How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
Six tightly wound dramatic portraits of women caught in the machinery of royal ambition and male desire. Each episode is its own complete tragedy, charting the rise and fall, seduction and disposal, of Henry's wives with the precision of a clockmaker and the inevitability of fate.
