Not about love... but about what? The series left a mixed impression. Logically, it should be negative, since the only obvious advantage of Antoinette' is the beauty of filming and costumes (as well as many actors). Apparently, just this external side and forces fans of the era still do not give up viewing. The rest is pretty sad.
Little intrigue, little interesting characters, little plot, little feelings. The whole series is about relationships, and what they are is so completely unclear. Even in terms of orientation... (You won’t say that the question of the orientation of the main characters is inappropriate in the melodrama??) The Queen looks at men and women alike, but her feelings for anyone are completely unbelievable. Can there be a high score in a melodrama in which the main character does not love anyone? Louis XVI is more likeable in this regard, although the first series also caused a lot of questions about him and his brother. To me, the authors just dumped all the gossip and rejoice, but for hints forgot about the normal disclosure of characters. Almost all season, the main mission of everyone is consuming marriages, but what is the main problem of these young people, the viewer should guess for himself! Is it physiology? Psychology? You don't agree? Little training ' on cats '?
And good, there would be something else in the series, but there is a little bit about politics. And even depravity is shown without details...
I will watch the second season, of course, in the hope that something interesting will finally begin there. One of the storylines gives a good reference to the side of the tragedy, which is usually a little talked about. But in general, the series is not sufficiently historical and not sufficiently thought out in terms of artistic fiction. Strictly without fish.
