Theme of the day for Friday, August 3rd: British Royalty. Understanding the British Royalty can be very confusing. I found a couple of websites that are well organized and helped me better understand the different houses. Tudor History clearly explains the six wives of Henry VIII as well as the Tudor lineage. English Monarchs has the complete history of Kings and Queens of England. The first six movies cover the monarchy under the House of Tudor.
The Other Boleyn Girl (2008) about Anne Boleyn sister, Mary
Elizabeth (1998) about the beginning of the Queen's reign
Mary, Queen of Scots (1971) about threat to Elizabeth's throne
Mary of Scotland (1936) about Mary Stuart, rival to Elizabeth
The Lion in Winter (1968) King Henry II - House of Plantagenet
The King's Speech (2010) King George VI - House of Windsor
The Queen (2006) Queen Elizabeth II - House of Windsor
