Just thought I'd mention this film. In some ways I find the romance in this film superior to almost all others.
My ideal romance involves two people in love who actually help their lovers be greater than they could be individually.
In this respect this fictionalized account meets that criteria perfectly. I understand that the two people on which it was based were very much less romantic in real life.
I saw this movie a long time ago. It has Helena Bonham Carter right? I liked her in Room with a View so I ended up watching a lot of her movies. I think I found it very sad since she was ordered to the throne and could not refuse.
