My favorite version

Attention to details is one reason I like this film best. Even the soundtrack is wonderfully matched to the movie, with some interesting vocals. I have seen several other films on Elizabeth I, but this is my favorite.

I agree w/all very well done.

Excellent acting, costumes, and true to the time period. Far much better than any hollywood version. What I also loved was the spiritual side of Elizabeth was not hidden, her passion for her God and country was her motivating duty as Queen.

Fantastic Historical Account

I love this movie! If you are at all interested in an accurate take on royalty, you will love it. There is no hollywood gloss on this program. It shows the royals as they would have been during this time period. (For instance, the characters dont have sparkling white teeth and a full head of hair when they are supposed to be elderly people in the sixteenth century!) I absolutely recommend it.

We Enjoyed This Historical DVD

Although the story of the Virgin Queen was troubling, my wife and I enjoyed the way the DVD was casted and the story was constructed. We also learned much about a time in Englands past.

Another portrayal

Another view of a story well know. Enjoyed it. Like Glenda Jacksons portrayal much better - showed more fire and true descendant of Henry the VIII.

Media Reviews

"Queen has it all: politics, pageantry, passion." -- The Boston Globe

"A superb production, beautifully written, lavishly costumed." -- The San Diego Union-Tribune

"British drama at its best." -- Gannett News Service

"Now, this is the way history should be told, full of passion and intrigue and drama! Lush in every possible way--visually, emotionally, even musically--this Masterpiece Theatre-aired British production, is an absolutely riveting retelling of the reign of the most famous daughter of Henry VIII. . . Sure to be catnip to both Anglophiles and armchair history buffs, this is highly recommended." -- Video Librarian

"... Anne-Marie Duff is magnificent..." - San Francisco Chronicle
