Catherine the Great 1995 TV, 100 min. Genre: Drama
Director: Marvin J. Chomsky, John Goldsmith Cast: Catherine Zeta-Jones, Paul McGann, Ian Richardson, Brian Blessed, John Rhys-Davies, Agnes Soral, Mark McGann, Mel Ferrer, Jeanne Moreau, Karl Johnson
If you're a fan of Catherine Zeta-Jones, you may be interested in this film. The young (26 at the time of the film's release) Catherine plays Russian Empress Catherine as she rises to power followed by the early years of her reign. A history course this is not, as the major events of 18th-century Russia are merely "Oh, by the ways."
