Stately costume piece about the British court trying to deal with King George III and his bouts of mental illness. Nigel Hawthorne bounces back and forth between a regal bearing and a pathetic state of mind. Helen Mirren is good as his compassionate wife. It's an interesting perspective about a historical figure who was traditionally maligned in American popular culture.
