    Lynne Frederick as Katherine Howard is proof that it's quality that counts not quantity, with far less screentime than other actresses on this list. In about 20 minutes she was able to create so many layers to Katharine, that I truly felt for her but also seeing the complexities and grey areas. For a movie that limits the wives screentime or deliberately gets them wrong through's Henry's biased memory, it's amazing Katharine gets the best treatment as she sadly gets the short end of the stick in other productions. Angela Pleasance at 30 is not the least bit convincing as 17, also Katharine is portrayed as pretty vindictive that you don't sympathise with her. Tamzin Merchant does the best with what she's given, but the writing made her too bratty and naive. Emily Blunt is one of my favourite actresses (and thank goodness for My Summer Of Love which boosted her career the following year) but is sadly Katherine in name only.

      I think they were using a famous painting of Jane Grey(?) as inspiration, hence the blindfold
      But I also read somewhere that the painting might not even be of Jane Grey.
      Idk, that whole reference is a mess.

    I've always had a soft spot for Catherine Howard, poor girl 😔🌹
    She was much more than her ditzy stereotype and could rise to the occasion and be Queenly when needed.
    Lynne Frederick is hands down the best portrayer of Catherine, none compare. A fairly rounded portrayal.
    Tamzin Merchant is the poorest portrayal. So much unnecessary nudity. She portrayed Catherine as a spoilt airheaded brat.
    That execution scene with Emily Blunt is an insult to the memory of Catherine who died with courage and grace.

    • @emilyelyse
      @emilyelyse 3 роки тому +24

      I respect your opinion, I just think in The Tudors they were trying to have each queen be unique and different. We don't know what Catherine was truly like in day to day life, only that she was a child trying her best to be a Queen when she likely had no idea what to do as she wasn't born royalty. Nudity is not something to hate on in most cases although I can see how since she is only a teenager it is used to lure audiences in a bit too much. I think Tamzin's portrayal of how Catherine handles imprisonment and ultimately does not break into tears or throw a fit shows that she had grown from her bad experience but sadly too late. I do think Lynne was awesome, I wish the whole movie had been dedicated to Kitty Howard to get to see Lynne flesh out the character even more.

    • @Shane-Flanagan
      @Shane-Flanagan 3 роки тому +14

      @@emilyelyse Fair enough. Yes the Tudors did want each wife to be different but they made Catherine appear very modern like, many of her gestures and body movements were too modern and just didn't fit the period and surroundings for me. She was also portrayed quite airhead like until up to the point maybe when she was imprisoned. She reminded me of some American Prom Queen rather than a young 15th century English Queen. I'm not hating on nudity, it's common in most historical dramas but The Tudors had Catherine nude too much, very unnecessary.

    Lynne Frederick is the best, both in terms of resemblance and performance. While I loved the BBC mini-series with Keith Michell, Angela Pleasance was not convincing. First of all, she was almost 30 when she did that role, and the script made Catherine look like an ill-tempered and vengeful shrew. Binnie Barnes was too tall and cynical, and she was quite older as well.

    In my book, "Justice Gone Haywire," the first chapter is devoted to Queen Katherine Howard. I try to show that the evidence against her is much weaker than generally supposed and that she may never have committed adultery with Thomas Culpepper or anyone else. I believe, as does Conor Byrne and others, that she was railroaded.
