I agree, that she was unjustly used as an scapegoat for the ills of a revolutionary France. But she was also extremely careless in her early years blowing thousands of livres in gambling games and her favorite courtiers.

Poor woman she realized too late that there was not turning back. Also her husband was pretty stupid not fleeing France while they still had the chance.

Does anyone know what is this song called?

[Rollstar41]

@lahuraka the song is called Jynweythek ylow from Aphex Twin

She is my favorite person from history because she is so misunderstood and hated, but she was really a kind and sensitive person; just like any one of us.

The peasants had a right to be angry and to rise up, but they shouldn't have blamed Marie Antoinette. She was only the Queen and didn't have much say in politics, but thte lies spread about her poisoned the suffering hearts of the masses. I guess every movement needs an enemy.

Rest in Peace Dear Queen :)

What a beautiful woman. I really look up to her for just following her heart and doing what she thought was right. She was her own person and believed in herself. She didn't deserve to die and was wrongfully accused of things that she didn't do.

Rest in Peace Marie <3

I really like the picture on 1:26 & 2:12 (the last picture)

Happy Birthday Marie Antoinette

[ForeverComplaining]

@rockinamber18 Well a lot of people in them days had grey hair I'm sure?

But even so, she was supposed to have a beautiful face and the fact that her hair would of been done up well, wouldn't really bother people. Having grey hair in those days was normal.

Also I think her attractiveness was mainly based on the fact that she was the queen and a wealthy trend setter, no so much her beauty.

[ForeverComplaining]

@Moriah38 A lot of these 'great' monarchs came in to power around her age, or younger.

I don't think she was too young, I just think politics weren't her interest. She was in to fashion and art, she wasn't in to running a country. Her husband just made the wrong decisions and this clearly had damaging affects on Marie.

But if she hadn't been beheaded, we wouldn't be here today idolising her and finding her so interesting. She would just be a boring old crumb.

[ForeverComplaining]

I don't care what she did in power, I think she is fabulous and will always be my Idol.

It's obvious a luxurious life style can't really have much of an impact on the economy. Politicians obviously got power hungry and jealous so decided to encourage a whole load of propaganda.

The fact that she stayed in versailes, during uproar proves her innocence and devotion to France.

[Moriah38]

@lahuraka I feel that she was so young when she become betrothed to Louis and later became queen that she needed a way to escape. Fashion was her attempt to get away from the world as well as to mask the hurt and insecurities. She spent so lavishly to fill a void and because she was younger she didn't realize what consequences she would have to face. I feel that a revolt in France would've took place sooner or later and Marie was lucky enough to live it up before her untimely beheading.

idk why people would find people with gray hair that attractive o.0

[italoluder]

she became an adult when it was too late.........sold as a child and sacrifed by her mother empress maria theresia. poor woman. she was totally naive and had no idea. and i also think she was not interested in finding out......and still...she was not a evil person...just totally naive. she paid the highest price.

[temajsamot]

she was an absolute silly girl (and not naive at all) ! beautiful, very greedy and with no limit. She thought it would go on that way for ever just like the whole nobility ! She liked living like a farmer (in the parc at Versailles she had a farm and animals..) while the people starving wanted to eat properly ! The French people could not stand her spending so much money in futilities meanwhile ! the "give the folk cake"... is totally wrong ! sure thing is she and the king had all the bad luck.

@martinlindsgaard I saw one in Washington DC, it was incredibly well hidden, and I almost cried when I saw it, I was so excited! It really is beautiful
