About
If you want glamorous, style-forward court life with a more human, character-focused mood, you may enjoy this; Not for you if you want a strictly historically accurate, fully serious period biopic like The Queen or Victoria & Abdul.
Pros: gorgeous sets and costumes; lush, glamorous atmosphere; humanizing character view | Cons: jarring modern soundtrack; slow, light dramatic tone; historical accuracy complaints
