Even for not-very-familiar-with-British-history beings, this movie is excellent! I liked Rufus Sewell very very much as Charles II. He was really very much "in" the historical person. Even in case you are not familiar with the time of Charles II, you get very interested to read more about it.
I would liked this film to show some more persons and European "connections" from this time, appearing in the movie. Just to get a closer view of the time. But WOW this movie was excellent. I wish there were movies like this one in Germany.
And I very much liked that all actors were able to speak very clear. I understood everything, no subtitles needed!!! Henry VIII was not talking that clear and understandable. The Specials on DVD2 could have been "more"!!!!
