Guy Ritchie's Waterloo (2013)
Waterloo is a british comedy, about the english poet Sir John Harrington and his invention of the first working watercloset at the behest of Queen Elisabeth in 1596. Kit Harrington's performance in the role of his excentric ancestor is lauded as "hillariously brilliant" and Lena Headey's performance as the Virgin Queen Elisabeth I. is simply unbelievable. The movie gives a suprisingly realistic and well researched account of intrigue and rivalries at court in the 16th century. The rather dark political plots in the background get broken up with dry british humor and slapstick.
Director: Guy Ritchie
