After watching The White Queen, I couldn't calm down for a long time. Lord Stanly is really a person who can influence history. In the final Battle of Bosworth, his army determined the course of the entire war and also the future destiny of England, York or Lancaster. This drama produced by BBC and starz really established my view of Richard III. This is the second time I review this drama about the War of the Roses. I can't remember whether I watched this drama first or the BBC documentary Richard the Third: The King in the Car Park. But it seems that the BBC intends to reverse the world's view of Richard III, the wicked uncle: he is not the murderer of the prince in the tower. And in order to prevent the rule of England from falling into the hands of the Rivers family, coupled with Duchess Cecily and Lady Anne's hatred of Elizabeth, this Richard who was very loyal to his late brother, his family and chivalry would take away two nephews. The right to inherit, crowned as King. In the play, such evidence can be seen everywhere. During Edward's administration, George, the second son of York's three sons, intended to kill many of his brothers and usurp power. Killing Edward meant that he could take a step towards the throne, but Richard did not. He chose to stand on Edward’s side. When Edward led England to declare war on France and wanted to regain Plantagenet’s territory, the King of France gave Edward a lot to protect himself. Treasures, gold and silver and women, a war for the honor of England turned into a farce, Richard also expressed shame for his brother's behavior; finally crowned himself as king, also to defend the throne of England under the control of the York family, otherwise, The younger Edward's son will be under the control of the Rivers family. As for the princes in the tower who disappeared in the torrent of history, one is the eldest son of Edward IV, the younger Prince Edward, and the other is the fake Prince Richard replaced by Elizabeth. Richard III ordered the two children to be locked up in the Tower of London, but he did not kill his brother's heir in order to consolidate his throne. If the curse really takes effect, then those of us who are posterity have already seen that Henry Tudor and his "pious" mother Lady Margert are the murderers who killed the prince in the tower. Henry lost his eldest son Arthur, and his second son Henry also lost all male heirs. Richard III had warned Elizabeth that curses would hurt the one they loved. This was the only way they could find Prince Edward in the circumstances. At the end of the War of the Roses, after the death of Edward IV, the heirs to the English throne were divided into three camps: Henry Tudor, Queen Elizabeth, Richard the Third. Perhaps Elizabeth has trusted Richard from the beginning, the York family and the Rivers family are united, Prince Edward is crowned as Edward V, and Richard is the Lord Protector, so perhaps England can still be under the control of York. But history is like this. It is the result of everyone's game. Any decision or accident will bring about completely different results. It has to be said that Richard's actor Anurin Barnard has added a lot to this role. His Welsh accent, dark curly hair and green eyes are deeply fascinating, and his new film Interlude in Prague is about to be released, in which he plays the actor Mozart. Aneurin Barald's temperament is very suitable, look forward to it.
