La Reine Margot/Queen Margot

09:12:00

If you seek another reason for why people are killing themselves mercilessly for centuries, don't look far. Think about your beliefs. Maybe you believe that after death you will be saved for following the rules of your religion, that your soul will be elevated and you will be awarded for all good deeds you committed. Well, that might be true. Eternal bliss seems to be a nice life motivation. The problem is that the same attitude is shared by a follower of a different religion. Different rules, different awards, and in their eyes, you might be a heretic. It's always about the perspective. Things haven't change that much over the years. Do you still think that you are right and they are wrong? Can you love despite religious differences? Can your enemy turn into your friend? What a ruthless massacre can stem from the game of power? And how many deaths can follow one small difference in religious beliefs? In divided France there was a royal family, breaking all social norms, there were marriages for truce, love affairs despite divisions and executions without reason. Based on Alexandre Dumas' novel, bloody and hypnotizing Queen Margot.

On the nature of pictures

*Every Google image belongs to someone and this someone should be noted. However, if pictures are scenes from the film they most probably belong to owners of the film/producers. I use saved screens of the Google compilation of pictures, thus the pictures of pictures, which I take, cut and edit myself (as a derivative use). They are used for reviewing purposes (fair use), not for diminishing the films' profits by stealing what rightly belongs to them. Copyright is tricky, let's get used to it.
