In short: Based on the best-selling novel by Chantal Thomas, the film stars Léa Seydoux as one of Marie’s ladies-in-waiting, seemingly innocent but working her way into her mistress’s special favors, until history tosses her fate onto a different path. With the action moving from the drawing rooms of the nobles to the back quarters of those who serve, this is a period film at once accurate and sumptuous. Diane Kruger gives her best performance to date as the ill-fated Queen and Virginie Ledoyen is the Queen’s special friend Gabrielle de Polignac.

In short: With epic proportions of Shakespearean tragedy, the film follows two unique characters whose rags-to-riches success stories reveal the innate virtues and flaws of the American Dream. The film begins with the family constructing the biggest house in America, a 90,000 sq. ft. palace. Over the next two years, their empire, fueled by the real estate bubble and cheap money, falters to the economic crisis. Major changes in lifestyle and character ensue within the cross-cultural household of family members and domestic staff.
