What is the best film or TV portrayal of Henry VIII, King of England?

He got Henrys baby-like tantrum personality right except Henry was no sexy ladies man.
>>880234
He was considered a sexy ladies man in his youth. Then he had that accident that fucked up his leg and started getting fatter and crazier and having people murdered.
Wolf Hall

In his youth he was quite the ladies man.
The six wives of Henry viii by BBC is kinda old, but pretty good. They go into some details that are lesser known. They do a sequel called Elizabeth R which was a lot better imo
>>880224
the one that is actually historically accurate and show him as an obese degenerate instead of a babyface model with doubtfull sexuality, which doesn't exist.

I liked Tudors

Nails the bipolar insanity and arbitrariness. And a great actor besides.

Also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PgJDtf7iops, even better.

They should hire the guy who played Robert Baratheon for that role.
Are there any Catherine of Aragons who aren't, because for some reason filmmakers think we can't possibly see her as Spanish otherwise, portrayed with super dark hair and eyes? She was a fair ginger.

Or I should say, the 1970 version. The 1972 version, with the same Henry, is different. I prefer Catherine Howard in that one.

There is only one Henry the 8th, and that is him portrayed by Charles Laughton
