Elizabeth: The Golden Age

Costumes and history -- yawn. But I learned that King Philip II of Spain looked like Mahmoud Ahmadinejad -- not wrong to me, so strong to me, like a very hairy Jake Gyllenhaal to me. And I learned what Queen Elizabeth's derriere looked like. And I learned that Walter Raleigh, a pirate of sorts, named Virginia for the Virgin Queen. So it wasn't a complete waste of two hours.

Isn't this the Dana Carvey as Strom Thurmond definition of porn? Such as what's got a story and costumes of the period?
