Have you seen my show /tv/? Surely you've both seen and enjoyed it, haven't you?
>>70609818
>it's too dark!
Is this getting a second season or did Brits bitching about the natural lighting ruin the chances?
>>70609818
yeah Mark, I have.
Loved it 2bh
Why is the Tudor era so fucking compelling? I can't get enough of it.
Mark Ryclance looks like he's smelt something awful and is really disappointed about it.
>>70609818
I downloaded it because Mark Rylance, but I haven't watched it yet.
Would it help?
>>70609818
what is this?
>>70609984
Wolf Hall
>>70609818
10/10 show. I'm glad they didn't cast any niggers to play British historical figures.
>>70610011
why would they?
The people who know what theyre doing hire actors who clearly understand what they're a part of.
whereas at the depths of doctor who its guess the colour
>>70609927
>he actually liked the tudors
>>70610002
Thanks I will DL and have a look
>>70609818
I did sir
I how close was it to the real life events?
and why do we never see a war movie from that time period?
>>70610085
Have you seen The Hollow Crown?
>>70610248
I cannot stand Cumberbatch so not yet
>>70610226
as close as it can be. Some relationships are assumed like whether King Henry felt so closed to Cromwell or not, and whether Anne actually shagged her brother; but she was killed for sleeping with other men
Mary best girl
It had some great music
whats the name of the main theme?
another favorite part

Amazing. Rylance is literally Godfather II Pacino tier acting wise. Best actor alive rn?
>>70610878
Possibly, yes. Anyone seen Bridge of Spies? I'm somewhat interested because of him.
>>70611515
It's utterly forgettable and Rylance is barely in it.

>>70609818
one of the best TV experiences I've had
>based Theoden getting to shittalk everyone
>>70610878
>>70611515
he doesn't get nearly as much to do. I think he won the oscar because the Academy all watched Wolf Hall.
>>70609818
Yes Mark, and might i add that it was fully sick
I would like some more adventures of Thomas Cromwell
>>70613036
>>70609902
the first season is based on two novels, the third of which is still being written.
while it would obviously be wonderful to have a second season with Rylance as good as the first, the first season has a pretty complete arc so it's not really a Game of Thrones situation.
this series actually made me go to the Frick gto see the Holbein paintings of more and cromwell. they are across from each other.
>>70611515
He's brilliant, but doesn't have loads of screen time. Movie is standard Spielberg
>Cromwell was the foreward thinking progressive
>Thomas Moore was somehow an evil sexist even though he insisted that his daughter be educated
>>70613728
well considering Wolf Hall is shown from the point of view of Cromwell, I wouldn't complain that More is shown in a bad light because Im not an idiot
>>70613728
It's so weird to see a revisionist Henry8 story that doesn't treat Moore like a Saint.
Especially when Cromwell is usually universally depicted as a scummy vile amoral douchebag.
>>70613800
>the only way to show things from the perspective of one character is to potray all other characters as worse then they actually were.
>>70613728
Papist pls, go molest a boy or something
>>70613891
>>70613856
Im not saying its the only way, you cretin. Im saying why complain about it
put your head up your arse
>>70613907
But that's ones we know about...
>>70613855
Hillary Mantel is a typical Guardian-reading liberal who thinks that any principled religious objections to left-wing governments must be evil.
>>70613932
Now you're just being paranoid.
Is the big bad Thomas Cranmer in this?
>>70609818
I seen it m8, you should cheer up
>>70613932
>But that's ones we know about
oh deary me, forming beliefs on the basis of what we know, instead of media bogeymen, how regressive and medieval!
Unless there is evidence that Catholic abuse goes underreported by several orders of magnitude more than public school abuse,
>>70613907
is a valid point.
>>70614429
The mass cover up by the Catholic Church is widely known about, the fact that the Pope addressed this as little as a few days ago proves it's still a huge issue with much higher numbers than reported
