About the film. Translate into Russian.

Released almost a decade after the event, the film depicts a fictional account of the immediate events following the death of
Diana, Princess of Wales on 31 August 1997.
The main plot focuses on the differing views in how to deal with the death of Diana. The Royal Family, while on their summer
residence at Balmoral Castle, sees her death as a private affair, not to be treated as an official Royal death, in contrast with newly
appointed Prime Minister Tony Blair and Diana's ex-husband Prince Charles, who attempt to reflect the public wish for an official
expression of grief. Matters are further complicated by the media, royal protocol regarding Diana's official status, and wider issues
about republicanism.

Review:

I never thought I'd get choked up over a movie about the stuffy upper-crust of the British monarchy, but then along came The
Queen. This film offers an incisive and utterly persuasive glimpse behind the scenes of recent history. The fictionalized script
expands on these historical truths. We see not only the inner corridors of power, but also sense the inner workings of the royal
mind. I thought this movie was going to be really boring, but it was really an intriguing retrospective about the royal family...
Demystifies Diana and shows a woman who has come through the War and the Depression but still finds the strength to grow and
change.It was really well done and worth the time and money.
