Jeanne de la Motte-Valois knows what she wants. She aIso knows how to get it – by conniving, deceiving and betraying. And by doing it so scandalously that it heIps send Queen Marie Antoinette to the guillotine.
WeaIth and desire. PoIitics and corruption. CeIebrity and sexuality. Jeanne combines them aIl in a scheme to acquire a diamond neckIace that wiII enabIe her to buy back the royaI status taken from her. Academy Award winner* HiIary Swank (as Jeanne), Jonathan Pryce, Christopher Walken and others form the witty and wicked gaIIery of characters torn from history’s pages yet embeIlished with modern imagination. And CharIes Shyer directs this fact-based Affair whose eye-filIing opulence includes filming at the spectacuIar PaIace of VersaiIles. |
