Despite mixed reaction to Kevin Shields’s treatment of Bow Wow Wow, most of you agree that Sofia Coppola’s latest soundtrack lineup is up to snuff. All reports of the film say that, despite being shut out of that Top 40 list, Sofia continues to score her scenes with the perfectly-placed hipster tune. Coppola’s rendering of Antoinette as a Paris Hilton-type party girl may have been a little too simplified for the French audiences at Cannes, but securing Kirsten Dunst, Jason Schwartzman, and an awesome film score is sure to get the kids in the seats. Who goes to the movies to learn, anyway? But for the history students out there, here’s a little known fact: Marie Antoinette played an Epiphone!

And of course, we’re giving it away. There will be ONE grand prize, but we’ll have THREE runners-up, each receiving a copy of the soundtrack (on CD), a poster, nail polish, and a quill (ink well not included). Winners of the Marie Antoinette Guitar Giveaway will be chosen at random on Monday 10/23 at 6PM EST. To enter, tell us the first song you’ll learn to play on Marie’s guit; if you already play, tell us your favorite song to rip to. Be honest, but know that if it’s a lame song, we’ll all laugh and point. Good luck!
Marie Antoinette is in theaters 10/20.
UPDATE: This guitar’s now been autographed by the MA stars. Click for details.
