À propos de ce film

Mary Queen of Scots explores the turbulent life of the charismatic Mary Stuart (Academy Award® nominee Saoirse Ronan). Queen of France at 16, widowed at 18, Mary defies pressure to remarry and instead returns to her native Scotland to reclaim her rightful throne. By birth, she also has a rival claim to the throne of Elizabeth I (Academy Award® nominee Margot Robbie), who rules as the Queen of England. Determined to rule as much more than a figurehead, Mary asserts her claim to the English throne, threatening Elizabeth’s sovereignty. Rivals in power and in love, the two Queens make very different choices about marriage and children. Betrayal, rebellion and conspiracies within each court imperil both Queens–driving them apart, as each woman experiences the bitter cost of power.

Notes et avis

Finally, filmmaking reaches modern generations! The story shows women being powerful and real, represents people of colour in influential roles, includes gender non-conformity, and lots of stuff we’ve been sorely missing on screen. People who are over thirty or male won’t like it but if you really miss tired exclusionary been-done archetypes just go watch any other film ever made.

Superficial storyline- acting is ordinary (I really like both of these actors but not in this movie). It’s a movie to watch if there is absolutely nothing else.

I love these actresses for the most part but in this movie it required mature talent. neither suited these roles. I was very disappointed watching it. their talents are not suited for this movie.
