Nicholas and Alexandra, 1971

History presented as art. A very entertaining look at a very dark period of Russian History. What was Czar Nicholas Romanov thinking? was he thinking? The writing was on the wall for years and years that their form of Government was coming to an end. He had more than enough opportunities to make changes, and to not have his Government overthrown by violence, yet he did not take advantage of all of the warnings. So when he is finally overthrown in this drama, it is difficult to feel any pity for him and his family. I believe that is the reason none of his Royal relatives came to his rescue, surely the Royal families of Europe could have Ransomed the Romanovs if they had wanted to. The British Royal family did not take him in, and his other cousins did not help, and so as we know, his entire family was executed. This movie shows some of the reasons for this and why it happened. I give this movie a rating of 5*****STARS
