    Well worth a watch, but look up the real story

    As many have noticed, this story takes the "inspired by true events" a bit too far on occasions. But still I recommend watching it as it gives another side of the grim events more than 70 years ago. I find the acting credible and good but as said.. the historical correctness is highly questionable.

    Thorougly enjoyable

    Atlantic Crossing is not a documentary and should not be viewed as such. Nevertheless I was drawn into the drama of the exiled Norwegian Crown Prince and Princess, a family that were separated during the Second World War, due to duty and circumstances. Whilst living in seperate host countries and having absolutely no political influence and power, the drama portrays how the prince and princess, in very different ways, did everything they could to contribute to the war effort. The ultimate cost of their efforts placing an enormous strain on the royal marriage. Atlantic Crossing is well worth watching, but perhaps for a more mature audience.

    'Glitch' in historical accuracy

    This may strike other viewers as trivial nitpicking...but it made me wonder how careful the series makers were about other matters. Episode 3 has Norway's U. S. Ambassador greeting the Princess after her transoceanic voyage, to lead her to the press briefing he's set up. He's quite proud to tell that representatives were present from all the press, radio broadcasters, AND TV!! In 1940, what's 'TV'?!

    I say 'so what' to the naysayers.

    Beautifully filmed. Historical movies try to cram 5-10 years into a 90-minute movie. They are all sensationalized. Many historical books are filled with icing covering half-baked cakes. How many people take the Bible at it's word? Humbug. This Masterpiece depiction at least gave six hours to the story instead of a measly ninety minutes. Of course there are likely to be some mischaracterizations and misrepresentations. After all, no one knows the entire truth of the story. Just as there is a zero percent chance that the Bible story is true to fact. It ain't.

    I say humbug to the historical snobs. Folks will gain a far better knowledge of the Princess's story than they would by watching any stupid reality show on TV. Get over yourselves and give Masterpiece their due for a lovely production. And to all who watch this story, if you have further interest in learning some more of the truth of the story, along with what I'm sure will be more icing covering a half-baked cake, do some further reading and studying.

    Wasted Opportunities

    This could have been a masterpiece of historical storytelling with a script that focused on the Norwegian peoples' suffering under Hitler and the Royal family's many efforts to free them. But after the first riveting episode, the script becomes stuck inside Sweden's politics, Buckingham Palace and Washington DC with boring storylines that go nowhere. Honestly, I was insulted for the brave Norwegians and their Royal Family. They deserved far better, especially from Masterpiece Theater.

    • Trivia
      Franklin D. Roosevelt's first Secretary of War was George Henry Dern. Kyle MacLachlan worked with his great-granddaughter, actress Laura Dern, in Blue Velvet (1986) and Twin Peaks: The Return (2017).
    • Goofs
      Sets and scenery of the countryside and of interior and exterior of the house are conspicuously Mid-European, looking nothing at all like rural or suburban Virginia in the 1940s.
