On Nov. 17, 2006, Miramax unveiled the Helen Mirren-starrer in wide release.
One is so used to seeing movies and TV shows mock the British monarchy that it takes a while to adjust: This is a serious attempt to delve into the thinking and beliefs of several extremely well-known yet distant personalities. The actors do not look too much like their real-life counterparts; this is no Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum.
So, too, must Sheen’s Blair adapt to an evolving situation. Whereas he is a little weak-kneed in his first audience with the Queen, despite his wife Cherie’s well-known anti-royalist sentiments, he now exhales and begins to push none too gently. Prince Charles comes off as the voice of modernity in the family, but also a bit wimpy as he fears assassination in the days following his ex-wife’s death. The Queen Mum is the soul of comfort and tempered advice for her daughter, but the advice pertains to another era and is of no use. Only Prince Philip acts like a blustering fool. Press notes claim that Morgan had “access to an exceptional array of inside sources” for these royal portraits.
The film’s design is terrific as the formality in the Queen’s apartments contrast brilliantly to the rough-and-tumble casualness of Blair’s “Just call me Tony” office and household. —Read More About:
