During Christmas of 1183, Eleanor of Aquitaine has been temporarily pardoned by her husband, King Henry II, who had her imprisoned years before for her many attempts to overthrow him. With her fleeting freedom, Eleanor quickly manipulates her three sons, John, Geoffrey, and Richard, into scheming against one another for the throne. Along with Princess Alais and her brother, King Philip of France, THE LION IN WINTER portrays an articulate, witty, and dark comic view of the medieval (and perhaps modern) dysfunctional family.
