Magnificent!

Rating: Null/10 (18 November 1998)

What a truly magnificent film! Cate Blanchett is absolutely mesmerising as the Virgin Queen who to the (alas - a slip I am sure) opening af Mozart´s Requiem, written a few hundred years AFTER Elizabeth lived - I am pretty sure it WAS Mozart´s Requiem - marries England.......
However, the still very beautiful and sensual Fanny Ardant almost steals the show as Marie de Guise.
