The Lion in Winter is set during Christmas 1183, at King Henry II's château and primary residence in Chinon, Anjou, within the Angevin Empire of medieval France. Henry wants his youngest son, the future King John, to inherit his throne, while his estranged and imprisoned wife, Duchess Eleanor of Aquitaine, favours their oldest surviving son, the future King Richard the Lionheart. Meanwhile, King Philip II of France, the son and successor of Louis VII of France, Eleanor's ex-husband, has given his half-sister Alais, who is currently Henry's mistress, to the future heir, and demands either a wedding or the return of her dowry.
The most royal of the cycle of ‘60s films dealing with the history and castle intrigues of Medieval England, Anthony Harvey’s THE LION IN WINTER returns in a new 4K restoration by Studiocanal. At Christmas Court in 1183 King Henry II (Peter O’Toole) argues with his estranged wife, Eleanor (Katharine Hepburn), over whether Prince John (Nigel Terry) or Richard (Anthony Hopkins in his film debut) shall inherit the throne. Complicating matters, King Philip II of France (Timothy Dalton, also his debut) seeks his own fortune by demanding his sister Alais (Jane Merrow), currently Henry’s mistress, be betrothed to Richard, all the while stirring insurrection among all of Henry’s sons toward their father. rialtopictures.com

Alla vigilia di Natale dell'anno 1183 alla corte di Enrico II la successione al trono scatena odi e stringe alleanze tra i figli del sovrano. Tutti aspirano alla corona per motivi differenti: Riccardo Cuor di Leone è mosso dalla sete di conquista, Goffredo cerca la gloria, Giovanni Senza Terra è accecato dall'avidità. Eleonora di Aquitania, l'astuta e manipolatrice moglie di Enrico II, cerca di usare i suoi figli contro il marito che la tiene prigioniera nelle torri del castello, complottando l'abdicazione di Enrico II in favore del suo preferito Riccardo. Ma Giovanni, primogenito e legittimo erede al trono, è deciso a tenere per sé l'intero regno: insieme a Filippo, re di Francia, ha messo a punto un piano ingegnoso per avere tutto e subito.

Kate Hepburn and Glenn Close as Eleanor of Aquitaine
“Not in Alexandria, or Rome or Camelot has there been such a Queen,” are among the colorful words used to describe Queen Eleanor in this masterpiece. I have loved Kate Hepburn ever since I was a kid. For me she is perhaps the greatest American film actress, and this is I think her greatest triumph captured on film. For me she’s Eleanor. I am in the middle of an Alison Weir biography on the life of my favorite Queen, and decided to show my love for her various different re-incarnations across the film world.
Glenn Close is one of the finest and most diverse actresses of today, and she continues to get better and better over the years. I had not originally paid much attention to this Eleanor when it first debuted on television, but I have come to watch her performance many, many times over ...

Glenn Close is one of the finest and most diverse actresses of today, and she continues to get better and better over the years. I had not originally paid much attention to this Eleanor when it first debuted on television, but I have come to watch her performance many, many times over the years and appreciate it today. She has some very beautiful scenes in this film. I would describe her as a very demonstrative Eleanor, she has an outstanding, regal physical presence she exhibits in several scenes, yet she is an extremely vulnerable Eleanor with a high-strung temperament. Her face is luminous and expressive.
The high emotion levels Glenn brings make me inclined to take what she says at face-value more often, I think that is very dangerous to do with Kate, whose performance and character is more methodical. I think Glenn's Eleanor resembles her eldest surviving son Richard in her temperament, but I think Kate's is actually closer to Geoffrey's.
Kate is of course oozing with natural charisma, but I also think she's a master at weaving gold into platinum when it comes to the delivery of Goldman's delectable dialogue. She has more wit, Glenn, and I think the cast in general of the 2003 adaptation are often more serious in tone.
I enjoy making comparisons between the two. I like both performances, and I think this particular scene was a great score for both actresses. Who do you prefer her? Do you like both, just one, neither?
Goddess of the silver screen versus a living legend.
Queen Eleanor is estranged from her three sons and husband Henry II, who has placed her under house arrest. Eleanor wishes for her oldest surviving and favorite son Richard to succeed after Henry is gone. While Henry grooms his favorite, John the less capable and youngest son, to succeed. When Eleanor gets an invitation by Henry to come to court at Chignon for Christmas, she gets busy with her plots! Her first priority is to talk to Richard. In this scene her prodigal son brings out both the mother and politician in her.
You might also want to discuss what you think of the two Richards. It is always a pleasure to see the young and already preciously talented Anthony Hopkins. Andrew Howard, who acts opposite Glenn Close was a revelation to me, I’ve seen so little of his work, but can certainly see that he is a brilliant actor based on his interpretation of Richard the Lionheart.
