I just saw The Invitation (the 2022 one not the 2015 one) and I NEED to talk about it with someone. I liked this movie way too much apparently. 😫😫
Someone hit me up bc I need someone to obsess over it with me.
And no. I don’t care that apparently everyone else thought it was meh.
P.s. Lucy deserved better!!

Lucy had more patience and grace than me and if I were Walter I would have killed Viktoria as soon she started making problems. And anyways I don’t know how he thought that would work out in the end having his first wife and his last wife who don’t like each other immortal and in the same house. Where’s this man’s common sense.

Theophanu was a Byzantine noblewoman, whose uncle acceded to the throne. That she was not herself of imperial descent, not born to the purple (porphyrogenita), but a niece of the man who had taken over the throne in a coup (John Tzimiskes), was a source of disappointment to some when she married the son of Otto I. But Theophanu had been educated to play a role in an imperial court. She was personally impressive and intelligent and she participated in her husband’s government, traveling with him, the court had no fixed center , even on military campaigns.They had five children, of whom four survived: Otto III, Adelaide, Sophia and Matilda. When Otto II died in December 983, Theophanu served as regent for their son, Otto III, at first sharing the regency with her mother-in-law, empress Adelaide, but eventually taking over on her own.
Though she had differences with her mother-in-law, empress Adelaide, some of them inherited from her husband, the two worked together to secure the throne for Otto III from his cousin, Henry II of Bavaria (“the Wrangler”), who had proclaimed himself king. Theophanu died in 991, still in her 30’s.The chronicler Thietmar eulogized her as follows: "Though [Theophanu] was of the weak sex she possessed moderation, trustworthiness, and good manners. In this way she protected with male vigilance the royal power for her son, friendly with all those who were honest, but with terrifying superiority against rebels."
- S: Communications and Power in Medieval Europe, The Carolingian and Ottonian Centuries, ed. Timothy Reuter, (London: Hambledon, 1994),

I gotta say. The invitation did a really good job at creating a distinct shift from the modern environment in the beginning to at the mansion.
Idk why but even though I *know* Evie has her cellphone and regularly video calls with Grace I completely forget they are in the 21st century.
And I don’t realize it until maid 2 (IMDb tells me her name is Imogen) is told to clean the library and she pulls out headphones and an mp3 player.

After the death of her mother and having no other known relatives, Evie (Nathalie Emmanuel) takes a DNA test...and discovers a long-lost cousin she never knew she had.
