The Other Boleyn Girl
Available on
Historical accuracy aside, British screenwriter Peter Morgan has crafted a deliciously contemporary period piece boasting a beautiful cast and even more ravishing costumes (thanks to British designer Sandy Powell). Elsewhere, a pre-Wolf Hall Mark Rylance proves his acting (and codpiece-wearing) chops, alongside fellow British actors Kristen Scott-Thomas, Benedict Cumberbatch, Eddie Redmayne and Jim Sturgess.
