The drama begins in 1579 and portrays Elizabeth--daughter of Henry VIII--during her later years. It exposes the conflict between her sense of duty and the instincts of her heart, her doomed affair with the Earl of Essex, and the struggles of a powerful and independent woman battling to survive in a male-dominated world. During her reign, Elizabeth became one of England's most admired monarchs, having resisted the Spanish Armada and having reunified the nation after it was divided by religious factionalism. Her successes and popularity led to the creation of the 'Virgin Queen' legend, but this drama, for the first time, delves beyond this myth and attempts to uncover the real woman behind the crown. Review: Mesmerising & Electric!!!This is "THE" best Elizabeth by far,and such good value for your money!! - What a film,what a film!! Wonderful acting by an actress who is top of the league,namely Helen Mirren.Then we have the man who for me made this film so powerful,so strong,so memorable.His name?? Jeremy Irons of course.This has to be one of his all time greats in his illustrious career. Elizabeth and Leicester,the beautiful romance that carries on through the ensuing centuries.Their devotion to each other throughout the first half was sheer electricity ~~ his jealousy,her tantrums,his banishment from court for 7 years,and then the wonderful scene of his re-instatement,the love that could not be broken. I loved the part played by the Duke of Anjou.We were expecting an ugly old man,bent and twisted,and,then voila! "What did we see!" but a handsome virile man in his prime who captivated Elizabeth and broke old Leicesters heart.But, as with all loves in Elizabeths life,marriage was not to be alas,as she waved him adieu from an awe inspiring scenery of how London and the Thames must have looked at that time. We must not forget the Scottish Queen,Mary ~~ the perennial thorn in Elizabeths side.How sad to see this devoutly Catholic Queen,despised by all,including her son James the 1st.Then the scene of Mary being decapitated.Dreadful,truly dreadful,especially when the axeman missed her neck and plunged the axe blade into poor Mary's skull instead. There was also plenty of Tudor brutality too,as we see men hung,drawn and quartered in the most gruesome way imagineable.The crowds apparently enjoying this awful spectacle. If you love Elizabethan history then this is a must.The background music is just right,absolutely perfect.It has the elevation of choral Cathedral music,down to heart rending,tenderness with violin strings of sorrow. I always say,a good film is exactly like a good book.You can watch it over and over again and yet,you never tire of it. A film to treasure. Review: Amazing!!! - This version gripped me more than Anne Marie Duff's "The Virgin Queen" (although the soundtrack to that is great) and I now really feel sorry for Elizabeth. Although of course materialistically she had the best standard of living than anyone in the country at that time but the heartache she must have felt just doing her honour to the country we cannot imagine. There are very graphic execution scenes in this film. But we have to remember that the Elizabethan's saw death everyday. Public executions, public torture and to go back to that era fully as shocking and gory as it is for us in the 21st century, it was an everyday thing for anyone living in the 16th century. I was taught at school that Elizabeth 1 was heartless, ruthless and basically a nasty piece of work but after watching Mirren's take on her I think the complete opposite and I think anyone else watching this will feel the same. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000EU1M4E | | Actors | Helen Mirren, Hugh Dancy, Jeremy Irons, Patrick Malahide, Toby Jones | | Aspect Ratio | 16:9 - 1.77:1 | | Best Sellers Rank | 12,586 in DVD & Blu-ray ( See Top 100 in DVD & Blu-ray ) 2,605 in Television (DVD & Blu-ray) 4,260 in Drama (DVD & Blu-ray) | | Customer reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (598) | | Director | Tom Hooper | | Is discontinued by manufacturer | No | | Language | English (Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo) | | Manufacturer reference | 6867441002192 | | Media Format | PAL | | Number of discs | 1 | | Package Dimensions | 18.03 x 13.76 x 1.48 cm; 0.28 g | | Producers | Barney Reisz, George Faber | | Release date | 17 April 2006 | | Run time | 3 hours and 43 minutes | | Studio | 4dvd | ## Images ![Elizabeth I - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61qEUNKFkHL.jpg) ![Elizabeth I - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61IlFggsY-L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mesmerising & Electric!!!This is "THE" best Elizabeth by far,and such good value for your money!! *by M***Y on 18 June 2013* What a film,what a film!!

I think I have watched all things about Elizabeth I. I have certainly watched and own most films produced in the last 50 years. Also watched many many documentaries too! And read large books!!. I think this performance by Helen Mirren is 'The Best'!! She is able to portray a picture of an older Queen who is mortal and yet have the confidence of one who has had to portray herself as immortal for all of her life!! In the poem she wrote which is quoted in the film on the Duke of Anjou's final departure back to France, 'I freeze and yet am burned' 'My care is like my shadow....It flies when I pursue it. She says how she feels. Over and over in the film are little dewdrops which give you an incite into Queen Elizabeths' life. Impressive attention to detail and a close atmosphere created by showing the rush matting in the palaces and very low ceilings which gives an oppressive feeling. I come from Plymouth and have been to Sir Francis Drakes' house many times as a child and older, a beautifully preserved Tudor/Elizabethan Estate at' Buckland Abbey', Yelverton on the edge of Dartmoor Devon.This film reminded me of it. Drakes Drum is there too! In the second part Hugh Dancy is a real treat as the Earl of Essex. In the first part Jeremy Irons as the Earl Leicester is perfect. All acting extremely well done. Also the sets. If you want to watch a film that gets fairly near your imagination as to what times were really like then this is the one to watch!!
