Marie Antoinette Hairstyles

Question: how can I do marie antoinette’s hairstyle? Can anyone tell me how to do it myself?

I have an idea of how to do the front part but how do i go abou all my hair in the back? I have long hair with some curls so my hair usually stays when I arrange it in a particular way, should I start the hairstyle with a ponytail like when you make a tight bun or in a different way? Tips, suggestions and tutorials are welcome, thanks!:)

Answer: wow there are so many different ways that she does her hair. providing a picture of the one you like would help us give you a better answer.

Marie Antoinette Movie Summary

Question: Anybody watched the movie “Marie Antoinette”?

I was watching it, seriously it got boring so I stopped, and plus I was sleepy. I’m curious why did she get beheaded? And I was reading an article, it said she had to give birth in front of everyone, embarrassingly. Why? Did she cheat on Louis (her husband) and made love to another man?

Can anybody give me a quick summary?
I was watching it online on a website, and it takes extremley slow to load.

Answer: Hey!

In 1789, the French Revolution was beginning to emerge as the state went bankrupt. In October, Antoinette and the rest of the royal family were moved from Versailles to Paris where they were kept under guard like prisoners.

On October 16, 1793 at 10:00 a.m., Queen Marie Antoinette was beheaded by guillotine for being an enemy of the revolution.

Her husband Louis XVI was beheaded on 21 January 1793.

However, in the film "Marie Antoinette" the beheading is not shown. The movie ends with Antoinette and Louis XVI and her two children leaving their home.

Antoinette gave a public birth because it was an established custom to watch royalty give birth. The idea was that the divine right to rule really did pass through the blood line and people had a right to be sure this was a legitimate royal child, not a substitute for a child who might have been still born.

Marie Antoinette cheated on her husband and was known for having orgies. It is also believed that she had lesbian affairs as well.

Why Did The French Revolution Occur

Question: Throughout world history, what other conflicts have occurred that are similar to the French Revolution of1848?

In addition, what parallels can be drawn between both the other conflicts and the French Revolution AND today’s current economic and political climate in the United States?

Answer: Perhaps the English civil war which ended in 1649. Both it and the French Revolution ended in regicide.

I'm maybe speaking out of turn here, but I doubt very much if any modern U.S. President could accummulate so much social injustice for so long - he'd be impeached long before.
