- A documentary on the French Revolution's Reign of Terror brought this into a straight "My God, What Have I Done?" moment. A reconstruction portrayed Madame Du Barry being taken to the Guillotine, and the actress acted much like the historical documents say she did - constantly trying to escape and screaming, "You're hurting me! Why?!?". The narration mentions that her screams of terror could be heard all throughout the city, and how it took several men to restrain her.
