A Royal Affair
« on: September 15, 2015, 01:29:10 AM »
I will leave this here in the hopes it sparks someone's interest. I can only say it is a personal favourite and is solidly fantastic. You could call it a period drama  love story (oh hi there Sandy) or historical fiction with a romantic side or any combination of those words. There is plenty of Enlightenment porn for the brainies among you and the performances are very good - shout-out to Mads Mikkelsen.

Someday soon I hope Sandy!

It would be on the edge of my Top 100, so I'll probably include it to prompt you when my turn rolls around.

Some of the best characters, some of the best performances you'll see.
Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others.

Haha! You'd do that for me? Then I'll see what I can do, to get a copy when it's your month. :)

Cannot wait to read your review Sandy. Good thing chardy's here to recommend it before my month. She has such good taste in movies  ;).

Lest you think it was all chardy's doing, you guys did the ole' one-two punch! I'm dazed and ready to look for the movie. :)

Oh yeah, chardy is a guy. He must really like that picture of Natalie Portman. Who wouldn't? :)

I am very happy to let Natalie speak for me.

I am now very confused but it is worth it to be able to look at that Natalie Portman picture.

Lying's the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off - but it's better if you do.
