A Royal Affair -- (2012)

Thursday 22 August 2013

Just watched the movie with the only sister of mine, three days ago. Oh, just need one night tight sleep to change everything back to its normal condition. Maybe I forget to mention that she threw a cup, till broke in pieces, in the quarrelling night. Lol. It's the main reason why we repeated the same mistake again and again. Too easy to make it up. We shouted, threw things, rude words, even sometimes there were some physical contacts but, just needed a trivial thing to calm it down.

My Sister enlisted A Royal Affair into her notebook's must-see movies list. It's a non-English movie; using Danish maybe. Watching a historical drama movie always drain our heart and mind. The only thing I hate from it  is the exaggerated sexual content. And the rests are really good. Of course the emotions built by the characters, breathtaking sceneries and the beautiful Renaissance gowns. I watched Anna and The King and I saw what make the gown that billow was bamboo arrangement inside the skirt.



It's about Caroline Mathilde who married to Denmark's insane king, Christian VII of Denmark. Christian's deviant behaviors; childish yet womanizing, he regularly visited the whorehouse even took the woman to his room and ignored his queen, gave Caroline a queen just for a status. And then Struensee came into their marriage life. He had been the King's physician and Christian listened to him the most. He loved Struensee like siblings. An affair was inevitable between Caroline and Struensee. Moreover they had the same missions about the rabbles; freed them from the slavery and so many unfair treatments by their masters. 

Stuensee took advantage from Christian's trust to him to remodel the cabinet and it's for the rabbles' sake, though. Mathilde gave a birth to a Crown Prince from Christian and a daughter from Stuensee.The insane King was too idiot to save his Queen and best friend. The third party who just thought their business took advantage from the King's stupidity and Caroline's and Stuensee's mistake. Christian had been a Doll King, Stuensee was beheaded and Caroline was exiled. 

Watching it till the end made my emotional flutter...
