      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    In order to secure friendship between Austria and France, 14-year-old Marie Antoinette (Dunst) was pledged to marry 15-year-old Louis XVI (Schwartzman), and at the ripe-old age of 19 she became queen. With all eyes upon her, the queen settled into her privileged life in the Palace of Versailles, totally unaware of what was going on in the outside world around her. Based on the book Marie Antoinette: The Journey by Antonia Fraser. (Tricia Spears)

    DVD Picture:
    Besides a slight haze over the anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD

    Reason #93 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    The technical levels of the articles are far beyond most other non-industry publications on home theatre. While I read many of them, WSR is very unique in its coverage, reviews, articles, and the added content of the Web edition. For all of those reasons, WSR is a must-subscribe for any HT enthusiast, and that is why I read it!
