I only watched one movie on my trip from Australia to the US: The Queen.
I had wanted to see this film for quite some time, so I was delighted to see it as an on demand movie on the plane. I really enjoyed the film. I thought the storyline and its insights were fantastic, and Helen Mirrin was wonderful.
However, I found the film a little difficult to watch, just because the British Royal Family is so often photographed. I found myself constantly comparing the characters in the film to the images I had of them in my mind. I found it very hard to let go and get lost in the film. I think the images of Diana (which were the real thing, and not played by an actor) didn’t help in this respect either.
