Did they really completely reverse it in the movie or was this just poor editing?
In the movie, Anne and Mary's Uncle encourages Anne to bed King Henry, with the hopes of producing a male heir. While Anne was trying to woo him, he took an interest in the newly married Mary instead, and sent her and her new husband to Court, where he could have her whenever he wanted. This made Anne furious with jealousy. Of course, this isn't exactly how it happened.
