Mar 9, 2018For a European like myself watching the utterly gut-wrenching scene of Prince Philip marching behind a cohort of Nazis or all the other obscenely fake historical takes on the death of his sister was enough to wake up from this languid soap opera and realize this is extremely well packaged, meticulously assembled and well acted ...trash

The viewer won’t laugh much at the latest “Crown,” which suffers, as did the first season, from great swaths of tedious speechifying broken up by electric moments.

There’s more bitter than sweet in this season, to be certain; that doesn’t sour the story, however, which speaks to Morgan’s skill in building the story and the history, which he strengthens by making season 2 more of an ensemble piece and less reliant on Foy.

This personal, complex portrayal of a monarch who by her own admission in the show would rather be living any other life is riveting enough. But The Crown is also a history lesson, as my colleague David Sims has put it, albeit a selective one. It’s gorgeously shot, with flawless re-creations of everything from the Throne Room in Buckingham Palace to a 1950s hospital ward. And it’s surprisingly funny.
