    It really is an excellent movie. Helen Mirren was asked in an interview if she expected a call from HM The Queen. She just laughed and said no, not really. A news article is reporting now that she's to be invited to tea with HM. If that's true then I assume the movie was well received at the palace. Ms. Mirren has portrayed ER I and ER II amazingly well and I understand that next she's doing Mary, Queen of Scots.

    I saw it on a transcontinental flight (so not the best quality picture or sound), but was still hugely impressed!

    Looking forward to the DVD's release...

    Helen Mirren is a great actress, but she is probably a bit too old the play Mary who was executed at 44 years of age.

    Well at the time of her execution she had aged considerably and her real hair had turned grey but maybe the younger Mary could be a problem for her.
