How does it compare to the other Other Boleyn Girl movie?


Does anyone know how this one compares to the other Other Boleyn Girl made in 2003?

this one is uh, kinda overacted, if sumptuously filmed

The earlier version is definitely more low-key, which will probably bother some people. But I honestly preferred that version to this one. It had better editing, better acting, and--while it was just as historically inaccurate--it felt somehow less "offensive," maybe because it didn't go out of its way to shock and because the relationship between Anne and Mary was more nuanced.


You're a sexual Disneyland.

But the actresses were far too old for their roles.
