Starring Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult and created and produced by Tony McNamara, “The Great” followed Catherine the Great — Russia’s longest-reigning empress from 1762 to 1796 — as she navigated her roller-coaster relationship with husband Peter III of Russia.

Contrasting with these straightforward relationship sagas is the gleefully raunchy “The Great,” in which dewy-eyed Elle Fanning, as the titular Catherine the Great of Russia, realizes just minutes into her newly arranged life as empress to Nicholas Hoult’s Peter III — a randy, boundlessly crass, delusional sot — that “I am a prisoner here, married to an idiot.”
