WORTH CONSUMING!
I was very interested by that movie for some reason, and that interest was fueled when Helen Mirren won the Oscar for best acting. I finally bought it really cheap, used, at a local renting shop.
I really liked the movie! I can’t say I’m really interested in the royal family, I don’t care so much about gossip and stuff, but nonetheless it was really interesting to see the reality the Queen is faced with. The movie was well-done, the landscapes were beautiful and it was in general a good glance of life when you’re a royal (I guess!). I really recommend it.

I agree.
I think alot of what turns me off about the “British Royal Family” stuff is that it is so “tabloidy.” This movie is a very tasteful attempt to portray the character of a woman who has been in the spotlight ceaselessly since her adolescence. Kind of like “you know her, but you never really knew her” type thing.

Thanks for the comment! It’s nice to know somebody agrees. I also think you are completely right.
