The grand, beyond over the top interior of The Palace of Versailles contributes greatly to the decadent feel of the film!!
'When the chateau was built, Versailles was a country village; today, however, it is a suburb or Paris, some 20 kilometres southwest of the French capital. The court of Versailles was the centre of political power in France from 1682, when Louis X1V moved from Paris, until the royal family was forced to return to the capital in October 1789 after the beginning of the French Revolution. Versailles is therefore famous not only as a building, but as a symbol of the system of absolute monarchy of the Ancien Regime'

I was lucky enough to have visited the palace when I was about 6. It was unreal, we got a tour through the rooms but I was too young to appreciate it! Amazing
