The actors play a scheming mother and son in the sometimes macabre royal court drama — one with a wicked comedic bite to it.
It was supposed to be a somber scene in “Mary & George,” the Starz limited series about an opportunistic Jacobean widow who maneuvers her second-born son, George , into the corridors of English power. The moment called for Moore, as Mary, to toss a handful of dirt into the camera lens and onto the casket of her late, abusive husband. But it seems Moore, while one of the best actors around, doesn’t have particularly good aim.
There was a heat to it and a directness and a kind of profaneness that I thought was interesting.” Mary ends up steering George into the court of the sexually voracious King James I , whom he seduces on his way to gaining power and influence in diplomatic affairs. Rising from their low station, mother and son trample over propriety, make a lot of people angry and even leave a few bodies in their wake. It’s a rags-to-riches story in which the rags are soaked with blood.
