Description | 16th century Spain. Carlos, heir to the throne is paralysed by guilty love for his French stepmother Elizabeth. His hatred for his cold and autocratic father Philip II knows no bounds. He enlists his oldest friend, Rodrigo, the Marquis of Posa, to act as go-between. But Rodrigo decides to convert Carlos and Elizabeth's youthful passion into a full-scale rebellion against King Philip's oppressive and bloody regime. German classic "Don Carlos" is a super-charged political thriller. A stealthy, steamy hothouse of frustrated and near incestuous passion, sexual jealousy, intrigue, self-interest, |
