Margrete: Queen of the North (2021)

Margrete
The costuming is very good, with the sort of attention to detail essential in giving a film like this credibility.

Visually, directorially ...

Film review: Margrete
A game of thrones rooted in 15th-century Nordic history plays out majestically in a Danish period piece that seems to represent all that Scandinavian filmmakers excel at: strong acting and directing, great stories and a lot of psychological intrigue.
