Johann Friedrich Struensee, a German-born 18th-century physician and martyr for liberty, is well known to schoolchildren in Denmark. Analogies are imperfect this critic’s mastery of Danish history even more so  but Struensee, who died a few years before the start of the American Revolution, might be compared to Thomas Jefferson or Benjamin Franklin. Like other eminent figures of the Age of Reason he was both a politician and a man of science, a philosopher and what we might nowadays call a player.

Lover, fighter, thinker and schemer that is the portrait that emerges in “A Royal Affair,” an Advanced Placement bodice-ripper directed by Nikolaj Arcel. Struensee, played with an intriguing blend of dash and gloom by Mads Mikkelsen, is depicted with a reverence touched by slightly envious admiration. This guy not only reformed the Danish legal code and pushed a backward nation toward the light of modernity. He also slept with the queen!
