Marie-AntoinettelThe Duchess

Get regal with this double bill of right royal dramas. Sofia Coppola’s flawed postmodern tableaux about the queen of cake and Saul Dibb’s analogous ‘princess of hearts’ drama based on Amanda Foreman’s

biography of Georgina, Duchess of Devonshire (1757-1806) go tiara to trumpet for an afternoon of privilege and inbreeding.
