But you also need to check out Genevieve Bujold as Ann Boleyn and Richard Burton as King Henry VIII in the 1969 movie "Anne of a Thousand Days." You will not be disappointed. Richard Burton as King Henry also is more realistic given that, while Henry was 18 when he married Catharine of Aragon, he was 42 when he married Anne Boleyn.

They'd better start doing something about skinny Henry though. It would be nice to see him put on a little weight and for the makeup artists to age him. I really enjoyed the second season, I thought there were a number of episodes that were superb. The episodes that focused on Sir Thomas More, especially his beheading, and last nights episode were excellent. Looking forward to next season.

A little facial hair and voila, he's an old guy. Once again, loved how they make Cromwell human. Every other portrayal in every movie, Cromwell's just an evil bastard. The scene where he gets on his knees and prays, obviously for forgiveness was great. Everyone-including Cranmer clearly know she's innocent, but Cromwell set her up.

THANK YOU for that, I will! Every other portrayal in every movie, Cromwell's just an evil bastard. But he IS an evil bastard. Maybe he had a conscious, but that doesn't take away his evil bastardness. I hate him.

Mark me down as another hearty endorsement for "Anne of a Thousand Days." Excellent movie and Bujold is wonderful.

(eh, the french... they say "doo-bwah" when we would say "doo-boys". can't speak english, them french...) it pissed her off to no end... Last Edited By: OG sofa 06/03/08 12:25 AM. Edited 1 times.

Oh, don't get me wrong, he's an evil bastard, but James Frain gives him a humanity that's usually lacking from the other actors I've seen portray him. He's three dimensional in his evil bastardness.
