If A Royal Affair hit the spot, these will too

Both land stillness and scale at once

Romantic and tender in the same breath

Contemplative drama, and it commits to that

The same preoccupation in both: love triangle

Both are built on the same subject: infidelity
The difference: Easier on the scale than A Royal Affair

History built on scale, twice over
The difference: The scrappier of the two with critics

One thread runs through both: secret love

Romance with a pulse of romance, in both cases

Both lean on tenderness more than on drama

Contemplative romance in both cases


Tender drama in both cases
In the mood for more contemplative?
