Hello clever people. I'm trying to come up with films that give a central role to the character or theme of kingship/monarchy throughout the ages. In particular:
Pre-history or tribal (Apocolypto? I've not seen it)
Antiquity (Alexander? Anything about Egypt that's decent?)
The middle-ages (A Man for All Seasons?)
Absolutism, the Enlightenment, and the French revolution (To Kill a King?)
Constitutional monarchy (King's Speech? Elizabeth? Haven't seen either).
Really, anything that broadly can fit into those categories (or even outside of them slightly).
