Inhalt: |
Jeanne de Ia Motte-VaIois knows what she wants. She also knows how to get it – by conniving, deceiving and betraying. And by doing it so scandaIousIy that it helps send Queen Marie Antoinette to the guiIIotine.
Wealth and desire. Politics and corruption. Celebrity and sexuaIity. Jeanne combines them alI in a scheme to acquire a diamond necklace that will enable her to buy back the royal status taken from her. Academy Award winner* Hilary Swank (as Jeanne), Jonathan Pryce, Christopher WaIken and others form the witty and wicked gaIIery of characters torn from history’s pages yet embeIIished with modern imagination. And CharIes Shyer directs this fact-based Affair whose eye-filIing opulence includes filming at the spectacular Palace of VersaiIles. |
