Highly effective anti-Leicester University propaganda from the Ricardians.

filmsociopathSep 9, 2022Maybe I just didn't feel like rooting for a protagonist trying to clear the name of a British monarch today.

- Sophie likedThe Lost King
Against all odds, and when she finally proves them wrong, they take all the credit. Shameful behaviour from those powerful ones, but it's always the same. The parallels between Philippa & Richard are interesting. It's an okay movie.
moonela lovedThe Lost KingQué película más inesperada de ver. Inspirada en una historia real. Que bien saber que la propulsora principal de este proyecto recibió el reconocimiento. Y pues nada, vivan los nerds, los clubes y las sociedades!
Ingrid Gonzalez lovedThe Lost KingThe last of the Plantagenet kings. Restored to his title, no longer a usurper. Glad I finally finished it. Can’t wait to read more about him and see what conclusion Josephine Tey comes to in her book too.

Never heard of this story, fascinating! Also infuriating to learn about Phillipa's treatment by the Leicester uni and authorities
I Am Vengeance lovedThe Lost KingL’acteur qui joue Richard III ressemble à Joaquin Phénix, l’actrice principale est beaucoup trop forte

With his charming, sympathetic picture The Lost King, Stephen Frears digs into the fairly recent rehabilitation of the misunderstood monarch’s legacy—as well as the 2012 discovery of his long-lost bones beneath a Leicester parking lot.

It’s a film that calls into question our own biases and accepted notions and encourages one to get out there and find the truth — it could be an adventure after all.

The story twists and struggles keep engaging through, whether you know the outcome or not.
