Yes!! Jean Simmons as Desiree, Merle Oberon as Josephine, and Marlon Brando as Napoleon. A very sympathetic and surprisingly accurate portrayal (considering the free license that Hollywood has to "interpret" history) of history seen through the eyes of a woman. Women's stories are often relegated to the sidelines, and treated as footnotes in history. If you can get your hands on a copy of, "Desiree" then share it with everyone you know!!

When I first learnt English, my teacher read a story about a 14-year-old girl falling asleep in a city's hall and a male grown-up was very kind to her, taking her home safely. He turned out to be Napoleon's older brother. Probably my English was not good at that time, I assumed that she would marry him later. Only now have I realized that her life had many twists. In a way, she had a lucky life.

Desiree ? Charming, but no beauty I’m afraid (Jean Simmons brought her own good looks to Desiree’s character) . And Napoleon (not used to sentimental and shy virgins) soon got bored of her (he was to marry Josephine instead : much older and being a widow by then, she was more experienced and was gifted with interpersonal skills, which was not the case with a very young Desiree Clary). Bernadotte, becoming Joseph’s brother-in-law, was an ambitious man. He tried very hard to forget about his jacobin past (and to hide his famous motto « death to the tyrants », « tyrant » meaning any monarch by then, tattooed on his chest)

Bravo! Very nice work. I majored in French history, and this a perfect introduction to this period of European history. How strange are the ways of destiny and fate. Jilted by Napoleon, her blood flows through the veins of many current monarchs. Also jilted by Napoleon, Josephine's descendants sit on every throne in Europe, except Great Britain. Napoleon left no legitimate heirs. Who's laughing now Napoleon??

Her life was no fairy tale. She lived through the incredibly violent and frightening Revolution, and was thrust into a life she had not been raised to live, and had no taste for. Even in Paris she was not always safe. The Swedish court treated her with disdain and humiliated her because she was the daughter of a tradesman. She was perhaps not admirable in every respect, but it is not a sin to be simple or even to enjoy comfort, luxury, and the big city.

A very nice presentation of Desirée's life, but I think her later days as queen of Sweden were not so terribly happy: Her husband the king (who had grown cranky with age) appointed her ladies in waiting without consulting her, she didn't speak Swedish and was thus somewhat isolated, and she was viewed by the nobles as "only a merchant's daughter." Her son Oskar predeceased her, to her sorrow, and she became eccentric in her old age. But she was admired for her good heart, and for refraining from interfering in politics. Not really a fairy tale ending.

He was not such a great guy. The Swedes almost kicked him out at one point. He became more and more conservative as he aged, and was rather eccentric by the end. His growing conservatism and his affairs made him a less than congenial partner for Desirée as they got older--he picked her ladies without consulting with her.

Karl XIV Johan (Charles XIV John in English) was not Charles IV John in Norway, he was Charles III John. Charles I of Norway was the medieval king known as Karl Knutsson Bonde or (incorrectly) as Charles VIII (he was actually the second Swedish king named Charles, but the later king Charles IX took his numeral from a list of kings that included fictional kings, the medieval kings of Sweden did not use numerals (like Charles VII or more correctly Charles I who is known as Karl Sverkersson) although Karl Knutsson is named as Charles II on his wife's tombstone. Karl XIII was Charles II in Norway (Bernadotte practically ruled as crown prince but Charles XIII was king in 1814 when the Swedish-Norwegian union was formed), thus Karl XIV Johan was Charles III John and his grandson Karl XV was Charles IV in Norway.

12 years old ? They matured early then, but not that early. Of course it was her money, those larcenous Bonaparte's. Passed around like a designer purse this girl.
