"Thank" You Very Much

中秋節一起來高歌這首曲子，保證神清氣爽：可以合理地使用髒話！

我常在Fruit開車時撥放Lily Allen的專輯，最喜歡她這首歌“Fxxk You“。所選的YouTube視頻已經配上中文字幕，英文原文如下：

Can you see it ?

請大陸地區的網友特別注意：Orange's Review現在有了新的網域名：http://www.orange-review.com/，大陸地區的網友可以試試用這個方式直接瀏覽，至於原本不受封網影響的網友，原來的聯結 http://orange-review.blogspot.com/ 仍然有效。

我不敢保證一定能暢行無阻，但是根據對面回饋的結果，目前似乎能直接看到九成左右的內容．請大家將看到的情況，出現那些問題，留言給我，或是email：orange169369@gmail.com ．方便的話，可以將畫面擷圖一起寄給我．

謝謝大家的幫忙，提供我許多寶貴的意見。其實我的本意是要解決因為封網，不能直接瀏覽的問題（這不是待客之道啊），我自作主張想了一些奇怪的解決方式，什麼搬家，分站之類的。聽大家講搬站的大工程，真是手腳無力，想乾脆攤倒在地上算了．還好IV幫我釐清問題，分析不同的解決方案（我感動到很想掉眼淚－－科技怎麼如此難弄）。最後以我粗淺的程度，先不搬家，選擇反代理的方式（意思好像是以前你們個別用代理翻牆過來，換成由我翻牆過去）．

這兩天台灣有颱風，外面風強雨大，我正在家弄得焦頭爛額．但根據IV的指導，我完成了三件大事：

１）買了獨立的網域名稱，取代原來blogspot.com結構的URL　（Blogger好方便，在自家設定的頁面就可以直接用google checkout向合作廠商購買網域名稱，不必先另外向廠商購買）

２）再到http://www.you8g.com/ 完成登記 （感覺名額有限，好像額滿就不能處理反代理）

３）最困難的一步，就是回到賣網域名稱的網站管理介面，改設CNAME (我完全不知道那是什麼）

哇，不曉得這樣可以維持多久？希望能幫助大部份有需要的讀者．

Beyond the drama of Anne Lister：Part 8

Behind The Door

Anne Lister與巴夫人在房裡的時間越來越久，要說她們的行為沒被別人發覺異樣，我是打死不相信。Anne已經不再滿足於牽牽小手，親親小臉的層級，她要求更直接的肌膚之親。但倆人對於雙方的關係有不同的期望。巴夫人要求正式名份，雖然她不見得能清楚描述那到底是什麼樣的同性婚姻。畢竟觀念太先進了。Anne其實只想要一個情婦，而且是短暫的激情。可憐的巴夫人頻頻招架不住。不過話說回來，她並非不愛這個味。

1824/11/11：I locked the door as usual, then lifted her down and place her on my knee. By & by she said, 's the door fast?' I, forgetting, got up to see, then took her again on my knee & there she sat till four & three quarters, when Mlld de Sans sent to ask if I could receive. [I] told the maid I was sorry, I could not, I had got so bad a headache. The fact was I was heated & in a state not fit to see anyone. 她關上門，將巴夫人拉到膝上．巴夫人擔心門沒關緊，她還起身檢查一次．倆人這樣親密挨著大半個下午．連珊小姐差人問訪，她都推說頭痛不能見客．實際上她正在熱頭上，怎能見人？

I had kissed & pressed Mrs Barlow on my knee till I had had a complete fit of passion. My knees & thighs shook, my breathing & everything told her what was the matter. She said she did me no good. I said it was a little headache & I should go to sleep.　她身軀抽動，呼吸急促，巴夫人當然了解人事，卻半開玩笑，這樣有害健康．Anne順勢說是頭痛，睡一覺就好了．

I then leaned on her bosom &, pretending to sleep, kept pottering about & rubbing the surface of her queer. Then made several gentle efforts to put my hand up her petticoats which, however, she prevented. But she so crossed her legs & leaned against me that I put my hand over & grubbled her on the outside of her petticoats till she was evidently a little excited, & it was from this that Mlld de Sans' maid roused us.她靠在巴夫人胸口裝睡，但手不安份地伸向禁地．巴夫人併攏雙腿努力阻擋，她只好在襯裙外徘徊．巴夫人被勾起幾分興奮，此時正是珊小姐差人在門外問訪．

*研究指出此處的queer，推論是Anne誤植，本意應該是指quim，即女性私處。

Mrs Barlow had once whispered, holding her head on my shoulder, a word or two which, I think, were, 'Do you love me?' But I took no notice, still pretending to be asleep. She afterwards said once or twice, 'It is good to pretend to be asleep,' & the once, while I was grubbling pretty strongly, 'You know you pinch me.' From this she never attempted to escape. 巴夫人倚在她的肩頭，低語問道「最可怕的」問題：「你是否愛我？」她繼續裝睡不回答，努力進攻．巴夫人一會兒抱怨她裝睡，一會兒嬌斥：妳在捏我啊．

Before, when rubbing her in front, she had every now & then held my hand but always let me have it back again. After Mlld de Sans' maid roused us, she [drew] her chair close to the bed. I sat on the bed & partly knelt on one knee so as to have her quite close & she began to reproach herself, saying she was a poor, weak creature & what should I think of her.巴夫人天人交戰，幾次拉走她的手，最後又讓她放回來．珊小姐的僕人離去後，巴夫人把椅子拉近床邊．她則坐在床上單腳微曲，靠近巴夫人．巴夫人開始自責自己怯於面對誘惑．

I protested love & respect. Said it was all my fault & I would be miserable if she waw too severe to herself. Can you not love me on little bit for all the great deal I love you? 她雖然承認錯在自己，但不忘抱怨巴夫人怎能為了保全清譽，而陷她於痛苦之中．為何巴夫人不施予小愛回報她的大愛？

巴夫人面對下午激烈攻防，精力盡失．晚上照例和她相對，但面容憔悴，而且顯露愧色．

她提到晚餐時向別人讚美巴夫人的外貌，對方回予完全相反意見：

[On my] saying to Mme Galvani that she was pretty, 'No, not at all, said she, 'beaucoup plus laide que moi' ['uglier than me'], & that she look eight & thirty. Her skin & complexion were bad. I thought of all this when kissing her & thought it would not do for always. 她說巴夫人很漂亮，賈夫人卻批評「比我還醜」，說巴夫人看來像38歲，膚質很差．她親吻著巴夫人就想起這段話．這是感嘆好花不常在嗎？

巴夫人自己也感受到年齡的障礙．

11/12：She said she wondered how I could like an old woman as she was. I said if she really thought this, I ony hoped it was an argument in favour of what I had just said about my regard. 巴夫人很疑惑為什麼她會喜歡上像她這樣年紀的女人？

In stooping over her, the waist of my new gown hung off a little. She put her hand down on the left side, almost touchin the nipple of the breast, evidently wishing to feel it. She felt the stuffing but made no remark. I let her do it, observing I should hope to do the same. She did not much notice this but with a half no. She said it looked as if ready for anyone. I said for no one but herself, but she might do anything.她起身作勢制止巴夫人胡思亂想，剛好衣服腰際被扯緊，胸部線條顯露．巴夫人垂手幾乎碰觸她的粉暈．巴夫人感觸到她的挺起，沒有顯示任何表情．她也想對巴夫人回手，對方不置可否．巴夫人說她似乎蓄勢待發，她奉承只等巴夫人一人．

She begins to stand closer to me. I might easily press queer to queer. Our liking each other is now mutually understood and acknowledged. I asked her this morning how much she thought I liked her. She said as much as contented her & that was not a little. She would not refuse sleping with me if we could manage it well....巴夫人越靠越近，她順勢貼攏，倆人至此心意已明．她開始提出同床的要求.....

次日，Anne放下純潔無知的偽裝，開始講起追尋自我的心路歷程．

11/13：[I] said I had thought much, studied anatomy, etc. Could not find it out. Could not understand myself. It was all the effect of the mind. Noexterior formation accounted for it. Alluded to their begin an internal correspondence or likenes of some of the male or female organs of generation. Alluded to the stones not slipping thro' the ring till after birth, etc. She took all this very well, I said ladies could often hear from a man what they could not from a woman & she could from me what she could not from Mrs Mackenzie. She allowed this, saying it depended on how she loved them.　她思考了很久，還研究過解剖，根本找不到答案，不曉得自已為何和別人不一樣．她歸因於心理因素．可能性別在形成時，沒有區分出來．或許出生時，天命沒有配對好，就好像birth stone沒有對到正確的birth ring．常聽有些男仕提過，他們無法從女人身上得到滿足．她進一步說，巴夫人可以從她得到的滿足，卻不一定能從麥小姐得到．巴小姐認為這要依據她有多愛那一個人．

Got on the subject of Saffic regard. [I] said there was artifice in it. It was very different from mine & would be no pleasure to me. I liked to have those i loved near me as possible, etc. Asked if she understood. She said no. [I] told her I knew by her eyes she did & she did not deny it, therefore I know she understands all about the use of a----. Alluded to self-pollution, how much it was practised. Thought my connection with the ladies more excusable than this.　她接著提到女性之愛(不知她對於saffic的定義為何?），認為過於「人工化」（暗指假陽具），不符她的喜好．她喜歡儘量和對方親近．她問巴夫人是否了解她所指為何．巴夫人否認，但是她從對方眼神看出，巴夫人完全曉得假陽具的使用．

Happening to say I often told my uncle & aunt how I longed to have someone with me, she wondered what they would think of the person. I said my aunt knew nothing about it, nor would my uncle think anything. Then, expressing my wish to have her, she anwered, 'But we have had not priest but love. Do you not know the quotation?' I did not yet I said yes. 她常對姑丈和姑媽表示要找個女伴，兩位老人家並不反對，但對女女一事完全不懂．她便向巴夫人提議，巴夫人卻反應：「我們的結合，只有愛情而沒有神父的見證．妳聽過這句俗諺？」她根本沒聽過，卻硬是點頭．（＊Not priest but love，後來便成為Anne其中一本日記集的書名）

She told me before dinner I had given her a warm look the first morning she had come to call on me & she had remembered it ever since & always liked me.　原來巴夫人對她一見鍾情．她到達巴黎次日早餐，對巴夫人投以溫暖的眼神，從此喜歡上她．　

11/14：[I] became rather excited. Felt her breasts & queer a little. Tried to put my hand up her petticoat but she prevented. Touched her flesh just above the knee twice. I kissed her warmly & held her strongly. She said what a state I was putting myself into. She got up to go away & went to the door. I followed. 她繼續貼身進取的攻勢，巴夫人繼續阻止她的手在襯裙裡亂竄．最後巴夫人脫身退至門邊．她趕緊尾隨．

這段可以證明，巴夫人同並非不愛這個味。

Finding she lingered a moment, pressed her closely & again tried to put my hand up her petticoats. Finding that she would not let me do this but still that she was a little excited, I became regularly so myself. I felt her grow warm & she let me grubble & press her tightly with my left hand whilst I held her against the door with the other, all the while putting my tongue into her mouth & kissing her so passionately as to excite her not a little, I am sure.　其實巴夫人在門邊另闢戰場．兩人站著妳來我往，情緒越來越高昂，乾脆法式熱吻起來．

When it was over she put her handkerchief to her eyes &, shedding a few tears, said, 'You are used to these things, I am not.'　終於冷卻下來，巴夫人懊惱輕拭清淚，怪罪她之前裝清純：「妳根本就是箇中好手，但我不是」（怎麼把錯全推到對方身上）

I still therefore pressed her to let me in tomorrow before she was up, when Mrs Page [Mrs Barlow's servant] was gone with Miss Barlow to school. She would not promise. Asked me what I would do. I said teach her to love me better.....On leaving me, her face looked hot, her hair out of curl & herself languid, exactly as if after a connection had taken place....她仍在說服同床，提議巴夫人的僕人送小孩上學時，讓她溜進房裡．巴夫人一口回拒，又好奇她想做什麼？她說要教導她更好的技巧....巴夫人要離去時，她臉頰發燙，頭髮散亂，全身酸軟，好似真的經歷一場性事....

＊我猜想Anne腦子裡想的是這樣的畫面：

11/15：I contrived to ask if I had no hope of making her dearer to me before I went. She said, 'No, never, till we are married.' 'Oh,' said I, 'can nothing persuade you to anticipate?' 'No,' said she, 'I hope not. You would then leave me very unhappy.' 她不斷要求在她離開巴黎之前能更進一步．巴夫人堅持一定要在結婚之後．

I told her how she had changed me. I used to think I could not choose a woman who had had any experience & at first I could not bear to hear her name Colonel Barlow. Now I rather liked both these things.　她吐露一件心事．她以前認為不可能愛上曾有異性經驗的女人，更不敢想像她還掛著夫家的姓氏．現在她對這兩件事亳不在意．（Anne從這段感情獲得很大的自信，卻沒學會如個珍惜對方）

Anne的最大罩門在於她不知如何穿著體面。

11/17：She said the people stopt to stare at me. She thought it was my gown, it was so trumbled & shabby.　巴夫人說街上行人會駐足注視著她，因為她的衣著實在寒酸．

拜倫的作品一直是Anne追求女友的暗號。

11/18： I foolishly told her I meant to give her Lord Byron's works, She mentioned Galignani's edition, which I knew not of, & I must give it.　她開玩笑要送巴夫人一本拜倫的作品，巴夫人指名要Galignani的版本．她沒聽過，硬是點頭要送.

後來，她們真的同床了﹣﹣不過是同床午睡。

11/22：At twelve, got into bed with my flannel waistcoat, chemise, drawers, nigh-things, dressing-gown, stockings & boots on. At first, Mrs Barlow, who never left me till five, sat by my bedside. I then persuaded her to et in. I got my left leg & thigh quite between hers. Held her close. I think we both slept for a considerable while. 不知為何她正中午全身穿載齊全睡在床上。大概穿這麼多，沒有其他意圖的樣子，巴夫人跟著一起睡了午覺。

[I] said again & again I wished I could marry her. I would gladly do it at that moment, then I could have my own way. 她一而再表示要與巴夫人成婚．但一轉頭，她心知肚明不過是場面話，只為能為所欲為．

11/23：Poor soul! I begin to feel that I have really attached her & that I cannot find it in my heart to deceive her more.　她一時良心發現，覺得自己越來越喜歡巴夫人，不忍心欺騙對方．

Poor soul! How she is deceived. Why have I done this? I thought at first to succeed on my own terms, letting her know I was engaged. Then I could not acknowledge that Marianna loved me. I durst not say I was engaged to anyone else lest she should hereafter see me living with Marianna. For Marianna's sake I could not let her suspect anything & thus have I gone, from little to more, into this deceiving.　她承認讓巴夫人知道自己有婚約約是權益之計，但後來不敢明說那就是Marianna．將來巴夫人看到她和Marianna一起生活不就拆穿了？為了Marianna，她的謊言越扯越大．

Queer Women in classical art ：14

Sappho and Erinna in a Garden at Mytilene (1864)

Simeon Solomon (1840-1905)歸為「拉斐爾前派」的代表畫家，作品多以希臘神話為內容，人物常顯現陰陽同體的氣質。事實上，他是一位同志，但很不幸地在1873年因為在公共廁所意圖與別的男子發生性行為，遭警察逮捕，被判刑入獄，反來改以罰鍰。這件事情讓他原本如日中天的事業，一下子跌入谷底。他的畫作主題未有直接的男同志主題，他倒是為了拉子姊妹以傳說中的女同傳奇人物莎孚創造出本幅作品。

Crime d'amour

法國導演Alain Corneau的遺作《Crime d'amour》英文片名《Love Crime》，二位女主角Kristin Scott Thomas 與 Ludivine Sagnier 因為職場上的權力鬥爭，產生愛恨交織的張力．電影界一直很鍾情《All About Eve 彗星美人》類型的題材，為什麼女人之間的感情被描寫得這麼複雜？



Ludivine Sagnier（呂迪芬沙尼耶）是法國新生代女星，你可能看過或聽過她曾引進台灣的作品，如果還沒注意到，這回可以試著記起來。

Whip it, roller derby

為什麼《Whip It 飆速青春》的明星宣傳照需要她們親吻來表現這般女性情誼？電影中並沒有女女情節，唯一出現的性愛場面仍然是異性戀當家。但我從三個地方感覺到整件事情隱藏的密碼：Roller derby(女子競速滑輪)的歷史、《飆速青春》的暗示影像，以及演員本身的傳聞(但我是倒著來看)。

美國在30年代經濟大蕭條時期發明這種衝撞運動，雖然充滿娛樂表演的意味，但是娛樂效果完全建立在結結實實的皮肉相撞．我感覺很像摔角：招式或許可以事先套好，但是流血和瘀青卻一點都假不了。這類激烈衝撞運動總讓我想起古羅馬競技場，或是西班牙的鬥牛場，只不過換了角色和你死我活的規則．

Julie's Fingersmith

Lang朗姊前幾天告訴我這幅插圖，出現在法國部落格Djou's Blog，取材自Fingersmith原著結尾：窗外天色昏暗，落雨不斷，倆人在火爐前，席地而坐，就著燭光，Maud用她令人魂牽夢引的聲音開始喃喃念起....當然畫者跳過了念稿，直接到了下一階段。（ 注意：火爐上方是鏡子倒映窗外落雨)

我寫了email向畫者Julie M.自我介紹，並請她同意轉刊這幅圖。她很爽快地答應，但是對我寫這部改編影片有點意見：

I saw you wrote about the movie Fingersmith. Actresses are great but the adaptation...is so dreadful!

如果當初拍片找她當場景設計，說不定會更忠於原著？雖然我把圖借來放，但我建議你過去看看。因為原文下方有配樂。

另外，我建議可以看看她的其他作品，有些是描述拉子伴侶的生活。雖然語文不通，但是別有歐式風格。（右圖是順手牽過來的）

Beyond the drama of Anne Lister：Supplement B

法國大革命的恐同迫害插曲

以前的教課書提到法國大革命的成因，不外乎是路易十六昏庸無能，皇后揮霍，國家財政不佳，強行徵稅引起民怨，最後導致暴動....我最近在看一本薄薄的小書《大革命之前的法國》，用較寬廣的史觀角度分析法國大革命的遠因。簡而言之，法國大革命的背景因素是老式國家機器的管理效能和方式趕不上經濟、社會、文化的演變。國王雖然難辭其咎，卻不是原因的總合。但王室畢竟是最明顯的箭靶，皇后(左圖)Marie Antoinette瑪莉安東尼（1755﹣1793）更成為最好攻擊的標的物。

皇后來自奧地利，為了兩國和平而決定的政治婚姻。然而法國人就是不喜歡奧地利，始終無法接納皇后。在革命初期，反對皇室人士有計劃地印製八卦傳單散播皇后的醜聞，除了文字還附上插圖。內容從她揮霍浪費，一直講到亂搞男女關係。尤以淫亂題材最具殺傷力，於是出現皇后男女通吃的流言。

皇后有兩位閨中密友，一位是Duchesse de Polignac 波利內公爵夫人，本名：Yolande Martine Gabrielle de Polastron(1749–1793)．Polignac是法國貴族的姓氏，家族位於法國南部Polastron．

公爵夫人非常漂亮（見右圖），皇后在1775年初次見到她，驚為天人．其實路易十六也有意為年輕的皇后找些同伴，排遣她的孤獨．於是皇室執意要公爵夫人一家搬到凡爾賽宮附近，還為她們打理龐大的安置費用，幫她丈夫安排官位．

一般人認為公爵夫人是壞朋友，誘導皇后吃喝玩樂，因此八卦傳單最愛影射兩人有不可告人之事（如下面插圖，圖片來源，BTW，這是個有關瑪莉安東尼的法文討論版，可以挖到很多寶）．但是越讀一些文章，越覺得這是當時有心人士抹黃的技倆．通常我樂於接受名人的女女傳聞，但就瑪莉安東尼的流言，我認為動機可議，手法不足可取。如果你想看一些辯駁，可以參考：Madame de Polignac and the Politics of Calumny

另一位被影射的人物是Princesse de Lamballe 朗巴爾王妃（左圖），本名：Maria Teresa Luisa of Savoy(1749﹣1792)。與公爵夫人差不多同時成為皇后的伴友。史料上記載朗巴爾王妃有才學，個性較為拘謹，但深受皇后喜愛，使她成為八卦傳單攻擊的人物。

王妃的遭遇令人不忍。她原有機會安全留在英國，卻選擇回到法國共赴國難。1792年人民審判，她拒絕放棄對皇室效忠，被丟入暴民之中任意處置。據說她被性侵後開腸剝肚，頭顱被切下。暴民舉著她的身首想拿給囚室中的皇后看。皇后過於痛心而暈厥。在一些歷史插畫，常可以找到以她受辱情況為題的圖畫（見下圖）。

如果你對瑪莉安東尼皇后想進一步了解，以下英文網站值得一讀：

Marie Gossip Guide：歷史趣聞，請用左邊label尋找

Tea at Trianon：豐富的法國史，可用Tag尋找

瑪莉皇后的女女傳聞後來越發不可收拾，原本只是政敵一旁捕風捉影，最後竟出現一位女子隔海在英國出版回憶錄，大言不慚自己是皇后的同性情人．這就是知名醜聞"Affair of the Diamond Necklace 鑽石項鍊事件"

話說瑪莉皇后的公公：路易十五，為了討好情婦Madame du Barry，向珠寶商Boehmer訂製豪華鑽石項鍊．不幸，作品尚未完成，路易十五就去世了．珠寶商希望剛繼任王位的路易十六夫婦能買下鑽石項鍊，以解決先前投資製作項鍊造成的財務危機．但是這一大串鑽石項鍊實在過於昂貴，就算皇室也不敢下手．

Boehmer等了好幾次機會勸購．第二次時機是皇后生下第一胎，皇后不是不了解國家情勢，馬上拒絕："At that price we have more need of a ship of the line than a necklace."（這時候是買戰艦而不是買項鍊的節骨眼）珠寶商不死心，皇后生下男嬰，再度上前遊說．皇后仍然拒絕，而且勸他把項鍊拆解零售．但是散鑽的價值比不上整條項鍊，Boehmer的危機便被Comtesse de la Motte 莫特瓦洛女伯爵所利用．

女伯爵本名：Jeanne de Valois, Jeanne de Saint-Rémy-de Luz(1756–1791)，號稱有皇室血統，她父親據說是法王亨利二世的私生子．因為沒有名份，Jeanne小時候生活貧困，一心想要取得貴族地位．她應付男人的身段高超，藉由一個一個入幕之賓，慢慢往上層階級發展．

1783年，她遇上Louis René Édouard de Rohan (1734–1803)，人稱Cardinal de Rohan羅昂樞機主教．雖然名為主教，卻沒什麼道德情操．Jeanne成為他的情婦，發現主教急欲討好皇后．其實主教曾經散播過皇后的壞話，當然對他沒有好感．

Jeanne靠著先生在禁衛軍工作之便，以及與宮內秘書Retaux de Villette的床上關係，開始羅織騙局．她告訴主教能代為牽線至皇后，兩人可以秘密通信．主教為什麼相信Jeanne如此神通廣大？據說她當時便聲稱自己是皇后的同性戀人．那個時代只有同志被別人指控，還沒人敢自行出櫃，更何況外面的八卦傳單謠言滿天飛，可憐的主教信以為真，根本未警覺皇后的來信全是偽造．這一幫人甚至找來一個女演員喬裝成皇后，安排與主教月下夜會，暗示主教偷偷出錢買下鑽石項鍊送給皇室，皇后再用其他方式回報．

於是主教找來珠寶商，將項鍊交由Jeanne轉呈皇后．沒多久，項鍊被犯罪集團拆解四處零售．他們的如意算盤是就算主教發現，他只能啞巴吃黃蓮，不敢說出．可是珠寶商沒拿到錢，直接告狀到宮庭，犯罪集團連同主教一干人等全部被囚禁．

路易十六夫婦嚥不下這口悶氣，堅持公開審判．很多歷史證明，司法公義與社會觀感之間存有差異，公關操作確實會影響大眾輿論．當時的路易十六不明白現代政治包裝的技巧，雖然司法還給皇室清白，但大部份的民眾卻相信皇后的貞操定有污點，否則無風不起浪．

Jeanne採用玉石俱焚的策略，緊咬是皇后的同性戀人．瑪莉安東尼陌名其妙的同志身份變成法國大革命人人喊殺的罪名．拿破崙後來便說道：

"The Queen's death must be dated from the Diamond Necklace Trial" (皇后的死期從審判鑽石項鍊事件開始倒數．)

Jeanne入獄前判處鞭刑，還被烙印．但是反皇黨人士幫助她逃出監禁，變裝成男人，坐船逃到英國．她沒有銷聲匿跡，反而出版回憶錄Mémoires justificatifs de la comtesse de Valois de La Motte，出一本還不夠，1789年接著出了第二本．這二本回憶錄為法國大革命搧風點火，皇后與Jeanne的同性戀情更是有理說不清．

Amazon可以買到法文版 Volume 1, Volume 2，另外在Google Book亦可看得到．

這個女人樹大招風．1791年她從住家三樓墬落，傷重不治．死因成疑，變成懸案．皇后比她多撐了兩年，最後死在斷頭台上．

Affair of the Diamond Necklace 於2001年被好萊塢改編成同名電影，中譯片名為《亂世美女》由Hilary Swank 希拉蕊史旺主演，你可以比較電影的角度．

瑪莉安東尼是否有女女傾向？深宮向來寂寞，難免有幾次實驗，但要講「傾向」，似乎她的女女光譜不及於此．

在《凡爾賽拜金女》雖然不觸及女女傳聞，她和二位女伴確實常在一起，不論在Petit Trianon（小翠安儂宮/小提亞儂宮）裝扮成牧羊女，還是跑到化裝舞會尋歡作樂．我們在電影中沒有特別感覺，但有網友精心剪輯，原來她們就是一群惡女幫啊！
