One of the funniest moments of Anna Bolena is Henry VIII complaining that women love him only for the throne. Yes Henry; this is because your personality sucks.

Went on Youtube looking for Vivi tu te ne scongiuro etc. It is like Don Carlo cage in here. At least two productions cut the scene entirely as far as I could tell; several others are just not gay enough; shockingly, none look like the beautiful production in my head. Not to mention the jumpscare n*tr*bk* in search results.
