The Queen
2006
***
Director: Stephen Frears
Cast: Helen Mirren, Michael Sheen, James Cromwell, Helen McCrory, Sylvia Sims
Helen Mirren collected a well earned Oscar for her portrayal of Queen Elizabeth. The story focuses on a few weeks in 1997 when the Royal Family failed to respond to the tragic death of Princess Diana. It's a respectful, moving, funny and slightly trivial film.
