Hermes - this movie offers a good "alternate" view of her life taking into account the prevailing superstitions, religious/political climate at the time. Not as ghastly or Gothic as I thought it would be. She is truly fantastic in it.
Ok, must put this on my list. (And Pushing Daisies too. Never saw that though I heard it was good.) Love what you show us in the world of Medievalism! Kirsten
Certainly the costumes look good and Anna is a good actress. I remember seeing her early days in Brookside and thougt she would go far.

ReplyDeleteOooh, I need to see this. I love Anna Friel, she is so pretty. I loved her so much in "Pushing Daisies." How I miss that show...sigh.
ReplyDeleteJno - I really appreciate her talents too. Did you see her in Timeline with Gerard Butler? If not, highly recommend that one as well.
ReplyDeleteSuch gorgeous costumes! I must see this sometime.
ReplyDeleteMargaret - Very lush and dreamy, filmed in the Czech Republic!
ReplyDeleteThis is to go on my must see list too! thank you x
ReplyDeleteRuthie - I've been waiting to see this for over a year and exceeded my expectations. Hans is lovely as ever.

ReplyDeleteRobin - indeed it was!! And a long movie too - that may explain why it didn't make the theatres.
ReplyDeleteKirsten - Anna is a delight to watch! Hope you enjoy both the show and this movie.
