Edward and Mrs. Simpson (TV Mini-series)

 

UK 1978, 350 minutes
Dir. Waris Hussein
Genres: Television, Drama

Topics: Period 1930s.

 

Aroview: Tasteful, but perceptive television series follows the scandalous romance between British monarch Edward VIII and American socialite (and divorcee) Wallis Simpson, which eventually led to the King's abdication in 1936.

Fox and Harris are both excellent as the beleaguered, if thoroughly obtuse couple, while the script draws out a several of the relevant historical threads, including Edward's pro-Nazi leanings. Based on the biography by Frances Donaldson.
