A masterpiece! The Brits have done it again.

Rating: 10/10 (21 February 2007)

Watching the movie keeps you wondering what is really going on in the mind of some people. Though we will never know the real thoughts and words of people who are portrayed in this movie, like Prince Phillip, I do believe that the way Prince Charles talks in this movie is very close to the truth. No matter what you may think about a monarchy (I am glad we have a completely different monarchy in the Netherlands), if you simply look at the way this movie is made, the high level of acting, cinema-photography, make-up, music, editing, it is a masterpiece that rarely comes from Hollywood. The Brits have done it again. Though I doubt it will receive the Oscar for Best movie, it does deserve it though.
I left the theater very much impressed, not the least with the knowledge that a Queen, just as myself, is only human.
