	Rezension Lola Montez
		Auch mit Worten ist Lola Montez der schlagfertigste Schwan des 19.
		Ludwig von Bayern, Lola Montez zeitlebens in Gedichten, spärlicher werdenden Briefen und der Erinnerung an vergeudete Gulden ergeben, hat davon zu seinem späten Glück nur noch wenig erfahren.
		Revolutionen, das hatte sich schon in den Unruhen von 1848 gezeigt, sind in ihrem Kern meistens ein zu einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt aus dem Ruder laufender Heimholungsversuch.

		In Lola's view, those oafs didn't have a chance of recognizing subtle quality; as far as she was concerned a star was born.

		Letters discovered after Lola's death demonstrated that all this was produced in support of a plot on Lola's part to gain influence and assistance to "capture" California from the USA, cause it to declare independence and be named "Lolaland," with herself as Queen.

	The Maritime Heritage Project: Lola Montez
		But Lola Montez still had great appeal; she retained a surfeit of overwhelming beauty, a cocky spirit and a quick wit, and she was well-known in the world at large for the distinguished male scalps she had collected, and for her scandalous antics all across Europe.
		In the character of Yelva, Madame Lola's powers of pantomime were exhibited, and she portrayed the sufferings of the orphan with a great deal of truthfulness and effect, though we could see but little merit in the piece apart from the impassioned representation of the deserted orphan.
		Lola is sure to have fine success with us -- this is a fixed tact; and to say that is to say that she has merit of a high order, for nothing less could succeed with a people so practical and exacting as ours.

		She was disappointed to see that the audience was not sophisticated enough to appreciate the modern elements of her performance, which consisted of the discovery while dancing of a large, furry spider crawling on her clothes, and her frantic attempts to remove it - ultimately losing many garments in the process.
		It wasn't long before Lola learned who was behind the changing attitudes of her public, and the next time booing occurred, she stopped the show and explained to the crowd exactly what was happening.
		Lola's decision to take the stage, and to force the world to accept her on her own terms, was evidence of her bravery and the purity of her soul.

		Montez and her third husband, newspaperman Patrick Hull, purchased the cottage as a "refuge from the hostile outside world," but their life here was anything but serene.

		While not the dour, earnest, or sharpish stereotype of the early feminist, nonetheless she pioneered the right of a woman to be heard and her power--in and out of the boudoir being formidable--to be taken seriously by those in quite influential positions of celebrity and/or acclaim themselves.
		Lola early perfected her ability to live by her quick study of her suitors, her rivals, and their relative positions vis-a-vis her own advantage.
		For those in her potential audience today less hungry for today's spotlights, Lola's story, naturally, is also a cautionary tale in the personal and financial costs of so much controversy and backstabbing and maneuvering, in a time when she, as a lone woman, dared to take on the establishment with wit, intelligence, and shrewdness.
