The White Queen - BLU-RAY

This show is very interesting. Women vying for the throne and doing whatever it takes to make it happen.

This is a great series! Five stars! And REALLY wanted the digital copy to add to my library. But beware when purchasing… no digital copy. It states digital copy in the writing; it shows a digital copy in the picture; but there is no digital copy. Zero stars for not getting what was ordered. Will be returning.

Very entertaining show! If you like Game of Thrones, you'll probably like this.

Overall, this show is great! It's a fascinating time in British history. This series is also generally historically accurate as well. I love the main actresses, Rebecca Ferguson, Amanda Hale, and Faye Marsay. They, as well as most of the other actors and actresses are splendid in their roles. The only actor that was miscast was Max Irons. He just wasn't the best for the part of Edward IV. Additionally, there are unnecessary mature scenes peppered throughout the series, so it's not appropriate for younger audiences, but that's not surprising since this was shown on Starz. There's also a witchcraft theme which is really dopey. In any case, though, I recommend this show because it's fascinating to learn about this time in British history. The Wars of the Roses finally makes sense! The acting is great and the show is fast paced. Highly recommended.

Before I saw this series, I did not know what The White Queen was about. I saw a trailer for it on TV and found that it was to be a TV series based on Philippa Gregory's novel of the same name. I knew of her work from the movie version of her novel The Other Boleyn Girl (a very inaccurate take on Tudor history), but have not as of yet read any of her novels based roughly upon between 15-1600's on the Tudor's and so fourth. I love Tudor history and more than that I love anything on the British Monarchy. I know a lot on Henry VIII and his wives as well as Queen Elizabeth I, but I did not have any knowledge onto the Plantagenet's or anything about the War of the Roses. So I jumped on this series and immediately!
