"[They] had four children:"
"- Marie-Thérèse-Charlotte (1778-12-19 – 1851-10-19);
- Louis-Joseph-Xavier-François (1781-10-22 – 1789-06-04);
- Louis-Charles (the future titular King Louis XVII of France) (1785-03-27 – 1795-06-08);
- Sophie-Hélène-Béatrix (1786-07-09 – 1787-06-19)"
"On [Louis XVI] death, his eight-year-old son, Louis-Charles, automatically became to royalists and some foreign states the de jure King Louis XVII of France, despite France having been declared a republic."

"Marie-Thérèse-Charlotte of France, Duchess of Angoulême and Dauphine of France (1778-12-19 – 1851-10-19) was the eldest child of King Louis XVI of France and his Queen, Marie Antoinette of Austria. As the wife of the eldest surviving son of Charles X, she is considered by some to have been Queen of France for the 20 minutes between her father-in-law's signing of the instrument of abdication and her husband's own signing of the document."
"The three women left in the [Temple] fortress were Marie Antoinette, Marie-Thérèse and Louis XVI's youngest sister, Madame Élisabeth. Of these three, only Marie-Thérèse was able to survive the Reign of Terror."
"It was only once the Reign of Terror subsided that Marie-Thérèse was allowed to leave France. She was taken to Vienna, where her cousin ruled as Emperor Francis II."
"She died on 1851-10-19, three days after the fifty-eighth anniversary of her mother's execution. The cause of death was pneumonia."

"Louis-Joseph Xavier Francois, Dauphin of France (1781-10-22–1789-06-04) was the second child and first son of King Louis XVI of France and Marie Antoinette of Austria. As the heir apparent to the French throne, he was called the Dauphin. A sweet-natured child, unlike Madame Royale, Louis-Joseph died at the age of seven of what was then known as "consumption" (tuberculosis). On his death the title of Dauphin passed to his younger brother Louis-Charles, Duke of Normandy (1785–1795), who would survive his father and die in prison at the age of ten."

"Louis XVII of France, also Louis VI of Navarre (1785-03-27 – 1795-06-08), from birth to 1789 known as Louis-Charles, Duke of Normandy; then from 1789 to 1791 as Louis-Charles, Dauphin of Viennois; and from 1791 to 1793 as Louis-Charles, Prince Royal of France, was the son of King Louis XVI of France and Marie Antoinette of Austria. From his father's death in 1793 to his own death in 1795, he was considered King of France and Navarre by French royalists."
"In 1793, while the royal family was being held at the Temple prison in Paris, Louis-Charles was separated from his mother and sister in order to dissuade any monarchist bids to free him. He remained imprisoned alone, a floor below his sister Marie-Thérèse, until his death in June 1795."
"He was officially reported to have died in the prison from what is today recognised as tuberculosis. An autopsy was carried out at the prison and, following a tradition of preserving royal hearts, his heart was smuggled out and preserved by the examining physician, Philippe-Jean Pelletan. Louis-Charles' body was buried in a mass grave."
"Rumours quickly spread, however, that the body buried was not that of Louis-Charles and that he had been spirited away alive by sympathizers. Thus was born the legend of the "Lost Dauphin." When the Bourbon monarchy was restored in 1814, hundreds of claimants came forward. Would-be royal heirs continued to appear across Europe for decades afterward and some of their descendants still have small but loyal retinues of followers today. Popular candidates for the Lost Dauphin included John James Audubon, the naturalist; Eleazer Williams, a missionary from Wisconsin of Mohawk Native American descent; and Karl Wilhelm Naundorff, a German clockmaker. Mark Twain satirized the host of claimants in the characters of the Duke and the Dauphin, the con men in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn."
"As many as 100 "false dauphins" appeared over the years; all were exposed and their real identities discovered."

"Sophie Hélène Béatrix of France (1786-07-09 - 1787-06-19) was the youngest daughter of Louis XVI of France and his Queen, Marie Antoinette of Austria." ... "Her death was a cause for much sorrow on the part of both of her parents."

That probably is the stupidest question I've heard all year! First of all...getting hit by a bus IS NOT FUNNY! OR EVEN FUN! and second of all...if you don't want to watch the movie...THEN DON'T!! I personally haven't watched the movie yet...BUT...I'd have to say...it's everyone's own taste and choice. Just because you didn't like it, it doesn't mean that someone else won't like it either. Everyone should watch it (if they are interested) and then judge it by their own experience.
