If we could go back in time Gwyneth Paltrow would have been a great Camilla Macaulay.

I’ve been in The Secret History fandom for three days and one of my favorite things is that everyone seems to look at each other, nod, and go “this would be an awful movie.”
#you’d lose half the story in a movie#fandom doesn’t seem like the right word somehow#I still like looking at fake casting though#can I just have trailers and clips of stuff I want to see?#the secret history#tsh#henry winter#richard papen#charles macaulay#camilla macaulay#francis abernathy#bunny corcoran#julian morrow

what would you ask the cast of MotA?
I have a connection (which shall remain unexplained) who will have an opportunity to attend a MotA early-screening/Q&A soon, and he has very few questions prepared (silly boys amiright?). And I told him he had to prep something just in case (mostly so I can live vicariously through him). Anyway it got me thinking and I wanna ask the other MotA enthusiasts on the interwebs.
so, whatcha got?
(gonna tag a couple of off-the-top-of-my-head my fellow MotA enthusiasts to get a convo goin but pass this along fr: @precious-little-scoundrel, @girlnairb, @steph-speaks, @blurredcolour, @avonne-writes)
#I would ask them about their favorite theme in the series and which they thought was most important to convey#Like leadership principles / mental health/coping methods / brotherhood / general historical accuracy#I mean we all know historical accuracy isn’t too high on the list (lookin at Harry being a goober)#I also think it’d be hilarious to hear what the cast think about portraying (mostly) American history as non-Americans lol#Fr send your ideas here because I’ll pass them along to my contact#That feels like something a secret agent would say and that’s hilarious to me lol#masters of the air#callum turner#austin butler#mota#austin butler major gale buck cleven#gale cleven#john egan#bucky egan#mota spoilers#buck cleven#harry crosby#anthony boyle

Replying to @fantasyinvader’s post mentionning how Linhardt and Hanneman are more interested in - especially if you don’t poach them - science than leading the people, or even, the people themselves, I wanted to make a post about Lin’s support with Catherine, which is played as a “for science!” support where Cat is amazed at his dedication to research stuff...
But it has those ominous lines :
But to continue my research without taking this chance to know the truth—what would be the point?
Besides ignorance can breed even greater dangers.
Linhardt wants to know “the Truth” and says ignorance breeds dangers... Which is a reasonable point to make, but this is immediately followed by this :
For example, do you know for whom Thunderbrand was originally crafted?
We’re talking about the “truth” hidden about the relics - which is more dangerous, ignorance or people who know “the truth”??
The goddess.
Catherine replies with an argument of authority, most likely the only Rhea thought would make most people stop thinking too much about the hows of Relics and drop the topic...
But not Linhardt!
Correct. And because of that, everyone just stops thinking about it.
Yes, that’s the point.
No one really knows what the Relic is made of, how it was crafted, or what its very structure may be.
Until we know those things and truly understand the power and the danger Relics hold...
We won't be able to...gain any new knowledge. I'm tired of talking.
^^^^
This, this is the reason why that secret was made, and the truth hidden! And while those are, say, reasonable questions to have about “magic weapons”, bear in mind Linhardt’s natural route - i.e. where he isn’t poached - with Catherine is SS, where we later learn Nemesis got “more power” from the corpses of the Nabateans...
(Which can be tied to the WoH and Willy’s war, as depicted in Houses, as he “crushed people who wanted more power”, are we talking about people who knew where and how Nemesis got his shinies and wanted more shinies?)
Linhardt will have this new “knowledge”, but what will he do with that knowledge? What are going to be the consequences? Should that truth be revealed? Would he try to kill a Nabatean to test a theory about Relic making?
This support touches one of the themes completely eluded by the game about Truth and if it should always be shared with the World, or if some truths should be hidden to protect some people -
SS!Linhardt is someone sensible (sort of, he also has this line against SS’s final boss “Well, that's something, isn't it? A shame we must kill her. Consider the research potential...“...) who wouldn’t skin Flayn alive to see if her bones can really be used to make a relic...
But unrecruited Linhardt or even CF!Linhardt doesn’t give a fuck about being sensible or not, fights alongside Baldo’n’Waldi, which raises an entire can of worms, can we really believe Linhardt, who’s passioned by Crests and their applications, would just roll with Baldo’n’Waldi popping up as Crests Beasts, heck, when some of the War Assets are artificially engineered by the Empire, who also makes artificial Crest Stones? Wouldn’t Linhardt try to, idk, know how those “things” are made, and oversee researches himself?
He has the common sense to spare Indech, by not rattling him to Supreme Leader and Hubert in CF, but is it because Indech has no interest for him in CF, so he doesn’t want the battlefield to become more “bothersome” since it’s useless to kill him, or for some reason, wanted to spare him because he’s still the same guy who’s afraid of blood and hates bloodshed, but when it came to Baldo’n’Waldi he cannot give any fucks?
#random thoughts#the more i think about them the less i appreciate the members of the besf at first it was just meh#but then this#maybe it's a side effect from npoes#it's always the same question if humans know what relics are made of will they make more relics or refrain from making any?#given how Fodlan's history shows how some humans are power hungry#what would stop them from slaughtering Seteth to make a shiny bone club?#but the red herring about 'church BaD bcs hides stuff' is stronger than making the player and the cast think about#revealing the truth and its consequences#in a way if CF is a worst case scenario Nabateans trusted humans with their secrets and here they come 1k years later after them#it's a hc at this point i have but willy's reaction when some dude from a tribe said he knew how to make golden weapons was to slaughter#that dude and his entire tribesmen#which of course made Seiros the Warrior furious#but to willy there were no other solutions#FE16#that's why VW's ending is not satisfying imo#Rhea conveniently dies but what about Flayn and Seteth#Claude wouldn't make relics would he? but what if he tells his children how to make them?#and 1k years we have another Supreme Leader?

Reading the secret history rn and damn.. idc what anyone says but Henry and Richard are literally just Hannibal and Will in a college/boarding school setting. The way Henry is so hellbent/fascinated with murder and “becoming” while Richard is first reluctant about it but slowly descending into a downward spiral and finally snapping as well because of his influence is so hannigram coded.
#and bunny being mason just further strengthens my argument#also considering I've seen a handful of TSH fancasts with Michael Pitt being casted as bunny is so cathartic to me.#so. much. parallels.#the secret history#the secret history brainrot#hannibal#though I know Francis and Richard's relationship is more prominently talked about in the fandom#idc I still feel like Henry and Richard's relationship has more dynamic and depth which ultimately doesn't make it feel forced as per sé#unlike the former#anyways random hot take that might give me a one way ticket to the guillotine LMAO#oh y3ah uh#spoiler alert#sorry girliepops

I am JUST out of the premiere of A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes and listen. Listen. I need to know if others have also seen the Vision™ that is the guy who played Snow and Hunter Schafer as the perfect Charles and Camilla casting. Im talking SPECIFICALLY to people who've seen the movie bc I just googled the Snow actor and he looks NOTHING like he does in the movie but LISTEN. IF YOU'VE SEEN THAT MOVIE AND READ TSH PLS TELL ME YOU SEE IT AND IM NOT COMPLETELY INSANE???
#i already had Hunter Schafer as one of my ideal casting for Camilla and the movie just reinforced it#But the Snow guy.#PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME YOU'VE SEEN IT#I KNOW IT'S NOT OUT YET#BUT IT WILL BE TOMORROW#PLEASE GO AND COME BACK TO ME#BECAUSE I'VE BEEN SEEING CHARLES IN HIM FOR THE LAST 2 HOURS AND 37 MINUTES#it's been a hell of a day and i almost crashed my car and i need sleep#goodnight fellas#the secret history#charles macaulay#camilla macaulay

“He was quiet for a moment. 'We don't run much to looks in my family, you know, all knuckles and cheekbones and beaky noses,' he said.”
I think I’ve found Francis Abernathy.

henry winter, the kingpin.
pt. 2 of my the secret history fan cast series
𖢻 zane holtz as henry winter
why zane?
𖢻 zane is a really popular fan cast and for good reason. he screams henry: he’s strong, tall, intimidating but attractive. and the glasses he uses in dusk til dawn? perfection. he’s a little bit old for the cast i’m making, but i think having henry be played by an slightly older actor could add to the power dynamic that he has, and give him that extra edge of maturity and respect that henry demands. (even if it is not warranted) i also really love louis garrel as henry but that man is like 40 and cannot pass as a uni student lmao, so we comprised with zane i still really like him
