Would love a version of this that is edited to be longer. It's a big book and she must've said lots of other things too lol

I can’t believe The Virgin Suicides was her first film. It had such a big impact on me, she truly captured this whimsy throughout with an undertone of sadness and intense nostalgia. I’ll never forget it. And the soundtrack? Perfection.

I'll never forget the first time I saw Marie Antoinette in the movie theatre. It inspired me so much. The colour palette, makeup, costumes, architecture just really made my imagination run wild. I was just a teenager. I was a huge art nerd and into painting, drawing and makeup. Now I'm an adult and I'm lucky enough to have a creative career. I will still watch that movie when I feel uninspired and it still inspires me to dream.

It’s so sad the public and the critics at the time didn’t understand what a cult classic Marie Antoinette would become over the years. It kind of change how period films are told.

A photographer with a great eye, an artist, a fashion literary, a mature woman of the globe, unpretentious, sophisticated, stylish, educated, considered in her choices … & a writer / director with an Oscar under her wing who walks with her father’s foot print with ease & grace - Francis. A pretty stunning LIFE if you ask me. What an accomplishment. Go Sofia Coppola. 🇮🇹🎬🎥🖋💪🏼The stories she could tell at a dinner table. WOW !
-
Marie Antoinette is one of my favorites. I especially love that scene where they watch the sunrise after the party -- it captures that youthful energy that you feel directly after a big event.

sofia coppola is one of the most prolific directors i’ve ever seen. her movies are so beautiful and portray the female perspective so well, and she was never afraid of doing such rather than pandering to the male dominated industry ❤ marie antoinette and the virgin suicides really changed my life as a teen girl

My favourite filmmaker. She is very authentic and has a real sense of aesthetic. ❤ I have the book and it is even better than what I imagined.

I love how expressive she is with her hands - I do that a lot.

She's so lovely! I very recently watched her 2003 interview with Charlie Rose and she hasn't changed a bit <3 Can't wait to see Priscilla :)

The Beguiled being shot in Jennifer Coolidge’s house is wild.

She’s the only person who’s nepotism is welcomed.
