She would prefer to sleep with any man but her husband.

well, I love Daniel Auteil but to be honest his hairstyle gives me nausea along his hook nose...

I won't compare him with Vincent perez because would be a great injustice...hehehe

[dannyheatley14]

can anyone tell me the name of the song/choral in the background, please ?

[BartLuka]

@dannyheatley14 its soundtruck made by Goran Bregovic

[Lutchenka4]

Até hoje não sabe exatamente quem foi o que foi que desencadeou a "Noite de São Bartolomeu"! A Raínha-mãe, Catarina de Médice promoveu essa união na esperança de unificar o reino, mas foi pior e a história atribuiu a ela essa noite!

At the time represented, only people of substance, whether royalty of merely the wealthy, would require a legally sanctioned marriage, with proper clergy and a contract. the poor just lived in sin (common law wedlock) until some wandering friar came along and there was no contract since there was no real capital. Legal marriage has ALWAYS been about power and the disposal of property.

[anaclet]

@steerpike66 That goes without saying, it's the natural law. Why spend time, paper and ink if the two souls joining their bodies and exchanging their fluids have nothing on this earth that is of any value?

[ricardoamaro83]

Maravilhosa ! Diva

[ivanbaloh]

does anybody have any info about the music - especialy at the begining?

[p473r]

@ivanbaloh Goran Bregovic - La Reine Margot - Le Matin, Le Mariage

[anaclet]

@ivanbaloh Yes, it's called Alleluja, by Luluy, the composer of Louis XII of France

[BartLuka]

@anaclet not Luluy but Jean baptiste Lully and he wasnt composer of Louis XII but Louis XIV, differen era of french history

[anaclet]

@BartLuka Exactly, that's what I intended to say. A minor slip when typing the post. Your precision is much appreciated and regally rewarded.

[Whiteorchidee]

I read they were supposed to be both 19 - yes, years old!!!

[lahuraka]

But royalty marrying at that age was common.

Marie Antoinette was 14 when she was married of to the future Louis XVI (who was 15 at the time)

[Walbrook48]

Behold -- the true meaning and purpose of marriage!
