Until the movie came out a few years ago I didn't know that Anne Boleyn had a sister named Mary, or a sister at all really. I knew what most of us know; Anne was the second wife of Henry the 8th who broke the Church of England away from from Rome to wed her. Mother of the future Queen Elizabeth the 1st and was beheaded by Henry for not giving him a son. Although he used the excuse of witchcraft & adultery with several men, one of whom was her own brother!

As to who the title, The Other Boleyn Girl, refers to; it varies. when Mary was the King's favorite, Anne was. when Anne was favored, Mary was.

is it spoilers if it's history? )
