Realistic

Rating: 10/10 (1 May 1999)

This film portrayed Elizabeth I in a very realistic way. Most if not all of its content are based on true facts of history. It gives the people a different aspect of politics in the 1500s by using actual quotes like the one Elizabeth I said when she heard of her succession and the vividness and powerful image of the characters. This film should have won best picture at the Oscars. It is politics, conspiracy and intrigue at its best.
