Finn & Uther watch two films about the destruction of the European aristocracy in the 18th-19th centuries: The Leopard (1963) is Luchino Visconti’s epic about a Sicillian prince coming to terms with his own irrelevance, and, Marie Antoinette (2006), Sofia Coppola’s post-punk and new-wave inflected look at the final years of the French monarchy.
We discuss our feelings on Sofia Coppola, whether The Leopard is more than some very pretty pictures, and Kirsten Dunst’s career. Uther gets inspired by Fast 9 and Finn just wants to talk about the music.
