Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. It seems like decades since I've seen this. Heck, maybe it has been. I watched it at Michelle's house, right up the street, and she moved to Phoenix in . . . had to be late 1995 or early 1996, because Mom had died, and we hadn't moved yet.

Thanks, Mac. I"m going to have to change the "last queen of France" question. Obviously, I was entrapped by the books and biographies titled "The Last Queen of France." But with your prompt, my research shows there is no way Marie Antoinette was the last Queen. Unfortunately, it gets so fuzzy with Napoleonic empresses and queens-in-exile and such, I think I'm just going to change it to "last queen before the Revolution of 1789."
