HEADPHONES/HIGHER THE VOLUME

-----

"Kingston kept Anne in the dark for a while longer and tried to comfort her by explaining that her execution would not be painful and that the blow was “so subtle”. To this, Anne replied in her rather black humour, “I heard say the executioner was very good, and I have a little neck” and then she put her hands around her throat and laughed.

Anne’s black humour in those dark hours showed through as she joked with her ladies that the people would be able to give her the nickname “la Royne Anne Sans Tete” or Queen Anne Lackhead, and then she laughed. Those hours of waiting and not knowing what was going on must have been pure hell for Anne as she had prepared herself to die that day. She was finally put out of her misery when noon passed and Kingston informed her that her execution had been postponed until the next day, the 19th. According to Chapuys, “when the command came to put off the execution till today [19th], she appeared very sorry, praying the Captain of the Tower that for the honor of God he would beg the King that, since she was in good state and disposed for death, she might be dispatched immediately”6 and Lanceleot de Carles has her adding that it was “not that she desired death, but she had thought herself prepared to die, and feared that the delay might weaken her resolve”, but there was nothing that Kingston could do to ease Anne’s suffering. All Anne could do was return to prayer and wait."

NOTES

This video is for the first round of the The Journey Contest by xfoxyamanda11. For the first round we had to vid a "snippet of a journey" be it a couple, character or even a show's journey through an episode or a season ...which I really struggled with because I don't really like limiting myself clip wise. I began way too many videos for this round that fell apart. I had a Damon/Katherine/Stefan set to Roxanne that focused around them in 1864. I had a Lion King video to Stand Up and Rains of Castamere. I struggled with trying to edit chronologically, limiting myself to clips and trying to fit the theme but something at last came together with this one.

I only used clips from Season 2 of The Tudors and of which, I mainly used clips from episode 10. I tried to focus on Anne's final days in the tower and what her emotional state was and show her resolving herself to her fate. I also tried to show how she got to that place aka "her downfall" with the deterioration of her relationship with Henry and her inability to provide him with a son and then ultimately, her death.

Hopefully I've done a good enough job of fitting the theme and showing a "snippet" of Anne Boleyn's life and that I was successfully able to show Anne Boleyn's journey not only in her final days but how after all the pain she'd been through she saw death as an end to her suffering.
