| XV; The Other Boleyn Girl Variety Review |
[16 Feb 2008|10:52am] |
 Playing less fast and loose with history than Philippa Gregory’s novel, “The Other Boleyn Girl” is a sexy, good-looking political bodice-ripper with an almost flawless cast at the top of its game. With a straight-arrow script by Peter Morgan (”The Queen”) and smooth direction by Brit TV helmer Justin Chadwick (”Bleak House”), pic has the feel of an Old Hollywood studio costumer freshened up with contempo technique and acting styles. Tip-top cast, led by Tristan Loma and Keely Williams as Henry VIII and Mary Boleyn, could make this score beyond upscale auds with aggressive promotion and good reviews.
Gregory’s 2002 bestseller was previously made into a British telepic of the same title in 2003. Present item has none of the raggedy, low-budget feel of that partly improvised work, and scripter Morgan (who wrote the 2003 miniseries “Henry VIII”) seems utterly at ease with the characters here.
