Forbidden History The Man in the Iron Mask (2013– ) watch online HD

An interesting subject but the self conscious gimmicky camerawork ruins the show. The camera shots are deliberately wobbly, the footage where the camera operator hunts for focus or adjusts the framing is not cut out but is left for all to see. There are even crash zooms on the rostrum camera shots of historical engravings; a technique that was hackneyed enough back in the 1970s. Why draw attention to the technology in this fashion? It distracts from the content and it just makes the viewer think that the producers can't come up with a good enough story, so they've "embellished" it to distract us from the lack of substance, which is no mean feat with a romantic story such as this.
