iain-13420 Loved this series. Great cast, costumes and superb drama. Didn't want it to end

bitmap-85826 Most events are far from truth but this serie deserves a 10 only for Versailles itself, you are instantly dropped in the middle of 1600 together with King Luis and his court, ambience, fashion, a great work is done everything is just magnificent!!

pierremichauville It's a typical Canal+ production: * filmed in English (presumably to help it sell, but sells less than Le Bureau des légendes filmed in French), I find this ridiculous; * many historical errors: Louvoie has the same age as Louis XIV (very young), Colbert completely absent while he is the most important minister (but not the "Prime minister" a term never used at that time) not Louvoie, Louvoie never ambitioned the throne or any such thing; * esthetical mistakes: Louis XIV was not so handsome, didn't have such nice hair (he lost them eraly due to disease, hence the wigs), his wife the Queen was not a slender dark lady but she was a rather short,plump, blonde! * the story of the Queen having a black child has not historical basis (a malevolent rumor), trustworthy witnesses discount it completely, but I understand Canal+ loves this * and of course, gay sex.

brian_pabular Superb cinematography, great character development, and a wonderfully woven plot - can't wait for the third series!! Special credit goes to George Blagden, Tygh Runyan, and Pip Torrens for their gripping performances and the intriguing and complicated characters they portray!
