“Henry was eighteen when we met and I was the queen of France. He came down from the north to Paris with a mind like Aristotle’s and a form like mortal sin. We shattered the commandments on the spot.”
God, the perfect movie. I knew within the first ten minutes that this movie would be a favorite. I see why Katharine Hepburn won her third Oscar for this. The final scene of Henry seeing Elenor off, “I hope we never die! You think there’s any chance of it?”, and the two of them laughing with each other was just so great. Peter O’toole should’ve won his second Oscar for this. The way he had Henry staggering throughout the castle looking a mess and then there’s Katharine Hepburn wearing her best dresses and crown😭
