Nell Gwyn Trailers

King Charles II first meets Nell Gwyn after seeing her do a turn at Drury Lane. They soon become close, the King preferring her feisty irreverent company to that of the aristocratic French Duchess of Portsmouth. Nell becomes his most loyal subject, while ever-ready to take the Duchess down a peg. But the actress can never hope to be fully accepted by the King's circle despite his constant attentions.

Reviews
BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
