Milady’s Judgement aka 20 Years After

There are a few films that have always stayed with me.

The 3 Musketeers and The 4 Musketeers are 2 of them. The old films. Also the original Dumas books.

Lucy Percy, Countess Carlisle was supposedly Dumas’ model for Milady de Winter. In the films she is branded on the left shoulder with the fleur de lys. #TRAITOR

BTW – Rochefort was a cousin of Marie de Rohan.

Marie wrote in a letter, talking about Richelieu (and it’s on a very old website of mine)

Weave a Garland of my Vows

‘I think I am destined to be the object of the folly of madmen’ – Marie de Rohan 1600-1679

I’ve been branded as a traitor too. I don’t know why I keep being beheaded.

It makes me very sad :o(
