Anne of Cleve is speaking modern High german in this movie! I can understand it perfectly although she has a heavy accent XD. But Kleve is north of the benrath line! Which means she should speak low german/low saxon which is much closer to anglosaxon/english since it did not had the second Germanic consonant shift. So her accent maybe was not that heavy after all. And it should made it easier for her to learn english.
@SpunkStalker101 You said the word; "claimed". They can't cast the actress on what Henry was suppose to have claimed. Portraits and accounts from that time, show her to be quite attractive. She was simply not Henry's type
Infact Anne of Cleeves was probably more repulsed by Henry than vice versa. Henry was almost 50, whilst Anne was only 35
She wasn't exactly his type. He liked his women slim and sylph-like, and Anne was a little more full in the bosom and hip. Because they became such good friends after the annulment, it is more likely that in the end, they just did not get along as husband and wife.
Joss Stone is a great actress but I think they miscast Anne. The king claimed her to be ugly and that he did not care for her but Joss is lovely and gorgeous :(
I feel so sorry for Anne of Cleves. Everybody thinks that she was ugly, but the only person who thought that was Henry. Everybody else agreed that she was an attractive woman, though not Henry's 'type'. When he married Catherine Howard, and Anne was retitled as the King's 'sister', she actually came back to court for Christmas when Catherine was queen (Awkward!) Apparetly, everybody there agreed that Anne behaved much more like a queen than the silly little Catherine.
Poor Anne... Must have been hard. Henry was horrible. He only thought of an heir. All the women were like his toys. If he diden't like them he killed them or divorced them and then he got a new wife. But I think Henry loved Anne but diden't want to admit it...
@misssoumsouma Anne was raised in a way where sex was never mentionned, so she does not really know how to do in bed and Henry had been quite dissappointed by her looks ( it is said that Holbein painted her more beautiful than she was) and by a reaction she had when he met her. In real life, he hugged her from behind to play and she called him ap ervert without knowing who he was.
@elvaelvirababe Because she casted to play in the tudors. She should have been Jane Seymour but with her concerts, it was not possible so they gave her Anne of Cleves
@misssoumsouma Nothing is wrong with Anne of Cleves. Henry is just an asshole. Some say that Anne met H before, but didn't know it was him. He was raunchy, perverted, and drunk. She disliked him, perhaps called him a few things, not to mention on their wedding day and night, she was nervous, and perhaps scared. Henry, slighted ego and not used to a woman not immediately fawning over him... he wasn't attracted to her. No need for the caps.
