This was delicious. I had it with a tesco side salad and San Peligrino. It would go equally well with a bottle of white wine or white wine at the weekend.

8. ‘The Other Boleyn Girl’ (2008)
Portman very much has the face and the temperment to be starring in historical costume dramas, but — as an American — those roles are relatively few and far between. ‘The Other Boleyn Girl’ is one of her few efforts in the genre, and it’s a relatively forgettable slog. Still, she’s acquits herself well, playing Henry VIII’s second wife, Anne Boleyn, in a film that tracks her pursuit of the king behind the back of her sister Mary (Scarlett Johansson). One of the most famous historical figures of her era, Anne has been played by many actresses, but Portman offers a refreshingly different take. On the surface, she’s seductive and devious, but Portman never lets the audience forget how young, inexperienced, and naive this young women thrust into the political intrigue of the royal court truly is.
Her No 8 best film
Conclusion
Enjoy your weekend
