Review of The Young Victoria (2009) by Beat C — 18 Jul 2010
Really, "young victoria" is just a lot of costumes in fond search of some drama. and finding precious little. after all, it's queen victoria, and her name is synonymous with stern moral rectitude. so in this case, the material may be regal but the rep is awfully dour.
Still, the gowns are undoubtedly colourful, the bowing and nodding are bowed and nodded with aplomb, and blunt's performance is engaging. nicely blending head-strong imperiousness with girlish vulnerability, it's the one jewel in the picture's otherwise barren crown.
