Catherine the Great (1995 TV Movie)
8/10
A Very Good Drama Not A Documentary
15 December 2023
Enjoyed the film. However, a couple of significant departures. First, Peter III did not consummate their marriage due to psychological problems, not a physical problem as indicated in this picture. Knowledge of Peter III's issues comes only from Catherine's own memoirs. Second, Catherine had some erotic furniture constructed. Although she died in 1792, the furniture survived until the mid-19th century when it was photographed. These prints are currently held in the Harvard University museum I am informed. This seems to infer that Catherine entertained more than one lover at once, which could never be put in a film.
