The Lion In Winter

It's Christmas of 1183, and Henry II (Patrick Stewart) must find a successor to his throne. He favours his youngest son John, while his wife, Eleanor, believes that their eldest son, Richard the Lionhearted, would make a better king. While their disagreement plunges the family into a deceitful war of wills, it becomes apparent that neither of their three conniving boys are qualified for the job. Director Andrei Konchalovsky remakes the 1968 classic in this sumptuous 2003 television production.
