I ought to watch the movie so I can put this in context. :) But lovely writing, nonetheless.

why thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it regardless. you should watch the movie! plus it has a great backstory -- hence the total crack that is this drabble.

How cruel! Poor Countess.

You get SO MANY POINTS for writing for this movie, though.

thank you! you appreciate the classical hollywood ones the most, perhaps ;). yes, poor Ebba -- the levels of repression resonating between fiction and reality just slay me.

I haven't done the research you have, but now I'm going to.
