#1440p is CRAZY#i love crying. anyways#i have thoughts...as im rewatching this.....#i like the delivery but you have to wonder about the line of god is punishing us....for what we've done#like mmm we need to unravel that more#and im sad forever bcus possibly they did but there were so many deleted scenes and we can't watch them#bcus unspooling that is like...well what does that mean tho lol#executions related to the oath of supremacy ? bcus henry never expresses regret for those#it is often a thread in fiction#it's in the tudors. that he orders more's execution but has mixed emotions about it and decides that anne is to blame#but when you look at the contemporary evidence that's really a stretch#yk. attending a play celebrating it. walking on foot MILES to see it.#he doesn't even seem to have anything you could circumstantially attribute to regret. no moves of generosity towards more's kin#like he does with the men he orders the deaths of in 1536...#like henry norris' heir hviii 'restored in blood'. which i always thought was. hmmm#obviously he eventually came to believe their marriage was cursed#so that could be the 'what we've done'#but like...idk...the vibe i got from the line was almost more like he was suggesting...for abandoning catherine?#and their treatment of her memory esp since in this series anne wears yellow and he doesn't#which is so...tiresome to me lol#ik ppl want it to be true#but there's nothing (contemporary; again) to suggest he regretted his treatment of catherine. ever#he never reversed his belief that he was never married to coa .#despite eventually coming to believe the same of his with AB
