In 1998, lonely New Yorker Wally Winthrop is obsessed with what she perceives as the ultimate love story: King Edward VIII's abdication of the British throne for the woman he loved, American divorcee Wallis Simpson.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Enjoyable submitted by crazypockets on August 30, 2013, 7:24pm I didn't really know what to expect from this movie, but I wound up liking it. I think Madonna did a solid job as a director, and it's a shame this didn't get more attention. The acting was compelling, though I got a little annoyed with Abbie Cornish's consistent sad face. It gave me a different perspective on Wallace and Edward though and made me appreciate what they did in a different light.
Interesting look at the Royals submitted by mandevil on September 16, 2016, 8:29am Wallace and Edward- and how he gave up being king for her.
