Die Queen: Directed by Stephen Frears. With Helen Mirren, James Cromwell, Alex Jennings, Roger Allam. After the death of Princess Diana, Queen Elizabeth II struggles with her reaction to a sequence of events nobody could have predicted.

“It was Meryl Streep no less to call Helen Mirren u0026quot;an acting Godu0026quot; and she wasnu0026#39;t kidding. I saw u0026quot;The Queenu0026quot; again last night, a year after the hype, the awards and the masses of superlatives thrown Helen Mirrenu0026#39;s way and you know what? It was all richly deserved. Her performance got an extra something along the year and I believe it will continue to grow like most wonderful true things. Helen Mirren is not an actress who u0026quot;dissappearsu0026quot; behind a character , no, she is in total control and thatu0026#39;s what makes her creation so moving. The illusion is fueled by her own conviction – the characteru0026#39;s as well as the actressu0026#39;s. Last night I wondered, during the Queen and her Prime Ministeru0026#39;s walk, how did the real Elizabeth II reacted to this portrait. Iu0026#39;m sure sheu0026#39;s seen it and Iu0026#39;m sure that she must agree that nobody could have done it better or more fairly.”
