THE LION IN WINTER
"All of Britain and half of France were his kingdom. But there was one thing Henry II would never control . . . His Family."
Directed by Andrei Konchalovsky
King Henry II keeps his wife Eleanor locked away in the towers because of her frequent attempts to overthrow him. With Eleanor out of the way he can have his dalliances with his young mistress. Needless to say the queen is not pleased, although she still has affection for the king.
