Review of Versailles

What about the series? The acting is phenomenal on the parts of these two brothers, the king and prince, who play so well off of each other over sibling rivalry issues, lovers, power and the disdainful lusts and charades the king lays on his own brother, worst of all sleeping with his wife and sending to and fro throughout the project this was. i knew they worked o ae series to play him like a throw away pawn, we see how really conniving and devious this king really was...all very conceivable and convincing, as well as entertaining and full of decadence; often showing adjacent ways disgusting human race treated each other, then...sadly it hasn't changed much today? I don't now how true to fact this story is being told, but i did formal studies of the design aspects of Versailles as it was being built, during the old' college years...i wasn't aware, this was as big of a project as it was. The french were the first at Versailles to build one of the greatest aqueduct systems "in the world", and yet it only recently needed some rebuilding and deep repairs...that's how far ahead the French were ass it related to technology and civil engineering. The series shows the honesty of how messed up the use of power was back in the day...women are objects to be negotiate. i d also appreciate the honest dealings with the differences in how Europeans treat sexual nature, versus the USA! The rest of the supporting roles are many and well done, also. The costumes are right on, periodically speaking, and done very tastefully! Also, this series brings up issues we all face today...the rights for privacy our own personal sexual lives, the issues of govt versus small business and entrepreneur class getting what their worth, instead of paying for the royals lives, first and foremost, as if that is not one of the biggest issues of this last two decade, everywhere, as well as brings up social status and rights to be treated humanely, no matter who you are! the indignities women suffered, even in social status! I do really love the cinema photography. lots to delight! i don't know why the score is not better? The only other reviewer suggests "baloney on English accents" versus using French? Really? How many thousands of period pieces are done and almost all of them are in the British accent and topography, almost all the time...another ???do we care??? question? No, most assuredly, not. See this one...it's worth the time, and time does fly with this one!!! Enjoy!
