I find the reviews saying that this series is historically inaccurate and full of falsehoods very tedious.
It is a series not a documentary.
No one was expecting it to be historically precise -
none of us were there to make it so.
You can add that this would not have happened, that would not have happened, blah blah blah.
Look I love History, especially European history and Royal family's. But viewers need to get over themselves.
Regardless of how loosely this is based on Marie Antoinette's journey into life in France, it is magically captivating and kept me enchanted. The acting is good, the costumes stunning and overall an enjoyable series.
There are many documentaries on Marie Antoinette, if you want to be that concerned about historical facts, go watch one of them.
The idea that you could start watching this series and imagine that everything was accurate in it is beyond a joke.
Go into this series with no preconceptions and enjoy it for what it is.
You never know, it may spark an interest in viewers to learn more about Marie Antoinette and do fact checking themselves.
It is a perfectly lovely series that kept me entertained. Very recommended, if you can override your need for historical accuracy and just get a life.
