Mantel dismissing the vast majority (besides….Bernard) of Tudor historians as “Anne supporters” is, uuuuuh….
why would you make a movie about kate upton and alexandra daddario fighting over a man that looks like a stale piece of bread, when you could, instead, make a movie where they fall in love????
I mean much was said of her eyes, so I get the quote kind of (dually alluring and dark, but yeah suggesting especial ‘darkness’ in the sense of malevolence is…yawn, esp. since Gregory’s ‘interpretation’ of Anne) but like…maybe something not appropriate for her father to be saying??
They really just made him the Worst, this + “it’s as if he was imagining her…naked” like dude!! That’s your daughter!! Stop forever!! ‘
I guess they just wanted us to hate him as much as Charles Brandon did shshshsh, to the point where we’re rooting for him/connecting with him in s2 when he confronts him in the Tower and asks him if it was ‘all worth it’.
