A must see for people who enjoy good film making

Rating: 10/10 (13 October 2007)

This is one of the first times I was compelled to see a film the first night out. I normally wait a while. I was excited about seeing this film as I enjoyed the first one with Cate Blanchet. My excitement was rewarded with excellent, beautiful cinematography, music, and superb acting. Kudos to Fiona Wier for her insightful casting in this film. The costumes are the most breathtaking I've seen in a long time.
I enjoyed the journey. I did find in the end that there maybe room for yet another part to this magnificent story of such a great Queen Mother. I hope yet that there is such an upcoming conclusion. Hat's off to good story telling, and not forgetting our humanness.
