  • Paris, 1791. Marie Antoinette is held captive in the Tuileries. She begins a correspondence with Axel de Fersen, a young count she met nearly twenty years earlier at a ball. Their exchanges are cordial, political...and censored. Were they lovers? Were they plotting a royal rescue? The rumors are endless, but no one can say for sure. Until now. This fascinating documentary follows the team of chemists, cryptographers and historians who through amazing new scientific techniques and hours of careful study have finally managed to fully decipher the letters between the dethroned queen and the dashing count. What they discover is the love story we already know ends in doom, but that is still full of hope, passion and breathtaking romance.

    I have always had a soft spot in my heart for Marie-Antoinette. The minute her carriage crossed over the border to France, she was stripped of all her clothing and her little dog was taken away from her. The French people hated her from that moment on.
    I hope she is in Heaven united with her Swedish Nobleman. Peace and Light to their Spirits. ❤️🇫🇷❤️

      The French people initially loved her, but as time went on she became the scapegoat for all their troubles. She was far from perfect but she did a lot of good to some, but she was Austrian and therefore she was an enemy.

    I didn’t see 100% of Marie Antoinette’s betrayal here.. Yes, there are love letters, but again Fersen confesses his love, and although she reciprocates his love, she writes "My dear delicate friend" (but was it still treason?). As a result, it turns out that neither the King had mistresses, nor the Queen had lovers. Eventually, this Royal couple was the most faithful couple to each other, besides, she did not abandon Louis 16 in 1789 when she could have left and saved herself, she remained with the king until the very end.
    Added.
    Yes, at 3:38 minutes she confesses her love, but was it hot love? That's the question. That is, I mean did she actually cheat on the King or are these just declarations of love only in correspondence.
    I would like to note that Marie-Аntoinette confessed her “love” even to her best friends, so now she’s a lesbian or what ?

      @@helenefrench4275 Thank you so much, Helene. I love history and I love to read. I especially like learning about interesting women in history. Zweig's book gives a lot of quotes from letters Marie and her mother, Maria Theresa, wrote to each other. What's chilling is that Maria Theresa sensed Marie Antoinette's demise. Mother's intuition. Chilling. Marie and Louis XVI should have never been subjected to the "national razor".

      Si , les Français l’ont beaucoup aimée, mais ses dépenses, ses interventions en faveur de ses favoris, l’ont rendue impopulaire , par la suite. Elle a été victime de campagnes mensongères, et par la suite , elle est devenue beaucoup plus raisonnable, puis véritablement admirable et d’une grande noblesse. Beaucoup de Français les ont pleuré, eux et leurs enfants. Les révolutions sont toujours injustes, sanglantes, en Russie , ce fut pareil.en Angleterre, seul Charles Ier a été exécuté, parce que sa reine et certains de ses enfants avaient pu s’enfuir .
