Prince Harry/A Hans Zimmer Score

I applaud Harry for shining a light on the dark dynamics that contribute to generational trauma in so many families. His savvy refusal to accept the assumptions of the loaded question fired at him by the press is impressive and inspiring to watch. The amount of press and pundits shaming him for whistleblowing just shows how dysfunctional our default cultural ideas are about family dynamics. Physical assault is a crime, whether done within a family or not. Good for Harry for speaking up and speaking out. I think this interview is very brave and will help many others to speak out about their experiences of bullying and abuse within their own families. Thank you, Harry. You are a prince in name and in deed.

Being of Jewish eastern European descent, British royalty never held personal meaning or interest for us. But this segment was fascinating. Take the most intense drama in your own family. Then imagine it magnified a thousand fold, under the unrelenting scrutiny by the unscrupled British tabloids. Being worshipped & vilified by hundreds of millions. No wonder most of the royal family have a very different perspective on life from the rest of us.

Harry on the other hand was somewhat on the edge of this life, not being first in line. A 'spare' as they put it. This interview was a very brief, but eye-opening look into his life on that edge of royalty, and eventual departure from it. If left me torn between the desire to see him reconciled with his family & the belief he is a better person without them. Will definitely be reading his book.

As always, Anderson did a great job. One key moment was when Harry vocally took exception to a harmless question, due to how it was worded. Anderson, without missing a beat, simply asked a different question, getting at the same issue. His response to Harry's discomfort showed empathy, quick thinking, and he left his own ego at the door. It highlights why he's so great at his craft.
