It's Tudors I'm talking about . lol . and it was Henry VIII and yes he was considered a merciless tyrant in his later years.
Rosamund pike and we just watched that British one you referring to. "What we did on our holliday" which for a British film was pretty good and funny. Also there was another one called "Hector in search of happiness" that one was great comedy and her phsyco roll did come out a little in that. Both worth watching though!
Yes, and it started with his father, didn't it? And, wasn't his father the one who dethroned Richard III? Hank the Younger learned some of his nefarious ways from his old man.
As to that i dont know.i only know what I saw in TUDORS . lol
Henry the VIII also found the best way to get a new wife was not through mediated divorce but simply cut his current wife's head off and then re-marry....UK divorce attorneys/Bariristers starved during his reign and I believe he even mooned the Roman Catholic Pope then cause he would not grant a divorce while Henry toured Romeo and then after mooning the Pope over divorce opinion, Henry VIII went home kicked out all the Catholic priests, or helped them set fire to themselves in the UK except Ireland, and then appointed a English Pope who stated 'sure you can get a divorce, but it wouldn't be easier to just cut off their heads Henry and then remaryy?" and then the English Pope okayed mooning in Church if it is done by royals......in South Korea a religion was founded on the same principles and they are called "Moonie's".......
I thought visually the photography, cinema graphics and SFX was stunning.... good acting, lousy script... I was really turned off by the melodrama in the script/story between father and daughter and some other aspects I felt or found to be soupy soapy rot.....and then the science gets blown to hell in the end ... it disappointed me the script wise the same way "Prometheus" did with the dumbest bunch of jackasses who were supposedly the world's best erudite scientists ever assembled that I was to buy into for a story line....
I just bought for three bucks all 13 episodes of "The Tic" that were made 15 years ago starring Elaine's boyfriend from Seinfeld as the Tic and that was better SC-FI story lines than "Prometheus" and can you believe Ridley Scott is now shooting "Prometheus II"........a sequel to make you actually want to just set yourself on fire this time around if you are lured to sit through it probably...spontaneous combustion in theaters everywhere...
That was excellent!!! Smart sci-fi movie Moon .... really liked that and I am a Sam Rockwell fan too.....really disapopointed with Interstellar however, visually stunning and good acting but just way to much melodrama family like angst and other script aspects that just turned me off to the film....glad I did not buy Interstellar before watching it....
