From Claire’s 17th-century info, a link to this site from Channel 4; they’ve rounded up historians to review a number of historical films. I hope it’ll expand in the future, but early modernists should take note as Blair Worden rips into Cromwell (1970). (Which, from what I’ve heard, doesn’t even redeem itself by being any good as a film.)
Has anyone seen Stage Beauty? Is it any good as history or film - or even both? It sounds interesting.
