   That’s a genuinely haunting juxtaposition…I have a feeling at least somebody involved in That Hamilton Woman a few years later must have seen this! It certainly makes me wanna see it.

     She’s really really good in it – but everyone is.

   The scene where they take her son away is really hellish. Worse yet if you know the history of what happened to that poor boy after Marie went to the guillotine.

     Richard – yes, just a horrifying scene. That young actor is wonderful.

     Poor Dauphin. Poor everyone. What happened to him was terrible.
