Summary:  "She started life as a minor German Princess, but would become one of Russia's greatest rulers. This lavishly filmed two-part biography was extensively researched, and for the first time ever, makes use of Catherine's intimate memoirs and personal letters, bringing her dramatic story to life. Locked in a loveless marriage, Catherine maneuvered through the intrigue and treachery of the Russian court. When her chance came, she seized power in a daring coup and became Empress of Russia. During her glorious reign spanning 34 years, Catherine studied modern Western thinking and attempted to bring new ideas about health and education to Russia. With her lover at her side, she waged numerous wars to expand Russia's borders. Fearless in war, passionate in love, and ruthless with her enemies, Catherine the Great forged an empire that made Russia the envy of Europe."--Container. Genre:  Biographical films.
