SooKee 1,004 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Watched "The Favourite" last night and wasn't overly impressed with it, and Queen Anne's supposed lesbian tendencies were given too much free rein by the producer, as without this, the movie wouldn't have worked.Main reason I've put this and Mary Queen of Scots (2018) on the Movies Binned list.

JHolmesJr 10,965 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Check out The Drug King Korean version of Scarface I guess. Looks like a true story...the guy who plays the lead in Old Boy is in it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Better it might have been. Accurate it ain't LOL. Actually there were some elements of truth in it SooKee, esp as regards the internal conflicts in the court and family of Mary. A bit like the Elizabeth movies, elements of truth, but not in the correct timelines, but the director/producer tries to cobble something together that is "interesting" and of course makes money!! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

faraday 11,341 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Got so many movies to watch at the moment; easier to just post my d/l list. The first four on there are Japanese, after having watched Shoplifters, which was extremely good, I looked for more that have good ratings. Link to post Share on other sites

I just checked - JHolmesJr said it takes place in Bodrum, and the blurb on TPB says the same. IMDB lists it as 2018 and Bodrum. Probably still being sold to additional territories in 2019 so they upped the date. Edited February 28, 2019 by JimmyJ Link to post Share on other sites
