The Birching of Lady Jane Grey (Helena Bonham Carter)




No doubt you will remember the scene well, not so much for what it showed but for the build up and the atmosphere.  Someone did a good job stringing the stills together and adding some bits we wish were part of the original.

Ha ha! That is wonderful. But I prefer to think that Ms. Bonham-Carter would insist on doing her own stunt work of this kind.

I like the birching of Lady Jane Grey, on her bare bottom, as played by Helena Bonham Carter. But I sure would have liked to have seen the man she rejected, give her the thrashing on her naked rear end.
