Hello. I'm Marina, a passionate art and history writer, artist, and an ever-curious mind. I am also the soul behind the art history discovery app called Smart Art - Art History Escape.
Once I've noticed, that every time I end up watching a film, I immediately dig into searching for the true life facts behind it. Perhaps, I'm not alone who likes this kind of historic exploration?
In this youtube channel, I share my video essays provoked by the beautiful movies and series that were inspired by the fascinating people and events of the past and invite you to hop on this journey of discovery with me! I hope you enjoy it!

Well put, actually I knew the detail about Alexei, also that actually, one of the things the movie gets wrong, was that Rasputin, for his supposed ability to heal Alexei of his condition whenever he was near the boy, became a very close friend and advisor to Nicolas and especially Alexandra, and also, though Rasputin was partially responsible for the revolution, he was not the causer of the rebellion as the movie portrays.
Such a sad story. My family came to America before the revolution. Hard for me to watch the cartoon knowing the real history
I totally agree
Deserved
Same
@@mangored209 The kids had nothing to with politics, how can you say they deserved that?
@@mangored209 um not the kids, they had no say in their own lives so aren't to blame for anything.
This Anastasia was based on a woman who claimed she was Anastasia. Though her case didn't go through because of WW2, it was weird to note that she have the same medical circumstances like the duchess. Some say the dog died along with them during the killing and that no one survive that day, not even the servants and doctor.
I have a whole long video dedicated to that where I uncovered all the details about her impostor: th-cam.com/video/daIr7fTJxOs/w-d-xo.html
@@marina_viacan you tag me in your video I can’t find it in your channel
Wrong DNA also
Yes, she claimed but it wasn't true. This womens grave is here in my town in Bavaria.
They found out she was actually a lost Polish woman. They found Alexei's and Anastasia's body in 2007, only a small distance from the rest of the family. (This has been my special interest since childhood)
Supposedly when the army arrived they found Joy wandering the house howling for his master. Poor dog
Poor Joy must have missed his owner so much! Great video!❤
Poor them all...
@@marina_via Nicholas II was personally responsible for the deaths of thousands of people, he brutally ordered multiple protests to be shut down by killing people on the spot, but yes "poor" them ALL.
Poor joy? Huh? She lived. But i guess not poor family that all died? And you caring about a dog more?
@@Plants28 Commenting about Joy doesn’t mean I don’t care about the family🙄 What’s ur problem
Poor dog indeed! The family’s father wasn’t a good Ruler but his family appeared nice. They probably loved the dog so well and one min joy’s family is there then they are gone. Hopefully the dog didn’t see his family executed.
In real life Anastasia and Alexei were very close, neither of them liked sitting still for long and they both liked mischief and pranks (you could write a book just about their pranks and funny things that they did!), Anastasia soon learned that her little brother was always game for a spot of mischief and they seemed to be able to read each other's minds.
Alexei had a limp after an accident in 1912, he had a hernia so they fixed it with surgery (the idea being by the time of the 300 year anniversary of Romanov rule festivities the year after he would be fully recovered and well enough to take part) but then he had a minor bump jumping into a boat which he seemed to recover from but then not long after while on holiday in Poland he started bleeding and wouldn't stop bleeding and for days on end he was at death's door and the priests even administered the last rites because everyone thought he was a goner but then Rasputin saved him by sending a telegram with useful advice and he started getting better. It was a year before he could walk again and incidentally at the 300 years celebrations he hurt his ankle or something and had to be carried about by a giant Cossack which didn't help the rumours about his health; the public didn't know what was wrong with him but they knew something was up.
One of Alexei's most famous pranks took place on his 13th birthday which it so happened was the day before the Imperial family left the Palace for the last time. Alexei posed for a photo by a lake with his eldest sister Olga and as he later wrote in his diary "threw Olga fully clothed into the lake!"
They knew Joy was Alexei's dog when they found it in the Ipatiev house because it understood English.
Actually both Alexei and Anastasia survived the initial attack but not too long ago it was confirmed that some remains near the ex3cution were theirs.
All the daughters were ‘initially’ unharmed. They were murdered primarily with bayonets. They were absolutely killed around the same time as their parents. The Bolshevik soldiers fired hundreds of bullets.
The murder was absolute caos and took 20 minutes to complete which is just horrific . Many of the soldiers didn’t want to shoot the girls so they tried not to aim for them . Initially many of the female family members survived because they had sown jewels into their under garments essentially creating body armor . Because of this the soldiers panicked and kept wildly shooting before finally bayonetting the victims to death . According to the account 2 of the children when taken out somehow were still alive and so they were stabbed again. The execution was completely bungled and made a horrific situation so much worse
Don’t forget Natasha, she survived until October 18, 2023!
@@lost_l0ser154Natasha?
@@lost_l0ser154who is that
I'm glad that somebody found it in his heart to rescue that poor dog.
King George probably felt terrible about it that's why he allowed Joy to live out her days at Windsor
As he should have. He had a chance to provide a means of rescue for the family at one point.
@@mjrussell414 You have to understand things from his perspective. Nicholas II being housed in England might fuel the growing Republican movement. The Bolsheviks were feared, but Nicholas was disliked because of the actions of Bloody Sunday and his incompetent (and sometimes bloodthirsty) handling of the Russian-Japanese war and WW1.
Alexandra was also German. Hostility towards Germany was at an all-time high due to WW1. He had a better chance of saving the children, but not the parents.
@@mjrussell414Nicholas had a chance to get his girls out too, but he opted to keep the family together instead.
@@xmissknowitallx7627I have heard Nicholas was a family man. I can see his point on wanting to keep the family. However it sounds like he didn’t grasp the reality of the situation. You get the kids out first, and out of harms way.
@@xmissknowitallx7627
I wished Nicholas and Alexandra might have sent their children to Finland, then the might survived and be snuggled into the U.K. or even the U.S.
Oh wow I didn’t know about Joy. I actually love the Romanov family and have spent so much time learning all about them, but I don’t know much about their pets. Thanks for sharing this story. ❤
Oh, thank you @loverrlee maybe I should think of a dedicated video about them?.. Anyways, I tell the real-life stories of all the support characters from Anastasia in my ling videos, maybe, that could be of interest for you too th-cam.com/play/PLBXS1YaytisNbPsYnXGUP9RZX3_svRQwg.html
@@marina_via
Yes I knew about it. Rescued because he was adorable. And Anastasia was believed to have survived because her body was not found. It was in 2009 or something
Depressing...just depressing...
The movie is entirely loosely based on the character of Anastasia, what people's opinion of her probably was and the writer's opinion, it's another way to remember the family's history and what tangibility had they've left behind
I didnt know the story was real until this, i didnt realize how much I related to it, I had family immigrate from Russia to the US in 1905 because my family wanted to live in peace and not war. Such a sad story
While I wouldn't want anyone, who didn't deserve it, to be taken out. It never sat right with me that they also took out the kids in this family. Why the kids? They didn't do whatever it was that was so wrong.
And who gives the right to any individual to DECIDE WHO DESERVES TO BE TAKEN OUT????When someone puts themselves in that position to make that decision>>THEY SHOULD BE TAKEN OUT
Because they were a symbol of the Romanov dynasty + there was a chance that people who wanted to overthrow the Bolsheviks would use Alexei as a champion of the cause.
Say the children, specifically Alexei since women were barred from the throne by Emperor Paul’s decree, grew up… would Alexei forgive his father’s murderers?
Murder of children is always wrong, but the Lenin was pragmatic.
Russian government offer for this family moved to there relatives, in foreign country’s, but relatives refuse. In this case it was about powers. Anyway, it much more complicated, than usually admitted
It's pretty simple. The objective of the killings was not to take out somebody who did something wrong, but to take out anyone who might later have a claim against the Bolsheviks, who wanted to keep power forever. That dictated taking out the entire family.
Such a Sad story 😢 love the movie Anastasia
Have studied this beautiful family extensively.A portrait of true and undying love🙏🙌🇷🇺
If you studied the family the last of the Romans live in Canada but she too old now to keep the name going. CBC did a documentary on her if interested
Anastasia also had a dog, named Jimmy, but he died either with them or a short time afterwards
yes, she did... incredibly sad story
That's so sad.
I love this!!!
I never knew that about the real dog. Ty 🧡
yeah, I didn't know that before too! I shared tons of other curious details about all that in long videos, have a look , if you feel interested 🙂
Grand Duchess Tatiana also had a dog that was a French bulldog, which was given to her by a Russian soldier named Dmitri Malama, who she had a crush on, and was named Ortipo, after his horse...I think?
This is so sad!
Another inaccuracy in the movie: Anastasia marries Dimitri at the end of the film. Dimitri was a commoner con artist. In real life royals weren't allowed to marry anyone less than a royal. If they married a commoner, the royal and their future children would be disinherited.
Would have been a morganatic marriage at best; but from what I read, there were thoughts about letting the girls marry non-royals... as there wouldn't be many actual eligible royals left after the war. But then, that question was rendered academic, of course. 😞
@@thekingsdaughter4233 There were plenty of actual eligible royals from other countries.
The story was based on Anna Anderson
I have never heard of this movie and I've only heard the story of the execution so should be a nice movie to watch
no one lived.
It is that fking simple to understand and yet people still say that someone lived.
Just looking at this, it makes sense that Alexei could have been alive.
He would not survive because he has hemophilia
Poor Joy. Thank you for explaining this, I had no idea.
Well put, actually I knew the detail about Alexei, also that actually, one of the things the movie gets wrong, was that Rasputin, for his supposed ability to heal Alexei of his condition whenever he was near the boy, became a very close friend and advisor to Nicolas and especially Alexandra, and also, though Rasputin was partially responsible for the revolution, he was not the causer of the rebellion as the movie portrays.
Well, at least they didn't kill the dog. But yeah, they all died. One of her sisters got away and ran into the woods but was still shot and killed.
The other dog Anastasia was holding was killed in the basement
Please stop lying. None of the sisters ran away. They were all trapped in the basement. Tatiana, Anastasia and Maria were killed with bayonets because they had diamonds sewn into their clothes. Alexei had two shots fired into his head to kill him because the gems he wore beneath his tunic blocked his death.
Read an actual book on the Romanov dynasty.
@@thenablade858 “It was one of the great mysteries of the 20th century. In the early hours of July 17 1918 a Bolshevik firing squad killed Russia's last tsar, Nicholas II, together with his wife, four young daughters and son. The Romanov family were dug up in 1991, formally identified using DNA samples, and reburied in a St Petersburg cathedral.
But two of the Romanovs were never found. The bodies of the tsar's heir, Prince Alexei, and his sister Princess Maria were missing. Archive evidence suggested the pair had been buried away from the others. But repeated digs at the leafy spot on the outskirts of Yekaterinburg in southern Russia, where the remains of the rest of the family were found, failed to reveal a resting place.”
Some speculate that she might have gotten away and been killed/buried elsewhere. No one knows for sure though. Maybe you should pay more attention before making accusations.
@@thenablade858 “The members of the inexperienced death squad, brandishing an assortment of firearms, were themselves hit in the melee. Nicholas died instantly but several members of the family were only injured, writhing in their own blood on the basement floor as caustic gunpowder smoke filled the air.
Their leader, Peter Ermakov, was drunk at the time and only managed to hit Maria in the thigh as she tried to run for the doors.
Panicking and fearing the cries would be overheard at street level despite the rumble of the truck, the revolutionaries set about them with bayonets, running the tsarina and her children through and firing at their heads. The violence lasted a horrifying 20 minutes, with one of the killers later recalling that the scene was as slippery as the surface of an ice rink, according to historian Simon Sebag Montefiore.
Two of the girls were still breathing when the bodies were carried out, a fact that has been cited as the origin point for the myth of Anastasia’s escape.
In fact, the only survivor of the massacre was Alexei’s pet spaniel Joy, who was subsequently rescued by Colonel Paul Rodzianko of the British Expeditionary Force and brought to live in Windsor.”
I heard/read all of this a while ago when it first came to light but yeah that’s basically it.
@@RachelScalfaniso like they said…. No one escaped into the woods..😂
Bing Bong’s death hurts every time
Oh so they saved the dog, but the crown of England refused to aid the family when they needed them. Js blood doesn’t run deep in those families
I like the Anastasia Broadway musical better than the animated movie because it's more accurate tbh.
I heard a a story to the affect the firing squad did not bring enough bullets due to the man responsible for the bullets being drunk and thay had to finish the princesses off with a spade
The story you heard is dumb.
They were armed with hundreds of bullets. They finished Tatiana, Anastasia and Maria off with bayonets because they were carrying diamonds sewed into their clothing which prevented them from dying immediately.
Wow Joy looks a lot like my Springer Spaniel, Melo! ❤️
16:19 it’s giving Twilight
It's actually disgusting and sad that Disney takes reality and twists it around so much, it ruins it. None of the family survived. Except the dog, I guess.
It's not Disney who made Anastasia. And this fairy tale was based on a woman who made claim she was Anastasia years after. The case didn't pull through as WW2 was approaching. The weird thing is the girl have same medical circumstances with Anastasia so that's where this story is probably based. A man also claimed he was Alexei but his claim is not as strong as the girl. The cases were drop later.
@@JL_Loki both the woman and the man were lying, neither of them are Anastasia or Alexei despite certain coincidences
I had several long videos where I tell this side of the story in detail
@@ratdog6317well we will never know for sure, Anastasia’s body was never found and honestly that lady just had amnesia and wondered if she was Anastasia. This was back like a few years after the assassination happened.
@@ratdog6317 nobody knows that lol, goverment hides alot of things, they can hide real dna results also. there is a reason why russian orthodox church never recognised their ‘remains’.
Tatiana, Anastasia, and Maria and Alexei were the ones to survive. Saddened by this.
I didn’t know that until I find out about the real Anastasia story as an adult.
Poor girl.
Anastasia NEVER ESCAPED!
So hard to watch this I am doing this show this year for my school I hope I can help bring some justice
The way their execution was conducted was barbaric. The Romanov family didn’t deserve it.
“When Vladimir Lenin arrived scene”
He said exploiting the was really really mean
At least the dog,Joy, was okay and lived a better life in Windsor
Twinkle little star how I wonder what you are up above the world so high like a diamond in the sky
Nice
If the king had been smarter he would have sent his family to Sweden or England
They just had a Romanoff royal wedding in Russia. Somebody survived.
Czar Nicholas' mother, two sisters and their husbands escaped Russia. They escaped aboard a ship sent by the British to try to rescue the family.
Kulak Spaniel
All those people you talked about for the Romanov’s are saints
So it was only the prince and the dog who survived
Anastasia is my mame
Same girlllll!!!!
My mom and siblings call me stassi tho
wow
Sad
... Läs boken anastasia..... ❤🤫✌️🌻🇫🇴👻
Yeah totally not weird for bunch strangers say my name so many time-
So they can kill kids but not dogs? Seems more like theft rather then salvation to me.
As far as I know the animals and the servants were also killed - because it was a ritual murder
A ritual murder? I thought they killed them becouse they hated the family
@@tiagomonteiro130 Yeah they hated the family, but their killed everything they could because it was a ritual (Bolsheviks were financed by Kaiser and Germany was full of ocultism in that time at least)
@@tripleh2621 🤦 Kaiser Wilhelm was Christian same as Germany you know how many churches he build and what he wrote in his book clearly you know shit about this World you think you are in some marvel avengers movie were the good hero allies fought the evil evil sub human Germans

Theczars cousin could have saved the whole family he was king of england but he chose not to save the family
nobody survived oml
Hi
Book anda rice ok
Any real fan knows all of this LOL
I love the Romanov family and I think Russia was better under their rule
Maybe better than the under the Bolsheviks' rule, but it wasn't good.
The dog live in windsor? You mean uk fam?😂
The UK family has a royal who was from this family married into the windors. Windsor was the name the royals took due to England fighting Germany and the UK royal family are German.
In conclusion kids, don’t reproduce with your second cousin.
If your second cousin is healthy (and you are, too) , that's not a problem. Hemophilia doesn't spontaneously occur when you marry a close relative. The problem was that Alix of Hesse was a _carrier_ of the gene for hemophilia. There was a 50:50 chance she might not have been; in which there should have been no problem. Incidentally, if memory serves, DNA tests showed that only Anastasia was a carrier, besides the boy actually being a sufferer. The three older girls were healthy. 🤷
@@thekingsdaughter4233 The Russians determined Skeleton 6 to be Anastasia, the Americans determined it to be Tatiana. Heck it could even be Maria.
Tragic that king George had the means to help.and save the yet didn't
Hemophilia did not cause the limp. A fall did.
Hemophilia _can_ cause joint pain; so that was probably the thought behind it.
Is Melania Trump related to Anastasia? Is Melania the Queen Of Russia now? Putin shows Melania great respect when he greets her.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
A historical story that should NEVER be a cartoon...Putin a result of this bent thinking...another disney propaganda
They still have not found Alexei's remains to this day.
Would'nt it be something if the little boy who suffered from Hemophilia was the one who miraculously survived the Bolshevik revolution?
Remain calm
The regent endures
Alexei lives
_ hoi4 tno mod
His remains were found along with Maria's in 2007. In 2008 DNA confirmed it.
They have found him, they found him in 2007.
His and either Anastasia's or Maria's bones were discovered in 2007.
This movie is really dumb they show Rasputin as enemy dude he help them very well
He didn’t really help them at all. He was taking advantage of parents trying to find help for their child’s illness.
very controversial indeed. I guess, if we'd had a chance to ask Elaxandra (Tzarina), she would've said he was essential to them. The recollections of others vary, as usual...
@@sweethistortea You are very wrong. Holy Martyr Grigory had been martyred fir a reason just like Russian Regal Martyrs.
Holy Martyr Grigory, pray God for us, sinners!
Holy Regal Martyrs, pray God for us, sinners!
He was an evil twisted man, and even if it OF COURSE didn't play out (his influence on the family) in the cartoonish way like it did in this.... cartoon.... Yes, he was an evil, wicked man and I am sure he played a role in destroying the Romanov family.
I think it is fair to day that, examining the evidence that we have.
Showing the real way that it all happened, would have been too adult of a topic for this movie.
@@LI_Liume was not a martyr and he was not holy. If you want to pray to God, then pray the way that the Messiah instructed us, when he was here on earth. Don't pray to dead "saints." That is abominable and it is not what God wants.
