The Queen
註釋"The Queen presents an intimate portrait of Queen Elizabeth II during the crisis caused by the death of Princess Diana in a car crash in Paris. While the British public was overwhelmed with grief at the death of the 'People's Princess', the Royal Family was markedly unresponsive - a reaction which almost brought down the monarchy". "Queen Elizabeth finds herself in a maelstrom of emotions, as the new prime minister, Tony Blair, tries to convince her to satisfy 'her people' with an expression of grief, while at the same time the conflicts within her own family threaten to engulf her". "The Queen is a portrait of a woman whose every waking hour has been guided by protocol, and who finds herself in a situation where everything she has based her life on no longer applies."--Jacket
