Review

Madonna’s flashy, bloated romantic drama focuses on parallel story lines—the controversial relationship between King Edward VIII and American divorcée Wallis Simpson, and a modern-day courtship between a young married woman named Wally and a Russian security guard—but fails to connect them in any meaningful way. Striking cinematography, though.
