En kongelig affære (2012)

Alicia Vikander in A Royal Affair (2012) as Caroline Matilda of Great Britain

I'm trying to remember him. Johann. I have to tell you about him. About us. Why we did the things we did. My beloved children, you do not know me, but I am your mother. Perhaps you have never forgiven me. Perhaps you hate me. I hope not. I now know that I will never see you again, so I am writing to tell you the truth, before it's too late. As I am sure you have already seen with your own eyes, Denmark has regressed to the Middle Ages since Johann died. While the rest of Europe blossoms, your country has become a dark place controlled by faith and suspicion. My dear children, if I could only see you now. Who have you become? Frederik, did you inherit Christian's temper? Louise, do you have Johann's eyes?

Dear Struensee, come sit with us.

“My beloved children, you do not know me, but I am your mother. Perhaps you have never forgiven me. Perhaps you hate me. I hope not. I now know that I will never see you again, so I am writing to tell you the truth, before it's too late.”

Man is born free, and everywhere he is in shackles.
