We saw Marie Antoinette today and in one scene there was a stringed instrumental that after a few notes I realized was "Hong Kong Garden." After about twenty seconds of the orchestral string instrumental they launch into the actual S&TB "Hong Kong Garden" which made the scene even more fantastic. I just checked the soundtrack and "Hong Kong Garden" is on it WITH the string intro.

Sun, October 22, 2006 - 9:59 PMI actually just got back from seeing it- great suprise!
It's getting a lot of mixed reviews, but I thought it was phenomenal. I was already a Sophia Coppola fan but now I'm borderline obsessed. -

Mon, October 23, 2006 - 10:10 AMIt was really light on plot and acting chops, but for a two-hour movie it went by quickly because it was so beautiful to look at and the use of soundtrack was pretty genius. I loved the use of "Ceremony" and "Kings of the Wild Frontier" and "I Want Candy" as well as "Hong Kong Garden". Now where's my Louis frock coat.... -

Love the psychadelic remake of "I want candy"
Another great soundtrack-Velvet Goldmine. Listened to that for months before seeing the movie.
May be a pattern developing here. -

Re: Hong Kong Garden in Marie Antoinette
Thu, January 10, 2008 - 3:00 PMI loved this movie especially, as everyone has said, because of the soundtrack. Visually and aurally the whole movie was like candy. I also saw it in the theater, alone, and just getting over the flu so my judgement was a bit off - perhaps if I was 100% the acting might have gotten on my nerves but all in all I loved it. I had also just watched a 2 hour documentary on PBS of Marie Antoinette so I know what happened to her after the movie ends, pretty hoprrific what they did to her and her family and friends - that's a whole other movie, for Tim Burton perhaps!!??
