Lady Campbell, one of the three speculating, wasn't even born until 1949, so how could she have any insight into what happened behind closed doors. She was so obviously a hater of the Queen Mother and enthralled with Wallis Simpson. She's obviously a gold digger since she was only married to Lord Campbell for a year, obviously wanting a title.
I can't believe those sky lantern with candles were released in this movie. They're so dangerous for fish and wildlife!
I can't believe all these women were enthralled by Michael. He must have been the only eligible male in town.
I didn't think this movie was that bad. I've seen worse on Lifetime!
This was an OK movie, but in the scenes with the ranch family, the "boys" are abusing the donkeys and horses by first, carrying the donkey over his shoulders and then riding the horse backwards, with the horse running and bucking to get the guy off and the donkey squirming to get off the guy's shoulders. Where were the animals rights people when this segment was being filmed? I don't see the relevance for this segment at all. There also should have been more stories about the dogs, rather than the people. Also, what did the actor Dirk Bogarde do with his Corgis when he had to move to take care of his lover? There were a lot of unanswered questions in this movie.
I saw this movie and liked it -- OK, some of the acting wasn't that great, but the love story between the two secondary actors was really romantic. I go to movies to enjoy them and get away from reality -- I try not to psychoanalyze every single bit of the movie. I thought Gerard Butler did a good job, but what really got on my nerves was when Frances O'Connor kept on inquiring as to the whereabouts of Merick -- that got a little old real quick. The battle sequences were great, and the costumes were true to life. The little bit of mystery at the end of the movie added to the mistique.
