Not sure just how sarcastic that last line was intended to be.  I actually found the movie to be extremely interesting, especially when you consider the surprising juxtaposition between historical accuracy (costumes, story, sets...all mentioned above) that you would expect from a period piece like this, and yet with the soundtrack, which was all in your face punk rock and hipster and fairly reeked of teenage rebellion such that the emotional response became immediately accessible in a way that most period pieces are too far removed to accomplish.

fwoo!

But that's just the soundtrack.  I felt that the same could be said for the character development of Marie.  She was not just likable, but accessible, whereas no one else (nor anything else for that matter...) in the movie was developed to have traits identifiable to a modern day audience.

So...that coupled with the Sofia Copula's yummy stylized shooting...I enjoyed the shit out of it.  no sarcasm.
