History-based TV shows are often judged based on their accuracy, and the best shows can stay faithful to the truth without dipping in quality. Making a TV show about real history requires a trade-off, because writers are forced to fill in certain gaps. Also, it's often better to cut certain events or subtly change characters to enhance the drama for the format of TV. However, some exceptional shows highlight the fact that historical accuracy doesn't have to come at the cost of quality.
There has been a recent trend of historical TV shows which don't claim to be accurate, like Bridgerton and The Great. These shows claim that all scripted TV is a fantasy, and that any attempt to represent eras from centuries ago must resort to guess work. While this is true, there's still a big audience for shows which can portray history as accurately as possible, according to...

Acclaimed Netflix drama The Crown wrapped up its sixth and final season last year, with rumors circulating about potential sequels and spin-offs. Producer Andy Harries recently opened up about the idea of more drama surrounding the royals, calling the possibilities "endless".
The Crown has not only been a huge ratings winner for Netflix, but has claimed a host of awards to boot. Since the culmination of the series, there have been a number of rumors about how the franchise could return with a new Royal as its focus. According to Deadline, Harries, the executive producer and founder of Left Bank Pictures who produced the show, spoke about the opportunities available for future royal content. He adds that it's a good thing their deal with Netflix was in the early stages of the service, because that allows them room to create more from The Crown.

There are a host of big-name players in this year’s Best Live Action Short Film Oscar race with Wes Anderson‘s “The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar,” Pedro Almódovar‘s “Strange Way of Life,” and the John Travolta-produced “The Shepherd” all in the mix. But Tom Stuart‘s quirky British short “Good Boy” has a big name (and a big performance) of its own: Ben Whishaw.
The short follows Whishaw as a down-on-his-luck man who tries to turn his life around with the help of his anarchic mum (Marion Bailey) but figures from his past and a bygone tragedy threaten to consume and derail him. The short film blends multiple genres including comedy, drama, and tragedy and it is Whishaw’s powerhouse performance that is propelling this little indie film that could into a race full of the big boys.
Indeed, Whishaw’s performance is the film’s Mvp.

Emma Thompson has boarded Ben Whishaw short film “Good Boy” as an executive producer.
The grief-inspired short was written and directed by Tom Stuart. It tells the story of a young man called Danny (played by Whishaw) who grows increasingly desperate as he finds himself ferrying around his mother and a dead pigeon in the back of his Vw van after a heist goes wrong.
“The Crown” star Marion Bailey plays Danny’s mother.
“Danny’s attempt to rob a bank with his overbearing mum is scuppered by the appearance of their family doctor,” reads the logline. “With his mum in the back of his van, and a dead pigeon on the passenger seat, Danny has a growing sense of desperation. But as more and more figures arrive to disrupt his day, we begin to sense that everything is not as it seems…”

Marion Bailey and Ben Whishaw in Good Boy. Tom Stuart: 'I'd say one thing to Ben or Marion and they'd run with it. I'll probably never have it that good again, because they're such extraordinary actors' Photo: 130 Elektra Films Tom Stuart’s Oscar-qualifying short Good Boy is a tragicomic tale of a man coming to terms with what life has thrown at him. It stars Ben Whishaw as Danny, who starts his day out in his campervan with plans to rob a bank, at least before his mum (Marion Bailey) intervenes from the back seat. What follows is an increasingly surreal tale that considers love, loss and the potential for moving on.
Stuart, who is better known as an actor in the likes of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, says the film presented an opportunity to feel less “boxed in” as an actor.

Love, loss and laughter come together in Tom Stuart's Good Boy, an Oscar-qualifying short that is helped enormously by the presence of Ben Whishaw and Marion Bailey (perhaps best known these days for playing the Queen Mum in the Crown).
Whishaw stars as Danny, a nervous sort who is having a very bad day when we meet him, not least because he's in the early stages of what he hopes will be a bank heist. It turns out that the Vw camper van he's in, isn't just packed with ephemera but also has his mum (Bailey) in the back, a relationship that will bend and flex throughout the course of the film.
Stuart's film feels lived in, not just in terms of the look, although the production design from Paul Zabih and the slightly retro costuming from Gabriela Yiaxis are both excellent, particularly when it comes to the contents of the van,...

A jaunty little crime spree might not be the most conventional mother-son activity but it does make for a glorious opening to writer/director Tom Stuart’s directorial debut short Good Boy. It’s a touching examination of life, love and loss, filmed around the glorious Somerset farms of Glastonbury and featuring a vintage Vw van meandering through country lanes that plays host to an array of colourful characters. Stuart has given the film a vintage lens which speaks fittingly to the surreal emotional exploration of Danny, played by Ben Whishaw, as he goes about his bizarre day kept company by his doting if somewhat overbearing mother, played by Marion Bailey. Good Boy proffers a magically tinged reflection on grief which feels both true and comforting for those of us who can relate to the stabbing reality of loss. As the BAFTA and Oscar qualified short continues to delight on its festival circuit journey,...

Actress Elizabeth Debicki, who plays Princess Diana in The Crown, felt uncomfortable and disgusted by the behavior of fake paparazzi during filming. Debicki found it difficult to accurately portray Princess Diana due to negative and incorrect narratives created by the press and tabloids. The first four episodes of The Crown season six premiere on November 16 on Netflix.
Actress Elizabeth Debicki, who plays Princess Diana in seasons five and six of the Netflix Emmy-winning historical drama series The Crown, revealed in an interview earlier this year before the SAG-AFTRA strikes, that she felt uncomfortable and disgusted with the behavior of the fake paparazzi (via Variety). Created by Peter Morgan, the hit series encapsulates the multi-generational ups and downs of the British Royal family and has won 21 Emmy Awards so far.

The Netflix limited series "All the Light We Cannot See" is based on the war novel by Anthony Doerr and was filmed in various locations in Europe. One of the most important filming locations is Saint-Malo, France, which plays a significant role in the story and captures the essence of the war. Budapest, Hungary, was used as a replacement for Paris in the show, possibly due to cost or its ability to convey the 1940s European setting. Villefranche-de-Rouergue, France, was also used for exterior shots of Saint-Malo.
The Netflix limited series All the Light We Cannot See tells the story of two teenagers living through World War II in Europe, and the show was filmed in numerous locations on the continent.

Were one to go into “All the Light We Cannot See” totally cold — drawn to the four-part limited series, say, purely by its placement atop Netflix’s home page — it would be impossible to discern that it was based on a Pulitzer Prize-winning novel celebrated for its lyricism and profundity.
The dialogue here is pedestrian. The lead character, blind French teenager Marie-Laure LeBlanc (screen newcomer Aria Mia Loberti), escapes the German invasion of Paris in World War II with her father, Daniel (Mark Ruffalo). They seek refuge in the French port city of Saint-Malo. Yet throughout the journey, and the limited series, our Gallic heroine and Papa LeBlanc speak English with British accents.
The series’ wartime visuals are dark and obviously CG-enhanced. More practical effects include perfectly contained fires placed in strategic spots to indicate — along with James Newton Howard’s overwrought score — that a neighborhood has been bombed.

Plot: The story of Marie-Laure, a blind French girl and her father, Daniel LeBlanc, who flee German-occupied Paris with a legendary diamond to keep it from falling into the hands of the Nazis. Relentlessly pursued by a cruel Gestapo officer who seeks to possess the stone for his own selfish means, Marie-Laure and Daniel soon find refuge in St. Malo, where they take up residence with a reclusive uncle who transmits clandestine radio broadcasts as part of the resistance. Yet here in this once-idyllic seaside city, Marie-Laure’s path also collides inexorably with the unlikeliest of kindred spirits: Werner, a brilliant teenager enlisted by Hitler’s regime to track down illegal broadcasts, who instead shares a secret connection to Marie-Laure as well as her faith in humanity and the possibility of hope.

Ben Whishaw could propel a charming, British short film to Oscars glory with his star turn in Tom Stuart’s “Good Boy.” The film follows Whishaw — best known for his BAFTA-winning performance in “This is Going to Hurt,” his Emmy-winning turn in “A Very English Scandal,” and his role as Q in multiple James Bond movies — as down-on-his-luck Danny.
Danny attempts to rob a bank with the help of his chaotic mum, played by SAG-winning actress Marion Bailey, but he runs into trouble when memories of a tragic past begin to literally haunt him. As he tries to escape this past, a hopeful future arrives in the form of a potential suitor in a shop.

A Tricky Patient Causes a Therapist to Face His Own Issues in Ron Eyal’s Drama Short ‘The Therapist’
After making the Slamdance award-winning feature Stranger Things, Director Ron Eyal has returned to the short film format for his follow-up in the form of reflective drama The Therapist.
