This movie is really going to suck. Muchly.

http://www.liberation.fr/page.php?Article=384772

Apparently the People are reduced to the stereotypical "angry mob" so if the average viewer does not like barbie-pink!Antoinette, they'll have little choice in sympathies, because she and the rest of the Court will be the only human characters.

It's a lot easier for most people to sympathize with one person, even if she is the most annoying bimbo they have ever seen, than a "mob" with a good reason to be angry!

That said, from what I can tell, Liberation is treating this with irony, and seems to be pointing out that the subject matter is somewhat....irrelevant: big surprise there!
...at any rate, it's not a positive review, and I like the publication overall, so...

Because it's bad enough that we're seperated by faulty internet without us being ARRESTED. Besides, if we truly wish to follow Maxime's teachings, it HAS to be legal.

Poor Brissot. He suffered enough without having to look like a Collot hybrid.

What about the "as illegal as liberty itself" quote? Huh? What about THAT?

Brissot had some....issues, though.

What about it?

You mean being a Girondin, for example?

Yes, but, aside from that.

Erm...I admit to not knowing very much about Brissot.

They gave him the key to the Bastille, because he had been imprisoned there, and he wore it on a ribbon around his neck. *facepalm*

According to Camille, anyway, he was really snotty about it...

Of course, Camille wasn't so fond of him...

I figured...man, wouldn't it be great to find something UNBIASED?
