Review of The Queen (2006) by Vero S — 28 Feb 2009

Wonderful. This is a very special movie, and I think the reason is that it shows very tragic events which moved thousands of people around the globe in such a simple way. Mirren's performances is flawless, really, which is why it's so effective to show everything throught the queen's cold eyes.

It's a beautiful film as well, the scene where she sees a deer and tries to save him from the hunters is amazing, it captivated me so much. The direction and script are wonderful, but there's something beyond that that moves me in this film, and I can't really put my finger on it.

I guess I don't really have to to say this movie is brilliant.
