One Word Movie Review- The Other Boleyn Girl

I actually have a few more words to say about this movie, especially because the costumes were breathtaking. I wish French hoods would be acceptable for everyday wear. Sigh.

The “B” necklace that Anne Boleyn wore in the film was worn by the controversial queen in real life. It will probably be a popular trend in accessories this year, bringing back the personalized name/initial jewelry, but with a Tudors-influenced spin on it. Ugly Betty has been sporting it for a while, but her character obviously doesn’t have the same trend-starting powers as let’s say, Carrie Bradshaw. I can’t hate on that necklace, I think it looked pretty cute on Natalie Portman. It’s probably easy to make too, unless you have an extra $200 laying around you can get it here. In a few weeks I’m sure it will be popping up all over Etsy as well.

And now, more of every man’s fantasy, and strangely enough, mine…

    Scarlett makes Natalie Portman look like a lonelyheart spinstress. …and I don’t even think blonde people are remotely attractive, generally. Vavavoom.

    I want to be ahead of the game and get me one of those Pearl chokers with the ‘B.’

    The ‘B’ won’t stand for “Boleyn.” It will stand for “Beyonce.” Since I so closely resemble her.

    I always want an initial necklace, but I think the “L” is so boring looking.

    I heart period pieces, I’m going to go see this!

  4. star Says:

    I haven’t seen the movie, but I’m immediately bummed out that Anne Boleyn doesn’t appear to have an extra finger in Portman’s portrayal. I always thought her sixth finger was her most endearing trait.

  5. C-Monster Says:

    what about C? Does anyone make a C?

  6. marie Says:

    @Vidalia- I rarely like blondes either, aside from my teenage crush on Drew Barrymore. And Macauley Culkin.

    @Shaun, you got the moves and that ATTITUDE that’s for sure. blol

    @ Leyla- Yours would be a “T” in going with the Boelyn tradition. I would have the boring old “L”.

    @Star - a sixth finger!! Maybe it’s in the deleted scenes.

    @ C-Monster- yes m’dear I’m sure you can get a C. Or maybe a few more letters. C-Mon! Bad joke/pun.

    BLOL I just looked up Scarlett’s Wikipedia and found this great prank “Johansson is a cheese fanatic, saying: “My greatest vice is cheese. Nothing else reigns over my life.”[37].Her favourite type of cheese is dick cheese.”

    And now it is gone! Hilar.

  8. Future Mr. Scarlett Johansson Says:

    Although the “almost” kiss between the two is nice, no complaints here, my fantasy would be me in place of Natalie.

    I am one of the biggest anne boleyn fanatics, and i have been since i was five, when i saw “Anne of the Thousand Days,” which is a very good movie. I enjoyed the book The Other Boleyn Girl, but the movie was terrible! It makes Anne look like a terrible, mean whore! and she was none of those things. She simply wanted her revenge for having her one love taken from her (Henry Percy} and yes the movie makes her look like a skank, but the movie was completely inaccurate.
    I suggest anyone who is interested in Anne Boleyn read the book, The Lady in the Tower by Jean Plaidy. It is a very interesting book.
