NAH, Liz was jealous, vain, and crafty and wanted Mary's head from day 1. Evil cannot survive in the light.

MQOS insisted frequently and passionately that she wanted to meet QE in person; however, QE tiptoed around the issue and did everything to avoid a meeting, told lies and made false promises. The Scottish Queen was well known for her charm and making people fall in love with her; the English Queen almost certainly knew this and was probably afraid of the idea of being face to face with her cousin because she didn’t want to like her. I think she preferred to keep their relationship strictly ink and paper because she knew it would be harder to like someone but also forced to be her enemy.

@@leslieblanco3536 I wouldn't say that but let's take a look at Elizabeth, her father didn't want her and her mother died on his command, her sister jailed her and she lost all of her step-mothers, she was all alone in the world and soon enough her cousin is trying to take her throne. But that's just my opinion i don't like either queens, I'm more a fan of the house of York

@@xxztarszebraxx4894 ^ no excuse. Elizabeth was cunning, crafty, and she made calculated moves. She was queen of the world and she took down a fellow queen and even killed Many of her supporters after promising her aid. Liz was vain, a liar, a usurper, a bastaard, and a literal courtesan queen (not a virgin, she had many lovers its even documented). NOPE

@@leslieblanco3536 like I said I don't care for her or mary in just stating facts they were both not completely innocent, mary sent someone to kill her husband and Queen Elizabeth killed mary, and Elizabeth had lovers, yes but she remained a virgin till death that's what I believe or so but I don't have time to debate over dead people lol

Thank you David! The visuals are so gorgeous, I definitely recommend you watch it

madxthing aw thanks bby girl, means a lot coming from you x

You're too kind, thank you

her son didn't sign her death, lizardeath did. He actually wrote to Liz to spare his mom and compared her killing an anointed queen to her father killing her Mother. Liz returned his letter in anger. Fuck her.

But she gained something too her blood runs through every royal family member today

@Hel V true but Stuart blood still runs thought the royal family today

@Hel V Queen Elizabeth II is from Margaret Tudor (Mary Queen of Scots grandmother), who was also the daughter of Elizabeth of York and Henry 7th. The royals in power currently are descended from the Plantagent line as well. So yeah Mary Queen of Scots blood runs in the veins of Elizabeth/William/Current BIRTH royals of England.

She forged a future for her son with her death Her last words: “my end is my beginning”

Does it help knowing that the creators of the movie are well aware of how them meeting isn't what's been known to be true but they wanted to create a "what if" scenario. Like what if they had met?

I agree, I hate historical inaccuracy however sometimes it really helps explain the storyline. Elizabeth and Mary may not have ever actually met but this scene portrays the emotion of the situation more than any replaying of historical events ever could.

Yeah

It was so hard watching this because they look so different and spoke so different. Personally I think saorise did it better as it was more realistic but then again this is a Hollywood movie with more money and more opportunities .

Reign is so unrealistic it's hard to think of them as the same

Same

For me she is far away from Mary. I cant see any Mary queen of Scots, not in appearence or essence (for what history tell us about her).

Yes

this is a movie not a dry documentary

Mary Queen of Scots

thank u

Oh were english soldiers and noblemen not rapers 😂 😂

Mary>Elizabeth

the Church of England started over the king wanting a divorce. I’m sure papists are much more true to Christianity than any Anglican back then.

Mary never stood a chance against Elisabeth.

bloody bessy
