Katherine Parr, the sixth wife of King Henry VIII, is named regent while the tyrant battles abroad. When the king returns, increasingly ill and paranoid, Katherine finds herself fighting for her own survival.

Period drama that was not really noteworthy any way. Jude Law was almost unrecognizable and is certainly going for a big performance as Henry VIII, but I didn’t think it always worked. Alicia Vikander was good, though. Would love to see her in higher profile projects again. It’s a passable drama but I wouldn’t really recommend it.
