Gina and I binged watched the two seasons of "The Crown" on Netflix over the past week. Not sure about the accuracy, but there was a lot to like about it. Clare Foy says more with her eyes than many actors speak in a lifetime. John Lithgow was an amazing version of Churchill. The photography was excellent and I thought the music was wonderful throughout. The second season had sprinklings of the classics along with the the music of Rupert Greyson-Williams. One familiar piece was haunting but I had to cheat (I have an app for that) to find out what it was. It was Lacrimosa from Mozart's last (and incomplete) composition, the Requiem in D minor. It turned out that he wrote it for himself, having died while composing it.
HERE is all 2 minutes and 53 seconds of Lacrimosa - worth the listen.
Looking forward to Season 3. By the way, while looking for something English to photograph, I found this little musician that I purchased on my first visit to London in 2001.
