About A Dangerous Friendship

In the court of 17th-century France, two women form a bond that will change history. Marie de Rohan is bold, brilliant, and unafraid of scandal. Anne of Austria is a lonely queen, trapped in a loveless marriage to King Louis XIII. As Marie pulls Anne into her world, their friendship is their greatest strength--and most dangerous weakness. From Walter Presents, in French with English subtitles.
