"In the tradition of "Elizabeth" and "Queen Margot" comes _Mad_Love_, a
sumptuous, epic tale of passion and power based on the scandalous true trory
of betrothed royalty and betrayed loyalty.

Shortly after Queen Isabella of Spain sends Columbus off in search of the
New World, she sends her beautiful young daughter, Joan, away for a
politically advantageous arranged marriage.  When Joan meets her  intended,
the dashing and handsome Archduke Philip, the two fall passionately in love.

All is not to remain well for the newlyweds.  As Joan births an abundance of
heirs, Philip's attentions, and affections, wander.  In response to Philip's
philandering, Joan's behavior becomes increasingly erratic.  Seizing the
opportunity to become sole ruler, Philip and his advisers plot to have his
wife declared insane and dethorne her."

The movie is very well done.  Very entertaining, even if you have to read
the subtitles.

Highly recommended!  I rented it at Hollywood Video in Pflugerville.
