Anastasia Nicholaievna / Challenge: A Tribute to Anastasia

« on: July 19, 2005, 02:01:57 AM »

We all know how Anastasia has been immortalized in many books, albums, music, movies, documentaries, even cartoons. My challenge here is to gather all the pictures of those actresses, including cartoons characters (no matter how silly we think they are or how inaccurate the movie is) Whom with their interpretations have made, in their own way, keeping Anastasia’s spirit alive. Also a list of all the books that had been written reviving her memory and finally, all the songs and documentaries that remind us about her.

I know this is kinda silly but it’s just a little tribute to the memory of this fascinating historical character.
Just drop a line or a pic …
