Movie Review: Anne of the Thousand Days

Last night I watched a movie from 1969, Anne of the Thousand Days. I believe it was recommended to me by my friend, Sherry, over at Frugal Domestic Goddess.

At any rate, it is a fantastic movie and if you love historical movies, you will surely enjoy this. The costumes are fantastic. Richard Burton and Geneviève Bujold do a wonderful portrayl of King Henry and Anne Boleyn. There are other great actorsand actresses in this movie. Irene Papas, Anthony Quayle, and John Colicos to name a few.

I know very little about this period in history, but as I made connections of what I was seeing with what I knew, I was completely drawn into the tale. I couldn't believe what King Henry had done due to the desire of a woman and what he resorted to after that desire ran out.

I give this movie 5 stars out of 5!

Here is the trailer from the movie that I found on You Tube. This movie was rated PG on my Netflix movie folder. On this trialer, it is said to be rated M for Mature. There is a scene in this trailer that is probably one of the more intense moments and the worst language.
