Happy 26th anniversary to one of my favorite Val movies the saint 1997 👼
Val was brilliant, funny and scorching hot as Simon Templar (and shivering like a leaf).
The saint cast at the movie premiere
"I see my angel for the first time. Know my purpose, feel my birth, Hear, at first faintly, then distinctly the sweet strains of our union. Our love heats up the cold universe And gives my tired, desperate hope A reason and season to be revealed . We, purified by our kisses, are eternally healed."
(Simon's poetry is actually Val's own poetry he wrote for the movie)
On May 13, 1717, at around seven-thirty in the morning at the Hofburg in Vienna, a daughter was born to Emperor Charles VI and his wife Elisabeth Christine. On the evening of the same day, the infant was baptized by the name of Maria Theresa Walburga Amalia Christine....
...
Maria was a Christian name given to all Habsburg daughters. Maria was the patron of the dynasty and its lands, magna mater Austriae, the head of the hierarchy of saints and most powerful of all heavenly intercessors. Theresa referred to one of the central figures in the post-Tridentine communion of saints, the Spanish mystic Teresa of Ávila; canonized in 1622, patron of the Spanish monarchy, and founder of the order of Barefoot Carmelites. Walburga was an eighth-century saint, the object of great popular devotion in Austria and the patron of childbirth. The baby was named Amalia after one of her two godmothers, Amalia Wilhelmina, widow to Joseph I. Lastly, the name Christine was taken from her mother, Elisabeth Christine of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel.

Saint-Just is almost as eager as I am to see Paris again. I promised him dinner from your hand. I'm glad you don't hold it against him; he is an excellent man; I love and esteem him more and more by every passing day. The Republic has no more ardent, more intelligent defender. The most perfect agreement, the most constant harmony reigned among us. What makes him even dearer to me is that he often talks to me about you and consoles me as much as he can. He sets a high value, it seems to me, on our friendship, and he says things to me from time to time with a very good heart.
