Marie Antoinette, wife of Louis XVI and one of more famous queens of history, from the movie with Kirsten Dust as the queen of France.


About the "Let them eat brioches!" question:

According with LadyNorrington [link] : "Archduchess Marie-Antoinette and Infanta Marie-Therese were born about a century apart but both women would come to the same destiny as Queen of France.
Both the Infanta and the Archduchess are claimed to have spoken the infamous words: "Let them eat cake."

Marie-Therese was simple, sometimes dull, woman compared to her flashy husband Louis XIV. However unfaithful as he was, Marie was always in love with him and he always cared for her. When Marie died, Louis said "This is the first trouble she has caused me."

Marie-Antoinette was very flashy compared to her simple, sometimes dull, husband Louis XVI. Marie cared a great deal for her husband despite his fascination with locks and boats as opposed to her and in return, Louis wrote tragically about his caring wife while imprisoned."

She said " Let them eat cake" because she wanted to ignore the problem since the people in France are hungry.

There are many doubts about it. There are even doubts that she really did say that, because the sentence is also attributed to the wife of Louis XIV...
