Yeah, I have the DVD, and I watched the special features, but I don't recall that....I might watch it again, just to see, but if they really said that it would be quite upsetting.
It really played out like a biography of Maxime mixed in with a biography of Capet and Antoinette, though; it was very odd. It was as if they weren't even trying to make it about the Revolution as whole, and I suppose I can see why to some extent, since they only had two hours to cover it.
Seriously though, if they got people who knew what they were doing to make a mini-series about the Revolution, it would be very awesome. It's a pity they won't, since the History Channel tends to focus on American history and it just recently made the above-mentioned documentary.
