The Girl King

This biographical drama revolves around Sweden's famous 16th-century "virgin queen" Christina — the only surviving legitimate child of King Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden and his wife Maria Eleonora of Brandenburg — who succeeded her father at the age of 6 upon his death. Brilliant, androgynous, and very likely queer, Queen Christina of Sweden is definitely one of the most interesting monarchs in history, even if this movie doesn't quite do her justice.

Watch it now.
