The Lion in Winter (2003)

It's amazing how twisted these characters are. You can never be sure if anything they're saying is sincere or if it's just all a scheme. Solid performances by Patrick Stewart and Glenn Close, and a very good script (virtually identical to the original, to my recollection). However, if given a choice between watching this remake and the 1968 version, go with the older one. While Stewart and Close are good, Peter O'Toole and Katharine Hepburn are even better. 3.5 stars.
