    2:38 - Anna Anderson never claimed to be Anastasia, she was in a mental hospital for several year after she was found attempting to kill herself.
    She had total amnesia (later revealed to be caused by watching her friends and love die in an explosion at her job) and after a few years, a Russian woman saw her and proclaimed her as Anastasia.
    Even surviving members of house Romanov were split on the subject. The film came out after the bodies of Anastasia and her brother were found to be missing but before they were found post 2000.

    The stories of Duchess Eleanor of Aquitaine are facinating. She was mother to King Richard the Lionheart, married King Louis of France before moving over to King Henry of England, many of her children became the heads of many of the royal houses of Europe and if it wasn't for Eleanor we wouldn't have a Lancelot in the King Arthur tales. She read the original tales and decided they needed more spice so she had her court poet write in Lancelot and the lovers triangle was born.

      She was also a ruler in her own right, being the heiress to the kingdom of Aquitaine, the biggest dukedom. Her court was very focussed on the arts, she really encouraged the art of the troubadours. She was adamant to rule her lands herself and not let them be ruled by her husband, thus loosing their own identity. She went with her first husband, the king of France, on crusade to the holy land. Then she got her marriage annulled after 15 years, and married Henry Platangenet right away. He, I believe, was some 10 years younger than she. She bore him 8 children, led her oldest sons on a rebellion against their own father, got locked away by Henry for 15 years in a convent, and lastly survived her husband. She was brilliant!!!

      Yes, Richard was the third son, and John the fifth (fourth legitimate). The first died in a campaign against their father, Henry II. Before all the family feuding, Eleanor had married Henry (then just a Duke) just six weeks after annulling her marriage to the King Louis VII of France, a huge insult to him. At the time, England and Aquitaine controlled more of France than France did. Oh, and no British nobility could speak the peasant Anglo-Saxon-Dane language of the country, since they were all Norman French. The first British King who spoke a modern version of English was Henry IV around 1400, about 350 years after William the Bastard took advantage of Harold Godwinson's victorious but depleted army (after defeating the Danes way up north) at the Battle of Hastings (way down south). By the way, Harold II was the last English king to sit on the British throne, nearly 1000 years ago. The rest have been French-Normans, Scots, a Dutch husband (William) and Germans (House of Hanover, renamed Windsor).

    Nice video. Speaking of "The emperor's new groove", Among the characters eliminated in the transition from the musical to the slapstick comedy are two women: the emperor's betrothed, Nina, who was supposed to be voiced by Hill House's haunted mom, Carla Gugino , and Mata, a llama shepherdess who - we suppose - would have ended up becoming empress after the redemption of Kuzco. Mata was supposed to be a sarcastic and outspoken character who could help the emperor lama understand his mistakes and become a better person. The name was then kept for the maid of the inn where the protagonists meet / clash with the couple formed by Yzma and Kronk. And speaking of Kronk: his character was included in the cast after the plot twist; initially Yzma would have been flanked by an animated talisman, which, tired of the emperor's methods, would have plotted behind him with the witch to get him out of the way. Hucua, this is its name, has been supplanted by this year's model, Kronk, but still makes an appearance on the dinner table, in the form of a harmless candlestick.

      The creators of Disney's "Lilo and Stitch" wanted to animate an authentic Hawaiian hula accurately to be included in their film. They went a hula school in Hawaii to see what goes into creating one. They talked to the headmaster about the different steps for the hands and feet that women would use in a real hula as a tutorial. After they recorded the hula they wanted on videotape, the director told all the animators to draw every single hand, feet, body, and head gesture accurately.
      As a result, most Hawaiians agree that the hula used in that film was real. Even the song, "He Mele No Lilo," was sung in Hawaiian having a male lead and a Hawaiian children's choir. When the movie was released, Disney also made a version using the Hawaiian language as a tribute to the people of those beautiful islands and their culture. The people of Hawaii were pleased with the movie. Ever since that film has been released, one can find many short videos of people recreating the hula in "Lilo and Stitch."
      Finally, I cannot believe that Disney wants to do a live action remake using a lot of CGI. It's not been a good move on Disney's part, and they should focus on creating new content instead of rehashing the same movies with these endless and pointless remakes.

  • @melissacovert4820

    Okay soooo…
    French history scholar here. The Notre Dame we see in the film is exceedingly accurate to Notre Dame in the 20th century - not as much the Notre Dame of the story’s setting (January 1482).
    The spire Quasimodo summits at the climax of “Out There” is actually based on the one that stood on the cathedral in 1995, when the film was animated - which was the 19th century Viollet le Duc spire. Although interesting in its own right (and incidentally purchased with donations solicited by interest in Victor Hugo’s Notre Dame de Paris book, on which Hunchback of Notre Dame was based) it differs on several counts from the 13th century spire that would have crowned the church when (if) Quasimodo actually resided there. The most notable example is probably the statues of the 12 apostles, which le Duc’s design added.
    Also, fwiw, the statues Esmeralda encounters in the church would have probably still had their original paint on them at that point. Much like Hellenistic statues, medieval stone statues were often very colorful when they were new!

    to add to the fiction parts of "Anastasia"
    1. the party held at 1916 to celebrate "300 years of good family rule" (the latter part of the quote + "spark of unhappiness" already a fiction) was actually a combo of the *1913 Romanov Tercentary* and the infamous *1903 Winter Palace Costume Ball* (hence why everyone except Nicholas were in 17th century attire, while Dagmar's outfit was a recreation of a photo currently in the UK's Royal Collection)
    2. Vlad's line of Anastasia as "the heir to the Russian throne" is untrue, as the Pauline Laws state that *the imperial succession is strictly male line* (a reactionary rule in the aftermath of Paul's mother Catherine the Great's reign)
    3. the Dowager Empress's fond references to Alexandra, as *Dagmar never liked Alix of Hesse as her daughter-in-law*
    4. as the daughter of a Tsar, Anastasia was *entitled to wear cloth of silver* as the main material of imperial court gown. Also, Anastasia is not entitled to wear a "tiara Russe" (tiara in the kokshnik manner) due to her unmarried status (hence she should be *wearing her hair in a plait* ); normally *kokoshniks were mainly made of stiff material, the jewels were merely embedded in, and there should be a floor-length veil*

      to your second point: IF Anastasia was truly alive at that time, then she would technically be the last known member of royal blood, so until she married and had a male heir, then yes.

      1.

      2. your argument is weak:
      2.a. Catherine was a *Romanov by marriage* ; she was born a German princess by the name of *Sophie Friederike Auguste von Anhalt-Zerbst-Dornburg*
      2.b. *Catherine only became Empress Regnant via coup d'état* , not helped by the fact that her husband Peter III was unpopular with all sectors of Russian society, specially the military (due to his open Prussian sympathies and a huge Frederick fanboy)

    "Anastasia" was not put out by Disney. It was created by Don Bluth who also did "Thumbelina" and was distributed by 20th Century Fox. Regardless, they should have not taken such creative license with a true life personage. My girls loved this movie which came out in 1998, but the remains of the family, except for the two youngest members had been confirmed by DNA in 1997. While Anastasia and her brother's bodies were not found and positively identified until 2007, there was enough information to know she had not survived the massacre.

    While I love Mulan, the only really accurate part is the fact it's based on a ballad. I got interested in Chinese history randomly, and now I see so many problems, it makes me sad. The shrine to the ancestors should be in the house, cutting hair was a sign of cutting relationships specifically that between parents and children, the outfits were wrong for the time period I'm pretty sure, the whole matchmaker scene, and a few other things. I still love Mulan, but it makes me sad the animaters didn't dig that deep into ancient Chinese culture.

    Some of these I did not actually know. I knew the detail to Notre Dame was accurate and quite unique. But I think some of us are missing the point of this list. It's not top 10 Disney princesses. Or top 10 Disney movies. It's historical accuracies in Disney movies. So can we all agree we have different stances on Anastasia. Though to be fair she was a real life princess so the moniker Disney princess seems more respectful consider the movie owned by Disney and she is a princess. Therefore by all technicalities she is a Disney character who is a princess but that's a lot to say so Disney princess would be easier and more precise. Or you could say Disney owned princess if you wanted to be more practical but still respectful.

    But no film biography, live action or animated, is completely historically accurate. "Anastasia," which has been dramatized several times on stage and screen over the decades (it was supposed to have been Natalie Wood's big comeback before she died), if ripe for fairy tale-izing because involves bogus royalty.
