An extraordinary masterpiece of work by Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role nominee, Cate Blanchett.

Rating: 10/10 (25 March 2000)

This film was nominated for 7 Academy Awards that says it all. It is such a great look at the life of Queen Elizabeth I that it is unreal. This film is certainly one of the best films of 1998. It is a certain classic in the making. I give it 10 stars.
