Windsor Knot

MOVIE TRAILER:

The year is 1936, and England is in turmoil. The Prince of Wales, long known for his love for gambling and his many mistresses, has ascended the throne as King Edward VIII. His first act was as King was to appear with a married woman, Wallis Simpson. Mrs. Simpson, an American divorcee from Baltimore, is still married her second husband.

The royal scandal escalated to a crisis when the new King announced his intent to marry Mrs. Simpson — before she had even filed for divorce from her husband. The members of Parliament, outraged by such an unsuitable choice for a royal consort, have informed Edward that if he attempts to marry Wallis and name her queen, the entire government will resign en masse. Edwards has proposed a compromise: a “morganatic” marriage in which Wallis will not be Queen. The option has been rejected.

Prime Minister STANLEY BALDWIN and Home Secretary SIR JOHN SIMPSON arrive unannounced at the King’s country estate, and powerful personalities clash, making history!

Starring H. Alton Cox, George Lee, John Jackman.
