#la revolution francaise

A little piece of music which I’d like to share with everyone who’s interested. It’s a piano music sheet of Henry Litolff’s «Ouverture to Maximilian Robespierre» which is basically one of my favorite compositions ever. It came to me by pure coincidence so I really proud to have it in my collection. The reprint is Russian and dates back to 1928. The first page is a bit damaged but the rest is almost perfectly fine.

Especially I like the La Marseillaise fragment here. Also it’s for four hands so I have literally no one to play it with lol.

If you never listened to this ouverture I highly recommend.

Bonus: a postcard with Maxime from the movie «Napoléon» 1927. The music sheet was released a year after the movie was made.

Przybyszewska's The Danton Case Official Drinking Game

Take a sip of a wine from Marseille* every time...

(*maybe water it down or substitute it with grape juice if you don't want to be like Danton in the play)

Someone starts humming La Marseillaise out of the blue

Danton gets called ugly (warning: maybe do it every other time, this happens quite a lot)

A character dramatically takes out their pocket watch

Robespierre's eye colour gets mentioned (yes, being called a "green-eyed monster" counts too)

A character either: a) talks about getting on their knees for someone, you know, metaphorically b) literally gets on their knees (looking at you, Eléonore)

Someone calls Camille a 'genius baby/toddler'

Lucile says or does something that proves she's smarter than 99 % of the characters

Robespierre gets called the Incorruptible

Saint-Just's being dte in the committee meetings (=down to execute)

You feel the strong urge to yell at Camille and call him a beautiful idiot (also approach with caution - this may be subjective but I personally felt like doing it in literally every scene he's in)

ALL RIGHT, I'll be writing my thesis on the Greek and Roman symbolism in the French Revolution. I've already some good sources but I'd love to have more! If you know any, recommend any, please let me know!! They can be in English, French or Polish!

is it horrible that I adore LRF Danton? Easily my fave from that film, hate the real guy.

(I love that I am a person to turn to for such confessions, anon!) Look. Look. LRF was made in such a way to portray Danton and Camille Desmoulins as the main heroes. It makes Danton super positive (I don't remember a single negative thing. Hmm... he is inappropriate with one of Duplays for a moment, but it's blink and you miss it. Maybe I forgot something, but he is presented as amazing in every way, and always correct.)

So it's not surprising that he has fans. I think the actor gave a good performance - despite his height, he embodied the energy and Danton's passion (in lack of a better word).

If it makes you feel better, my favourite from LRF the first time I watched at 13 was

Louis XVI! I am not even kidding. I liked the actor a lot and how he portrayed Louis. Of course, the (not so subtle?) pro-monarchy vibe of the film helped, but still. I really, really liked the guy, you have no idea. I don't know Louis enough to tell if the portrayal was accurate or not, but man, I loved that guy. Not enough to change my opinion on frev though lmao.
