLA

Musical Loans: 1st sequence: "What ever happened", by The Strokes; 2nd sequence: "Ceremony" by New Order
Non diegetic: it's a kind of back-ground music that help viwers understand the personality of the main female character of the film.
Non Integrated music: it accompanies the image but it's not integrated in the plot.
Divergent music: it contrast due to not belonging to the agre represented in the movie, the 18th century.
Sequence music: they are two sequences during the development of the film.
Music in a first plane in the 1st sequence and in a second plane in the 2nd sequence. The use of music that belongs to the 80's and 90's in this film is explained by the intention of the film maker, S. Coppola, to present the character of Marie Antoinette as a naif and adolescent Queen, at the same time it reinforces the non-conformism before the reality in which she had to live. It's a good example of anachronistic music.
