Mar 3, 2017 A TV-film, that's why. See more Apr 23, 2013 Interesting are the ways in which the royalty sleep and manipulate their lower ranks for the throne... See more Mar 1, 2013 really wish this movie could be remake w/ maybe a little different approach to the main character, nevertheless Catherine was sooo beautiful here :) See more Jan 28, 2013 Despite the myriad advances in film-making between this over-dressed/poorly-contrived biopic and that of the darkly-filmed/overly theatrical "Scarlet Empress" made sixty years before, both are mostly horse-drawn vehicles for their respective stars, and neither leaves the viewer greatly convinced that he has seen the REAL Catherine the Great. See more Nov 4, 2012 "My dear, I am about to seize the throne of Russia. What on earth shall I wear?" says Catherine Zeta-Jones as the regal title character. This well-made and consistently entertaining, if not always riveting, television miniseries is elevated by an abundance of fine supporting performances.
