How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A gleefully Machiavellian power play between a cunning Prime Minister and an idealistic new king, where every move masks a deeper conspiracy. Watching it is like being let in on a conspiracy, thrilling and darkly funny in equal measure.
