THE TUDORS

 The Tudors is a series about Henry VIII.

During the lesson, we saw two episodes of the series. The principal actors we saw are Jonathan Rhys-Meyers (Henry VIII) and Natalie Dormer (Anne Boleyn).

The first one deals with the meeting between Henry VIII and François I. We saw have seen the wish of Henry VIII to be the greatest king in the World. This episode also tells the meeting of Henry VIII with Anne Boleyn. The king had fallen in love since he saw her.

The second episode dose deals with the end of Anne Boleyn who lost the king's love because she can't offer him a boy. At the end, she had a miscarriage. The child was a boy but he was awful. So she was accused of being  unfaithful to her husband, Henry VIII. The king decided to behead her but he had the kindness to get in the Calais executioner who was the one who beheaded with a sword.

For our own part, we are not fond of the Tudors, even if we are very interested in Henry VIII‘s life. We think the story is too long and wastes time on details which are not so important. We saw before the film: "Two sisters for a king" which deals with the same story and we think the film is better than the series. But we don't think it was due to the badness of the Tudors series but it is simply the difference between a series and a film. For those who loved the Tudors series, we advise you to see this film and to give us your view point ...
