Re: Annicita,
The whole issue disappears if they'd present it as the fiction it is. Change names, as well as facts. They didn't even give her auburn hair... the actress is a brunette!

Re: Kabu,
It's meant to be a biography of Mary Queen of Scots. And it would be great if it really did reveal more of who she was and why her life followed the path it did. But instead, it creates the idea that we are gaining understanding, when we are being led down an entirely other path.
