The Shamus points to five silent microshorts starring Sofia Coppola, designed to promote her line of canned sparkling wine. I bet this is the kind of thing that will really infuriate those who hated Marie Antoinette on the grounds that Daddy’s Little Girl was getting away with self-indulgent murder. I loved Marie Antoinette, and as far as alcoholic beverages distributed in Red Bull canisters go, I think Sofia is pretty good. I’ve embedded my favorite of the clips above; you’ll find the rest here.
“I loved Marie Antoinette,”–Karina, in my estimation, this is by far the scariest statement you’ve ever typed. Ever. Ever.
LOVED IT. Unapologetically.
Me, too. But I’m not sure I want to see it again. A second viewing might ruin it.
We might have to have an in-depth conversation about this sometime. Or, you might need to send me every piece you’ve written about it. I’d love to be convinced of this film’s pricelessness. I really would.
