THE QUEEN IS DEAD - Song 6: BIGMOUTH STRIKES AGAIN


Diana was England's Princess of Wales. ...

England's first-ever Princess of Wales was Joan of Kent. ...

On THE QUEEN IS DEAD album, the only death mentioned is Joan of Arc. ...


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





Lady Diana was Princess of Wales.  England's 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. ... 




This song referring to the death of Joan of Arc was released as a single. ...

The cover of the single is a photo of actor James Dean, who died in a car crash. ...

The cover photo of James Dean was taken in 1948. ...


"Cover Star: James Dean photographed in April 1948 with a wooden Kodak box camera by Nelva Jean Thomas."
- PEEPHOLISM: INTO THE ART OF MORRISSEY.  By Jo Slee.  Published 1994.


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. ...

Charles Laughton was born July 1. ...

Princess Diana was born July 1. ...
        
The villain is killed in a car, at night, after being driven through the streets of Paris. ...

Diana will be killed in a car, at night, after being driven through the streets of Paris. ...

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




In ARCH OF TRIUMPH, a calendar is used to mark the days until the villain be killed. ...

The last date circled on the French-language calendar is August 30. ...

Princess Diana suffered her fatal car crash on the night of August 30. ...

The same calendar has a diagonal line connecting the circled numbers 6 and 29. ...

Actress Jayne Mansfield suffered her fatal car crash on June 29 which is 6/29. ...

In 1997, Princess Diana was killed in her mid-30's (36) in a car crash along with her boyfriend and their temporary driver for the night. ...

Those were the only two car crashes ever in which the only people killed were a world-famous woman, her boyfriend and their driver.
