<![CDATA[Yall read/watched the The Rose of Versailles?]]>ive kinda heard of it and assumed it was rlly gay but i watched the movie on netflix and it was so beautiful, the art direction is stunning, it was so passionate and felt more womanist then necessarily queer (tho it definitely has queer undertones and only ruined the immersion for me)
(my only complaint was making it a musical, i love musicals but the songs were all just generic pop and unwatchable so i skipped them. the original story wasnt meant to be a musical so it was kinda a random choice. theres only like 6 songs tho so its not that bad)

the story is about a women named oscar who was raised to fit the roles of a son and is assigned to protect the french princess, the story is a historical fiction with lots of romantic elements. It takes place during the french revolution

the movie was so good but was only a summary of the 2000 page manga series and now im DETERMINED to find the manga, i saw volume one months ago but the store doesnt have it anymore:(

anyways its a great story and im excited to read the manga which has much more content and depth and id def recommend it to shoujo gir
ls or fans of history!

warning this story is a emotional rollercoaster TvT

i think the two women definitely love eachother but bc of the time period they never dare consider it romantic, but the princess does say that if Oscar was a man shed be in love with her

they could be straight but i just interpret it as them not rlly getting the concept of marrying another women so they never they never fully understand/embrace their feelings
(also its historical fiction and the princess was a real women so making her explicitly gay could be seen as disrespectful because theres nothing that supports that she was)

i dont mind it not being girl love bc i love theyre relationships with the other characters and i think their cannon ships are more meaningful
