Graphic Abyss

He did that one too? Fucking hell. And this is old.

He plays the piano too?? Goddamn it. This is so good.

That is so Oscar Wilde, love it.

The seriousness of this scene is slightly undermined by the portraits of Henry's esteemed ancestors.

ACD is probably the only one who could save US politics at this point.

Love the subtle realism in the details.

Actually love this cover.

Took me a while to realize that Taylor also was in Minx, a show I absolutely adore. He played the himboest himbo who ever himboed so convincingly I didn't even recognize him. Although, he played a man deeply in love and also showcased his glorious ass so it wasn't that different, I guess. XDD

This is such a wild coincidence, that Nicolas is playing George Villers. Twice a Prince and now a Duke. Not bad. I was wondering for years why nobody made a show about King James and his boy yet and there it is! There's always more gay history to be made.

There's more on that in the book too:

One thing I like about this movie is the way it took themes from the book and reinterpreted them. The original scene in the V&A museum focuses on a certain statue.

However, they filmed this scene in a different room of the museum. And I dunno maybe they weren't allow to use that room. More likely it seems they just didn't have the time to explain why that statue was gay so instead they just filmed in front of the gayest statue in existence - Theseus and the Minotaur. Iconic.
