...house of Tudor stretched from 1485, with the coronation of King Henry VII, to 1603, the end of the reign of Elizabeth I, Henry VIII's daughter with Anne Boleyn. It was an era of religious turmoil, fomented by coquettish Lady Anne Boleyn lobbying for her King to annul his marriage to his first wife, Catherine. As Henry teetered between Catherine's Catholicism and Anne's Protestantism, the faith of a nation depended on a monarch's lust.

...English, we needed the subtitles.) Paul Groves gets all he can out of Gao Jianli, but the role as written here hasn't nearly the force of will, the sacred venom, that Ge You embodied in the film.

Now, ankle-bracelet free, she's launched a new daytime show, Martha, and a new Martha Stewart: vulnerable, self-deprecating, coquettish and fun. She jokes about prison! She wears a tiara! Publicizing her new edition of The Apprentice, the media mogul and notoriously demanding boss now swears to anyone with a microphone that she hates firing people. One excruciating morning, she even rapped--rapped!--with hip-hop star Diddy, who seemed...
