I so agree with you, Ciel! I love historical drama. I once read that Henry VIII liked his women thin (maybe in his younger days) but then I read a contradictory comment that he is supposed to have made about a "stout woman" being what he needed. Of course, that was after Anne Bolyn. Regardless, a modicum of accuracy could be achieved with little effort. And Hepburn has the spirit of Eleanor to me. Great post. Thank you.

I always grab for a story of archeology or History.
I sometimes feel nearly heart broken when they take human life back further and further with finds of human bone or sub human bone. I am going to die before we have found out more, for there is always more.
And yes, Henry V111 has to be fat and he has to have nasty little eyes and spoiled, pouty lips.
