Good biopic
20 September 2019
Good biopic on the life of Lady Emma Hamilton, and her relationship with Lord Horatio Nelson. Played by real-life couple Laurence Olivier and Vivien Leigh. Interesting as a historical reference piece, as a romantic-drama, and for seeing two screen legends, Olivier and Leigh, playing opposite each other.

Well written and directed. It does get bogged down in the third quarter or so though.

The battle sequence - Trafalgar (of course) - is excellent, especially for 1941.

The stunningly beautiful Vivien Leigh is superb in the lead role. Laurence Olivier puts in a solid performance as Lord Nelson.
