.PLOT
Two faiths, two empires, two rulers - colliding in 1588. 
Papist Spain wants to bring down the heretic Elizabeth. 
Philip is building an armada but needs a rationale to attack. 
With covert intrigue, Spain sets a trap for the Queen and her 
principal secretary, Walsingham, using as a pawn Elizabeth's 
cousin Mary Stuart, who's under house arrest in the North. 
The trap springs, and the armada sets sail, to rendezvous 
with French ground forces and to attack. During these months, 
the Virgin Queen falls in love with Walter Raleigh, keeping 
him close to court and away from the sea and America. 
Is treachery or heroism at his heart? Does loneliness await
her passionate majesty?

.NOTES
A lot of dark scenes in this movie. Despite the x264 tweaks, the encode 
wasn't getting enough bitrate for those scenes, and thus dark areas 
were often encoded containing brown pixel patches, or getting blockiness!
x264 doesn't handle darks/fades properly (fade-compensate made things worse),
and making x264 zones for such cases is a very tedious manual process.
I decided to write a tool to automate the creation of zones for dark scenes. 
In this case, 117 zones were created... in a few seconds!
