What an unexpected delight to see you react to this film—one of my all-time favorites. Hepburn’s performance is one of the greatest ever imo—so astonishing. So glad you liked it!

Yes the characters are all real people, and some of the plot points like the relations with France and Eleanor being in jail are historical events, but the play was fiction. I do consider this a Christmas movie that’s why you are watching it in December. This movie Is the middle movie in an unofficial trilogy with Peter O’Toole previously playing a younger Henry in a movie by a different writer and the writer of this movie making his own version of Robin Hood which is what Richard and John are most famous from. There are different actors playing the roles in that one. This writer’s other most critically acclaimed movie was Natasha and Alexander about the Russian ruling family. Katherine Hepburn made this right after Guess Who’s Coming and the death of the love of her life so the closing monologue about losing love probably really hit home. She is my favorite classic actress her career went from her 20s to her 90s. Peter O’Toole also has done many critically acclaimed movies.
