Love and death, the foreshadowing of echoing from beginning to end, wonderful!

In the moment of love (after passion, to be precise), the countess lies in the arms of her lover, who says in a whim:

"Isn't it weird to think that a lot of people are dying in wars when we're lying together and enjoying each other."

When the countess was about to step into the sealed castle to die, the countess said to the judge (actually to her lover):

"Isn't it strange to think so, when I was sentenced here, how many lovers were in each other's warm arms."

The echo of life and death, the echo of the death sentence and the warm embrace, describes the foreshadowing of the first place, wonderful!

The Countess quotes

  • King Matthias: Every month I sign dozens of death warrants for those witches. It has become worse than the plague. When will it stop?

    Chancellor: When men become wise... which will not be soon.

  • Erzebet Bathory: God, you have abandoned me. In war hundreds are killed and tortured and they are left there to rot and feed the vultures. And yet, we glorify our warriors. We give them laurel wreaths and honors. But all I get is torment, I cannot be humiliated this way. Give me an illness that will kill me fast. I cannot do it myself, I must go to heaven. Amen.
