Napoleon (2002) short review

By on in Nineteenth Century

2002 Napoleon

Pretty darn terrible, except for the genius casting of Isabella Rossellini as Josephine.  She looks great but doesn’t get enough screen time.  The rest is very TV movie of the week.

    Watching this on Amazon while cleaning house. Yeah, very TV movie of the week. How it won an Emmy is beyond me. And lots of saris come Regency.
