silent historical drama base on the story of anne boleyn and newly arrive lady in wait to the queen who catch the lustful eye of henry viii and bad temper king of england who love to feast and drink and hunt and be entertain by his court jester and watch joust and and chase around after young beauty who jump out of cake and assorted attractive female around the castle . well and he soon annul his marriage and marry anne and and tell her it be her holy duty to produce a male heir . she fail on that score and he soon have his eye on yet another lady in wait . meanwhile and anne spends pretty much the entire film look hesitant and perturbed and or downright ready to burst into tear . she just doesn not come across a a happy camper ( or be it just bad act . ) . this film be a solid piece of entertainment and with an absorb story that hold my interest for two hour plus i enjoy see the very lavish medieval costuming feature here on a gorgeous sepia tint print . emil jannings be quite striking and memorable in his well do portrayal of king henry the eighth he really seem like he be henry the eighth . i be not so sure about the performance give by the actress who play anne and seem a bit over the top . the dvd of this film feature an appropriate and nicely do piano score that perfectly suit this story . quite a good film .
