King Charles: The Boy Who Walked Alone

This is an utterly unique take on the royals - we are afforded an unprecedented image of Charles constructed from the confessions and criticisms of those closest to him - his classmates, girlfriends, confidantes - where previous media has been based simply on the theories of outsiders who knew none of the inner workings of the palace. This film takes a refreshingly equivocal, balanced view of Charles; it's concerned with rooting out hidden details - sometimes sordid, sometimes sympathetic - in the king's early life rather than praising or criticizing the monarchy as a concept. I'm against the monarchy morally and politically, but it's one to watch whatever your view - an outstanding piece of television journalism.

The idea of royalty in this day and age is pure filth. To say that anyone is in any way better than anyone else simply by the accident of their birth goes against every idea of equality. All men are created equal (and by "men" we mean Homo sapiens). Period. I can't believe that people are expected to take this half-wit seriously simply because he fell out of a womb that other people thought of as superior. How much longer are we going to continue with this medieval rubbish? The guy is a billionaire yet he's asking Brits to volunteer service to help others. Why doesn't he donate a few hundred million to help the poor?

Let's encourage societies to promote people on merit and not by the accident of birth.

"The Boy Who Walked Alone" takes a somber look into the life of Charles, the King of the United Kingdom, but unfortunately falls short of captivating its audience. While the film attempts to shed light on the complexities of his royal duties and personal struggles, it fails to engage viewers and lacks the necessary depth to make a lasting impression.

The movie follows Charles as he ascends the throne, burdened with the weight of tradition and public expectation. The director's intention to humanize the royal figure is evident, but the execution feels lackluster and fails to leave a significant impact.

One of the film's major shortcomings is its slow pacing. While a measured pace can create a sense of gravitas, "The Boy Who Walked Alone" often crosses the line into monotony. Lengthy scenes that delve into the mundane aspects of Charles' daily life, such as meetings and formal ceremonies, tend to drag on without offering substantial character development or narrative progression.

Is this what the world needs now, a propaganda piece about an elitist WEF sellout? A "man" who condemns those who drive or fly, yet he has no problem jetting all over the world wherever he wishes to go. This show was nothing more than bloated journalism, made to show him in the best possible light. Yet we know he is anything but what they show us, even possibly, and most probably the cause of Diana's death. There is nothing to be learned of value from this TV show, simple regurgitation of stuff we have all heard before, nothing new, nothing of any real value to our lives. It is made to show him in a sympathetic light, yet how do you sympathize with someone who believes he is above everyone else, and that the simple "peasants" need to do as they are told.

WOW.

When I woke up this morning, I thought it would be a regular day.

But I could not have guessed (not even in my wildest dreams) how much my day would change.

When I clicked play and the film started playing, I knew from that moment that it would go down in history.

I cannot express how much I love it. And the filmmaker has obviously reached new heights of genius.

It is so hard these days to find a film that doesn't ramble on for over two hours. But this, may I add, provides the whole story in under two MINUTES!

That is a captivating story if ever I've seen one.

I'm a 72-year-old woman, but never in my old age have I watched a film which reminds me so much what it feels like to be young again.

My only critique is that I wasn't completely sure who the film was about so, on the off chance that the filmmaker reads this, I would have liked a bit more context about the identity of the main character.
