Great subject, great actors

Originally, a good movie had all the elements, good subject matter, good director, and good actors, but it turned out to be out of tune.

Key moments in history, legendary figures in history, even if they are not great, there is always a lot of content to be excavated. Leaving the Pope, dethroning the queen, sisters becoming rivals, incest, conspiracy, etc., all these together have become a pot of common taste.

Since it is mainly a girl from the Boleyn family, the king can only show ruthlessness or add some courage to contend with the Pope, but it is not convincing enough in the movie.

There were too many royal women beheaded in the Tudor era, and there is still a lot to write about. It's a pity that the movie was made like this.
