Trivia:
Olivia Hussey was the first choice for the role of Anne, but she turned the role down due to personal problems she was dealing with at the time. moreGoofs:
Factual errors: In one scene Mary and her mother Catherine of Aragon are talking, it is very obvious that Anne is Queen. When Anne was Queen, Mary and her mother were forbidden to see each other, yet the movie shows Catherine and Mary talking about Henry and Anne's marriage. moreQuotes:
Anne: Doesn't do that well. Not as well as I've known it done. But it's the one arm I want- for some God-knows-what reason. You do everything badly- everything awkwardly- and I love it the way you do it. moreFAQ

Despite historical inaccuracies necessarily prevalent in historical dramas (i.e. not documentaries), this film is exquisitely conceived, written, directed, and performed. In my opinion, it is perhaps one of the best historical dramas ever produced, and both Bujold and Burton are remarkable. It's a pity that this film is not more widely known. I highly recommend it.
