First season is great! Great love scenes. Dreamy characters. The story isn't brilliant but it's nice enough. All in all it's well worth watching!
Second season is disappointing. And it's not just because there's less sex in it. Losing the sex isn't a disaster, no it can even make it better. But in this case it doesn't. It only makes the bad script more visible. Beth becomes more human and the Tonya and Jenny characters become even likable. But this does not make the script better. Story lines pop up out of nowhere and other story lines are not finished. The L word started out as a good series but the second season isn't very good. Hope the third season is going to make up for it.

This is the best film about Napoleon I've ever seen! This is even the best than every remake abel gance himself made later. Excellent! Voted 10! This I wrote for the 1927 version by Abel Gance. I wish he directed this epic. What a disappointment this mini series was. This was the dream of Abel Gance to make a series like this. I wish he directed this. He would've made a marvelous epic. Not a boring one like this. voted 5.
I have mixed feelings about this film. I appreciated the use of color, it represents the harshness of the time. It's a nice change to see a period piece that's not glamorous. I can imagine it's tempting to make the good looking cast even better looking. The confessions in the camera I didn't understand. I do understand it was an
attempt to make it more intimate. But I don't think it workout that well here. I consider it to modern. It works in comedy like 'the private life of Samuel Pepys'. There it was brilliant. Maybe they could've used a confession setting for these scene's instead of putting them into a room speaking to the camera. And used
more close-ups instead of medium shots. That would make it more intimate and
dramatic.
The acting is superb! I enjoyed to see Jodhi May paying a wicked woman for a
change. She portrayed Anne Boleyn very good Her sick and cruel pleasure to
torture her family by for example trying to marry of her sister to a fat ugly man. Her frightening ambition and abuse of power is portrayed brilliantly.
The actor who played Henry and the actress who played Mary were also
brilliant. The rest of the cast were very complementary to the leading ladies and man.
Very good.
This is not a story about one person. It's about relations between people. This movie explains why Mary survived.
This is really a film worth wile seeing. But don't expect to see a conventional historical epic.
