♔ “Gathering her daughter in her arms, Anne Boleyn ran to the King, desperate to convince him of her innocence. This scene was witnessed by Scottish theologian, Alexander Alesius, who later recounted what he had seen on 30th April 1536 in a letter to Elizabeth I, written soon after she had ascended the throne:
'Never shall I forget the sorrow which I felt when I saw the most
serene Queen, your most religious mother, carrying you, still a little
baby, in her arms and entreating the most serene King, your father,
in Greenwich Palace, from the open window of which he was looking into
the courtyard, when she brought you to him. I did not perfectly
understand what had been going on, but the faces and gestures of the
speakers plainly showed that the King was angry, although he could
conceal his anger wonderfully well.'
Perhaps Anne had seized upon Elizabeth as being the best means of persuading her husband that she was innocent. If Anne had used her daughter in a last, desperate attempt to save her own life, it was in vain.”
When I was writing the Fortnight music video, I wanted to show you the worlds I saw in my head that served as the backdrop for making this music. Pretty much everything in it is a metaphor or a reference to one corner of the album or another. For me, this video turned out to be the perfect visual representation of this record and the stories I tell in it. Post Malone blew me away on set as our tortured tragic hero and I’m so grateful to him for everything he put into this collaboration. I’m still laughing from getting to work with the coolest guys on earth, Ethan Hawke and Josh Charles (tortured poets, meet your colleagues from down the hall, the dead poets). I still can’t believe I get to work with the unfathomably brilliant Rodrigo Prieto on cinematography and my team of dream collaborators: Ethan Tobman (production design), Chancler Haynes (editor), Anthony Dimino (1st AD), Jil Hardin (producer) and Dom Thomas (executive producer). Parliament aced the VFX as always. Joseph Cassell, Lorrie Turk and Jemma Muradian made these tortured looks come to life. The entire crew made this a dream to shoot. Thank you to everyone involved and everyone who has watched it!!
