Listen, is it a perfect adaptation of the book… absolutely not… NO… is it ever a perfect adaptation of a book… not every movie can be lord of the rings. Did I enjoy every second of it.. OH GOD YES.. did I miss lines that are to me iconic in the book that we’re not in the movie… also YES… but I can still love every second of this movie and watch it over and over and over again…
hey so I started with the movie and now I'm here and I just need y'all to know my shock when I didn't know how it would look under the slip cover or inside I just -
I wore my "History, huh?" shirt today and my mom and dad (separately) pointed, laughed, and said "that's a good one" or "that's funny" THINKING it means like "history?? wtf was that?" when in reality its from a book about the presidents son and a prince of Britain hooking up and falling in love and then getting outed and by the end you're a sobbing, homosexual mess.
If that summary has peaked your interest and you have not read Red, white, and royal blue before, I hope this picture will convince you to read it
And for those of you who have....
I sincerely hope this is enough to make you read it again and/or cry.
Not me getting asked AT WORK BY A CUSTOMER for the name and sculptor of a bronze figure that is, I quote, 'in the background in a scene in Red, White & Royal Blue, you know, the movie?'
(Me, internally: yea we all know which scene you're talking about *screaming*)
Me, in my customer-facing role: Right, mmhmm mmhmm *looks at the picture in a very calm and collected way* yeah that's in the Sculpture galleries, Room 21
Just gonna stare into the sun and think about Alex’s first self centred and entirely self indulgent Big Decision, the first choice he made that didn’t factor in approval ratings or his mum’s administration or the number of people he could one day help was to love Henry on purpose for the rest of time tyvm
Bestie "blaize <3" is now in my most popular tags and that makes me very happy 🤗
Same with me and "lore <3"!!!!
It feels like leaving a little bit of history behind on the world! If people from the future ever find this, it'll be, like, proof of our friendship!!! I love that!!!
