How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A sprawling historical epic that trades romantic grandeur for the messy, bloody reality of medieval kingship and war. It's an unflinching portrait of a reluctant ruler learning that power demands sacrifice and moral compromise.
