Reuploading this because my last version sank with my old account. Exactly what it says on the tin, Hozier's "Eat Your Young" with various monologues from The Lion in Winter (1968) spliced in between.

Breaking News: Another horrible man is horrible to literally everybody and is then shocked when people are not nice to him. England once again totally fucked. But I hear the monarchy is good for tourism, so

"Doomed by the narrative? Too easy! No... it is the narrative that is doomed by US! (And also, we are so so horny for each other.)"

So it turns out The Lion in Winter (1968) slaps. Katherine Hepburn somehow manages to capture the feeling of watching someone tear out a person's jugular with smiling teeth. She and Peter O'Toole in this movie are basically performing the cinematic equivalent of the song "No Children" by The Mountain Goats and it is wild.

Tagging @thirdsisfics because I associate the term "doomed by the narrative" with the positive feelings I get from talking to you about the trope!

#it is unclear to me at what point in history people think the English monarchy stopped solely churning out deeply broken entitled people #brits have SUCH a weird reverence for their monarchy but if you're existing outside of that propaganda they all look insane for it #must be like Americans and our military. where it only looks good from the inside and once you figure out how bad it is you're like #oh no. almost everyone I know believes it is socially unacceptable to criticize this institution. oh my god WE are the evil horde. #Peter O'Toole #Katherine Hepburn #Anthony Hopkins #the lion in winter #The Lion in Winter 1968 #old hollywood #alt-text #image description #see Jack talk #King Henry II #King Richard I #King John #Magna Carta #that feeling when your favorite son goes on to permanently limit the powers of the monarchy by doing such a bad job #I think what works best about this movie is even though it's all kings and queens and monarchy and history they all feel horrifyingly human #Henry is not that different from every other patriarch who has worked to ruin everyone in his life only to grow old and find he is #surrounded by people and so so alone #americans and brits are like 'yes our country definitely did horrible things in the past. even in very recent past. but that's changed now' #'not sure exactly when or what the turning point was but it DEFINITELY happened for SURE.' #the movie starts with Henry saying he intentionally raised his sons to be like this and then the rest of the movie is him like wait what #i didn't think leopards would eat MY face. says man who spent his life raising face-eating leopards. #and yet they're all still so deeply deeply sad and sympathetic. which is some good fucking acting. #shitposting #king lear #I recognize that my tags are me bouncing back and forth between movie commentary and slagging off the American Military #and i am not sorry. thank you for coming the speech I am giving on the sidewalk in front of a ted talk

It doesn't feel like Christmas until I watch a bunch of royal assholes scheme and plot against each other.

One Dress a Day Challenge

January: Red Redux

The Lion in Winter / Katharine Hepburn as Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine

This is a simple costume, but the rich red looks good onscreen--more muted, with the lighting, than in behind-the-scenes shots. It's probably not exquisitely historically accurate, and certainly the hair and makeup are contemporary in style. But then, the script doesn't really pretend to be anything but a 20th-century family drama with medieval trappings either. And they do get points for showing Eleanor in a gorget! That's definitely not something you see every day.

Such an interesting movie. Like a coming home for holidays movie but with a royal family. Had some funny light hearted moments and a crazy good cast. Great dialogue.
