"I know that face... strange though it seems... younger and kinder - it haunts all my dreams"

No Count of Monte Cristo adaptation I've ever seen has potrayed Mercedes as poor.

In the book, she lives in a hovel with a dirt floor, and she has so little that she doesn't even own the nets she uses to fish - she has to borrow them from Fernand.

Yet in every adaptation I'm aware of, she's portrayed as either middle class or upper class. The adaptations refuse to portray an impoverished woman as desirable.

I think this is also partly to do with the fact that Hollywood will allow stories of an underdog sailor courting a wealthy woman, but they're less inclined to protray a working class man's devotion to a working class woman who's even poorer than he is, let alone two men finding her desirable.

Monte Christo cats part 2 ✌ (The first drawing is a scene from this Russian production!)

Image descriptions: 5 greyscale drawings of anthro cats. The first is a drawing of two cats dancing in profile, with the view cut off at their knees. The left cat is a short, round black cat wearing a sleeveless dress, long velvet gloves, & tassel earrings. She's singing with a somber expression, and reaching out to touch the other cat's face. The other cat is sleek with a long snout & pale tabby markings. He's wearing a black leather coat & leather gloves. He's looking down at the other cat- his expression is almost angry, but he's smiling. He's holding up one of the other cat's hands. The second drawing is of a fluffy dark tabby cat walking towards the viewer. In one hand he holds a rapier. He's wearing thick gloves, a grey vest, a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up, white pants, & dark shoes. His tail is fluffed up & he's looking to the side angrily, baring his teeth in a strained smile. The third drawing is of a grey cat wearing a simple dress. She's standing, leaning forward slightly, with one hand clenched in a fist by her heart & the other holding onto her skirt. She's singing with her eyes closed. The fourth drawing is a bust of a round tabby cat with a pale snout. He's wearing a white shirt, waistcoat, & a loose bow tie. He's cringing with his teeth bared & eyes shut tight. The fifth and final drawing is a bust of the fluffy tabby from earlier. He's facing the right with his right arm extended in front of him- his hand is out of frame. He snarls angrily, "you've started this game, & I'm going to end it!" End descriptions.
