Well, like I said, it was just the promotional materials that made me think this, and hearing your recommendation I'm more eager to see the movie (thank goodness for Netflix) and see what Coppola made of Marie Antoinette's life.
I've read other works by Fraser. The Gunpowder Plot was similarly effective in dispelling a lot of the myths surrounding a well known historical event that had been buried in legend and misconception. I'm definitely going to pick up more works by her when I get the chance.
