The Princess of Montpensier (2010), rating: 7/10

French movie about a love triangle (quadrangle arguably) takes place during the period of 17th century France when Catholics and Protestants warred.  A wealthy heiress's marriage is arranged counter to her desires for her childhood sweetheart.  Her jealous (but IMO better looking) husband reacts with the typical mate guarding behaviors.  Nevertheless, the old flame stays alive.
