I’m not a royalist in the least — the opposite really — but this is a mesmerizing probe of underbelly of the monarchy. It’s the war between duty and humanity, stricture and sentiment; the grotesque insensitivity and suffering inflicted by that war, as well as the courage and tenacity it inspires. How regal protocol both imprisons and strengthens a struggling, utterly unprepared young monarch. Absolutely brilliant.
