Anastasia Nicholaievna / Flower Day movie

« on: February 02, 2011, 08:02:21 AM »

Hi everyone, I have recently come accross a video on Youtube of actual footage of the Romanovs, and in it there are scenes taken from what I think is Flower day, but I'm not sure what year. If anyone can help to identify it that would be great.

Here is this video, in case you haven't seen it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pG2Hec_8Vzc

The flower day scene occurs at around 2 minutes and 38 seconds in.

Thanks again!

Those aren't quotes by Tatiana.

Those were the words of another that she had copied down into a notebook that was found.

Oh. I'm sorry for the mistake, I'm a newbie.

That's true, too. I think he may have known what was happening while they were in captivity, but he wouldn't do something so random and sudden like that, from the little info that we do know about him.

Hmm...I guess here in the US it's kind of 50/50. I rarely see "Romanoff" written in books, but I see "Czar" very often.

Yes. I guess it was just big crowds of people that scared her.

Ahh, ok. It's such a shame---Ella and Alix were best friends!

Right...and Alix got those terrible red patches from her nerves, which Anastasia inherited.

I'm sorry, I think I'm searching wrong then, because nothing comes up when I do. Sorry again to make a fuss.

Nicholas II / Re: Nicholas II and Dowager Empress Marie

I don't think this really happened, at least, in this way...I remember that Minnie had been rather brutal in the way he talked to his son when they meet for the last time ...at the movie Nicholas and Alexandra. I think you are speaking about that movie and not about the real thing. She could have speak not so gentle words about Alix more than once, she even wrote letters treating this issue, but not in the crude way she did at "Nicholas and Alexandra".

However, I'm not able to remember that she had said nothing about Nicky's brothers. All she said is that Nicky's father would have hanged the chiefs of the riots. But nothing more. And remember: it's a MOVIE not the real history of the facts. Nobody knows for sure what mother and son talked about.

Olga Alexandrovna told later that her mother would blame Alicky for all bad things that were happening, but she spoke this way to her daughter, never to his son. And I don't know any entry of the Tsar's diary written in the terms you are referring to.

RealAnastasia.

Thank you setting me straight! No, I wasn't really talking about Nicholas and Alexandra, although I have seen that movie, I was more referring to a website that is now closed. But, as everyone here probably knows you can't really trust websites to get their facts right all of the time!
