Summary: Scottish "means to an end" does not disappoint
Comment: I enjoyed this movie quite a bit more than I was prepared to. In this day and age, when watching a dated film - you generally prepare yourself for dated costume, overdramatic acting, and slightly cheesy portrayls of characters. Not so in any way, with this movie!
With the vivd storyline of Mary's life to be told - the enjoyable main purpose of the film is to show A)Mary's love life affecting her reign and B)Her power struggle with Elizabeth. Both Vanessa Redgrave and Glenda Jackson are dynamite in these roles, and their few scenes together (where they go head to head) are some of my favorites in the film!
The costume and scenery was appropriate and lavish for each character/location. All the acting was believably done (....well, maybe not for a young Timothy Dalton who is crazed and blonde!).
Watch if for the history, costumes, or great story.....but definitely watch it.

Summary: Grateful to be a commoner
Comment: Having recently returned from London I wanted to better understand some of English history. These movies are well done. I appreciate they are paired together like prequel and sequel. There is enough treachery in every day life without compounding it to the millionth degree by being born into a royal family.

Summary: A movie classic of literary briliance
Comment: "Anne of the Thousand Days" is one of Hollywood's finest. Richard Burton is superb as Henry VIII. The movie is thought provoking and well acted. The final scene of Elizabeth headed down the garden lane with great determination is an historical statement one does not easdily forget.

Summary: great period pieces
Comment: If you like period pieces, you are going to love these two movies. I had not seen these movies before and I very much enjoyed them. Both are beautifully done with very good acting.
