Plot: Helen Mirren has a wonderful performance playing Queen Elizabeth the II. In the wake of both Tony Blair’s election and the death of Princess Diana, this movie goes behind the scenes of those moments. it shows the missteps of the Queen in dealing with Diana’s death and Tony Blair’s helpful hand in dealing with the heart on the sleeve of the modern age.
