now I know how Joan of Arc felt
as the flames rose to her roman nose

first Princess of Wales was named Joan: Joan of Kent.
In the
lyrics on THE QUEEN IS DEAD, the only death
is Joan of Arc, history's most venerated Joan. ...

Ingrid Bergman starred as Joan of Arc in the
film JOAN OF ARC released in 1948. ...
Ingrid Bergman starred as
"Joan" in the film "ARCH" OF TRIUMPH released in 1948. ...
The single BIGMOUTH STRIKES AGAIN from
THE QUEEN IS DEAD refers to the death of "Joan of Arc" and has a cover
photograph of actor James Dean taken in 1948.
Ingrid
Bergman starred as Joan of Arc in the film JOAN OF ARC released in 1948. Ingrid Bergman also starred as "Joan" in
the film ARCH OF TRIUMPH released
in 1948. ...
Does Morrissey's mentioning of "Joan of Arc" actually point to the
film "ARCH OF TRIUMPH" starring Ingrid Bergman as "Joan"?
Consider
the correlations between Morrissey's lyrics to BIGMOUTH STRIKES AGAIN and
the key moments in ARCH OF TRIUMPH:
In the crisis to ARCH OF TRIUMPH, Joan's refugee boyfriend (the hero
of the film) is deported, at which time his friend tells Joan:
"A man without passport has lost his membership in the human race."
Likewise, in BIGMOUTH STRIKES AGAIN, Morrissey's chorus says,
"I've got no right to take my place with the Human race."
ARCH OF TRIUMPH: "A refugee without passport
has lost his membership in the human race."
BIGMOUTH STRIKES
AGAIN: "and I've got no right to take my place with the human race." ...
In the climax to ARCH OF TRIUMPH, a
plumbing wrench is used to smash the villain's head. ...
The villain
is thereby bludgeoned to death in the passenger seat of the car where he had
slept. ...
Likewise, in BIGMOUTH STRIKES AGAIN, Morrissey's verses
say:
"... I'd like to smash every tooth in
your head ...
... by rights you should be bludgeoned in your bed."
In ARCH OF TRIUMPH, a plumbing wrench is used
to smash the villain's head, until he is bludgeoned to death in the
passenger seat where he had just slept.
In BIGMOUTH STRIKES AGAIN,
Morrissey's lyrics say: "I'd like to smash every tooth in your head" and "by
rights you should be bludgeoned in your bed." ...
Why would Morrissey's lyrics to BIGMOUTH
STRIKES AGAIN point to ARCH OF TRIUMPH?
Consider these
correlations between ARCH OF TRIUMPH and the death of Princess Diana:
In ARCH OF TRIUMPH, the goal is to kill a villain
played by actor Charles Laughton. ...

The villain is killed in a car, at night, after being driven through the
streets of Paris. ...
