The Devil's Mistress

British director Marc Munden made this period drama for  British TV. The English Civil War is told through the eyes of a fictional woman and various real characters between the years of 1642 to 1660. Munden blended history with melodrama to recreate a dark period in British history with a talented cast that includes few rising actors. Andrea Riseborough, Dominic West, John Simm and Michael Fassbender star with solid performances that makes this drama worthwhile. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
