This is the first review I have posted that was not written by Frank Nugent and the first that really hammers the movie. I wonder what it all means.

Photo Shoppers — Wouldn’t this be a great headdress on Nancy Pelosi? Ms. “Let them eat cake” of the No Oil crowd?

LOL. I thought this was about the recent “Marie Antoinette” with Kirsten Dunst. A real POS. I was foolish enough to buy a ticket for it in a moment of utter boredom (thinking at least I’d be entertained by the depictions of the French Royal Court), but it was so bad I walked out.....

"The picture took six months to make, and when it was finished, Mayer invited me to the first showing in the studio theater. I sat with Mayer and Shearer, and behind us sat the executive might of the studio, accompanied by their secretaries and (or) mistresses. The picture seemed to last forever, and halfway through I began to despair not only of my own performance but of Shearer's and everyone else's. At last it was over and the lights came on. There was a long silence. No one said a word, although some of the secretaries ostentatiously snuffled into their handkerchiefs. From behind, someone clapped three times, then stopped. 'After a film like that, L.B., what is there to say?' was the only comment I heard."

- from the autobiography of Robert Morley
