Honestly, it is on par with the pornographic, slanderous pamphlets in the Queen's era.<br /><br />Besides the unnecessary nudity, did Queen Marie-Antoinette really have same-sex attractions with La Duchesse Gabrielle de Polignac? I don't remember that in <i>Trianon</i>… And did she really make her reader Sidonie Laborde be a decoy and dress like La Duchesse just to save La Duchesse's life?<br /><br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5g9EuXPtR0" rel="nofollow"><i>Louis XVI, the Man Who Didn't Want to Be King</i></a> is much more like <i>Trianon</i> because it actually gives the King a part with dialogue, shows Trianon more, shows Marie-Antoinette's children more, mentions more history than just the Storming of the Bastille and a passing reference to the defecting of priests, and includes scenes from the King's trial.<br /><br />Two thumbs down for <i>Farewell, My Queen</i>.Geremiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11812810552682098086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-40437093158628464212013-11-09T19:47:18.217-05:002013-11-09T19:47:18.217-05:00Yes, Alan, I have seen the film you mention and I ...Yes, Alan, I have seen the film you mention and I think they do a pretty accurate job portraying Louis XVI.elena maria vidalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17129629173535139807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-4829055826311482712013-11-09T19:45:58.330-05:002013-11-09T19:45:58.330-05:00Yes, Alan, Farewell my Queen the novel shares some...Yes, Alan, Farewell my Queen the novel shares some similarities with my novel Trianon.elena maria vidalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17129629173535139807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-65406867784181426542013-11-09T18:52:41.213-05:002013-11-09T18:52:41.213-05:00Have you seen Louis XVI, l'homme qui ne voulai...Have you seen <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5g9EuXPtR0" rel="nofollow"><i>Louis XVI, l'homme qui ne voulait pas être roi</i></a>?<br /><br />The French neo-Royalists seem to like that it portrays Louis XVI very differently from how a Republican would.Geremiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11812810552682098086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-50632085784346873202013-11-09T18:49:31.458-05:002013-11-09T18:49:31.458-05:00Is Farewell my Queen the most similar film to your...Is <i>Farewell my Queen</i> the most similar film to your book <i>Trianon</i>?Geremiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11812810552682098086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-71536873854223327452011-06-29T07:24:19.722-04:002011-06-29T07:24:19.722-04:00Thanks, NC.

You have some great material in your historical novels, especially in THE NIGHT'S DARK SHADE, which deals with a period and subject that hasn't been done to death, unlike the story of Marie Antoinette. Audiences are hankering for something they haven't heard of a million times before, and the Cathar period is bound to be fascinating to readers and viewers who've had enough of the 18th century.The North Coasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14292115710427172625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-85161903218950458702011-06-28T17:25:00.807-04:002011-06-28T17:25:00.807-04:00Yes, me, too.
