More on The Queen
Description from Wikipedia:
The Queen is a 2006 British based drama film directed by Stephen Frears, written by Peter Morgan, and starring Helen Mirren as the title role, HM Queen Elizabeth II. Released almost a decade after the event, the film depicts a fictional account of the immediate events following the death of Diana, Princess of Wales on 31 August 1997, itself coming 3 months after the coming to power of British Prime Minister Tony Blair's New Labour government.
The main plot focuses on the differing views in how to deal with the death of Diana. The Royal Family, while on their summer residence in Balmoral Castle, sees her death as a private affair, not to be treated as an official Royal death, in contrast with newly-elected Prime Minister Tony Blair and Diana's ex-husband Prince Charles, who attempt to reflect the public wish for an official expression of grief. Matters are further complicated by the media, royal protocol regarding Diana's official status, and wider issues about republicanism. The views of Diana's sons throughout the film are only portrayed through other characters.
The film earned critical and popular acclaim for both Mirren and Sheen, and some controversy as Mirren had previously refused a CBE in 1996, only to accept a DBE in 2003. Mirren praised the Queen in her Oscars acceptance speech, and was invited to dinner at Buckingham Palace in May 2007, only declining to attend due to filming commitments in the United States.
