It must have been terrible for Nicholas II, he never wanted to be Tsar, he just wanted to spend all his time with his family and be a happy man. No matter what mistakes he made as Tsar, he was still a human being just like the rest of the Russians and did not deserve the way in which his life ended, and nor did his wife and children.

The movie is just not the same without Alan.

I love how Ian McKellen just LOOKS at the guy who threw his gloves down, the guy's smile fades, and Ian just walks through them like, "I'm Tsar, bitches." But seriously, he just has this bearing that even makes angry insurgents pause for a bit and think, wow, as pissed as I am, this man has the integrity of a ruler. Love Ian <3

@Bboiblack to behave in a way that was contrary to the way of the people.. would you think yourself a bad person? He tried, and failed, but he tried and it was his ministers who were to blame.

@Bboiblack how did you come to that conclusion? Nicholas's Father surrounded him with ministers of right wing views.

@Bboiblack life is not so clear-cut, and history is always told through the eyes & prejudices of the "winners". remember, no matter the actions or inactions of great rulers, they are human; they feel pain and bleed just as you do. sane humans can feel empathy and realize that is not equivalent to condoning 'evil'; it is not a binary matter

[TheDeviantLord]

And Thus did fall the Imperial Russian Family, who had for more then 300 years ruled the largest landmass country in the world.

God Save the Tsar

Your video displays ridiculously difficult to read content; your introductory speech should expound earlier upon the reasons for your breakthrough news.

That said, it appears, too, that you, Stanford's Professor Knight et al may well have missed the mark entirely -- which, paradoxically, might, surprisingly, prove a boon for resurrection of eg. Anna Anderson's claim -- mainly ... CHIMERA; covering eg.Grand Duchess Elizabeth or Alexandra having more than two DNA profiles between em... et al: Get

this movie is actually making youtubers feel empathy for someone who in reality was a very bad man
