Too bad it's mostly lied. Elizabeth's treatment of the sailors who defeated the spanish armada was nothing short of criminal. She, as every aristocrat, had nothing but contempt for the common people
Yeah that was great. Her uncertainty, anxiety, and emotion while rehearsing. And then she carried through beautifully with conviction and humor to win them over.

It's hard to imagine Cate Blanchett living an ordinary human existence outside of her movie roles. She has played benevolently commanding characters, malevolently commanding characters, manipulators, dopes who try to manipulate, and in every role, we're on her side.
Elizabeth I Regina is, in my mind, one of THE definitive examples of a truly great monarch. She mastered the art of the regal display. She was commanding and dignified, elegant and glorious, and indisputably in command. Few monarchs harnessed the power and prestige of their crown to the level she did. She listened to the counsel of her ministers but was not dominated by them. She had her father’s fire and her grandfather’s calculating guile. And for her efforts, she is now a legend, a titan of history, and rightfully so.
I totally agree - the sign of a great leader is the quality of individuals they inspire to follow and be loyal to them - Walsingham, Raleigh, Drake etc were all very impressive individuals in their own right. I also think Elizabeth II - although a very different personality in a different age and constitution - had a similar love for and sense of duty to the people.
Elizabeth I crafted the modern nation and government. The more I read of her, the more in awe of her intelligence, strength and logic. She didn't give into her emotions, and was a step ahead of the men around her. The smartest thing she did was remain single.
She did have a bit of a temper, I believe, but that's understandable since I'm pretty sure she'd have gotten that from both her parents. I like how something she says here plays into that whole marriage situation: "Some say France, others Spain, and some cannot abide foreigners at all. So I'm not sure how best to please you unless I married one of each."
@ShaneKilpatrick-i4t Having watched the scramble that her cousin, Mary Queen of Scots faced in finding a husband, marrying and trying to maintain status as a monarch even as the religion and state had women as subservient, Elizabeth was not about to do that. She had a tenuous claim on the throne to start with. Also, sh was a Protestant. There isn't a cult of Mary for Protestants as there is for Catholics.
It still annoys me that he won the Best Supporting Actor Oscar for Shakespeare in Love and not this, don’t get me wrong SiL is not dreadful but it is a painfully British comedy & not a patch on Elizabeth! It does make one wonder how many ficuses Weinstein f*cked in order to promote SiL over this superlative film…they are equally historically inaccurate but Elizabeth is exquisite, almost on a par with La Reine Margot!
She represented a new breed of Australian actresses at the time who would go on to achieve greatness. Elizabeth was Cate Blanchett's first big role, and she nailed it. Her and her husband are directors of the Sydney Theatre Company and their work there has been magnificent.
It's a shame Australia that acting classes are unaffordable, she stated she'd never have been able to be the benefactor of a degree to start her career today.
I must admit, this is one of the scenes that solidified Cate Blanchett in my mind as a wonderful actress. The movie itself may be on the melodramatic side, flowing through certain details for the benefit of Hollywood. But nonetheless, Cate Blanchett is one superb actress.
Apparently that scene wasn't in the script. Shekhar Kapur sprung the idea on Blanchett the day before it was filmed and she spent the evening reading up on the Act of Uniformity and then ab lib it.
I was obsessed with this movie and was a fan of her early on. I think she is a brilliant actor she just makes her characters so believable which is probably part of the definition of acting but still she is a master at it. I loved the baroque music in this film too. Do you recall the scene when her ladies in waiting are snipping her hair and applying thick white makeup over her skin? The hauntingly beautiful melody of Mozart's requiem introitus in the background while she is essentially de-feminizing herself to become a monarch still gives me chills. She sacrificed all that made her a woman and made her Elizabeth to become the representation of a single Monarch.
Stellar cast, all of them excellent! Attenborough, Blanchet, Geoffrey Rush, to mention a few. Different style to Shakespeare in Love, we get the best of different worlds ❤ my 3 pence worth 😂
So what did you do until now? Plot failed revenge attempts for more than 25 years, and now you are mad because you are a failure to even think you should get over such trivial matters? Sad.
The sequel was just as great. There was talk of a third and final film some time ago. I would love to see that come true. Cate is one of the best actresses ever!
This was an OSCAR performance and creation without any doubt for anyone who has eyes , ears and heart...In fact entire production is simply a MASTERPIECE!!! Thank YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can’t express enough my love for Cate Blanchett in these movies. She’s SO regal. The costumes are perfect and as someone obsessed with historical fashion, the Elizabeth movies were visually delectable. The movies sparked my interest in the Tudors and Elizabeth’s reign, and I ended up doing a ton of research projects about her in college. I’m so glad so many people love it as much as I do.
1997 was a fantastic year for movies. The Thin Red Line, Elizabeth, Saving Private Ryan, Shakespeare in Love, Life is Beautiful, The Truman Show and - totally overlooked at the Oscars - Run Lola Run ... Whatever you prefer over the others is a matter of personal taste. It can't be denied that Elizabeth is a masterpiece though. It is absolutely incredible what English cinema can put out when every now and then it assembles a perfect cast of world-class actors (I know some of them aren't British, but nevertheless). That's the power of theater tradition that started with the Age of Elizabeth.
Stephen Gardiner had in fact died some 3 years before Elizabeth ascended the throne. That doesn’t take away anything from Blanchett’s superb performance.
Elizabeth I had the skills of a top-notch orator, state prosecutor, PR / propaganda manager, and political tactician -- skills which were honed from childhood, especially during that insane time she was almost semi-secretly executed by powerful nobles and clergy who were trying to puppeteer her older sister Mary into approving her death at their hands. She learned to read people and discern the hidden decisions and reasons behind what they did or said. She learned to pay attention to even the smallest details that could change outcomes -- even little things like making people wait while she wrote long letters, to postpone her arrest or incarceration to yet another day, or dressing and talking a certain way, to generate positive word-of-mouth -- all that was what kept her from getting killed in a patriarchal society with men grasping for the throne. This movie may be a wildly inaccurate fictionalized version of her life, but I don't mind, LOL. It captures Elizabeth's wily nature and how skillfully she moved Parliament in this moment.
I'm jealous. You get to view it for the first time. I've watched it about 10 times (specific scenes dozens of times). I still love it, though it's not like that first time.
This scene here was brilliant and strategic made... All the men wore black behind their black clothes was their insecurities, infidelities, hidden vendetta, toxic masculinities, overzealot, etcetera while she wore red behind the red gown was her strength, pain, love, control, independence, and intelligence, making her untouchable red jewelry ♥️ ✨️.
After seeing her in this movie and being blown away by her per performance, and she didn’t win Oscar. I’ve never taken the Oscars seriously ever since.
"And though you have had, and may have, many mightier and wiser princes sitting in this seat, yet you never had, nor shall have any that will love you better." - Queen Elizabeth I of England
Elizabeth I is remembered as an almost legendary figure because of the fact she never married, consolidated power, and kept it her entire life. She knew how to play the game and played it well. Had she married, I can guarantee we wouldn’t be talking about her today in the way that we do. She’d be a footnote is history like her elder sister. Elizabeth I and Queen Cleopatra VII are 2 of history’s smartest Queens and deserve the respect and admiration they still receive to this day.
Dear diary, I was today year's old when I realised that Doctor Who guest star, Donald Pelmear who got a large role in the Time Warrior was reduced in this scene to a background bishop in the cellar.
Elizabeth I must have been so nervous in front of people that want nothing but to see her fail and be a subservient wife and mother. I am glad I saw this movie, it made me admire Elizabeth I more and more. And how she roasted that guy that had 2 divorces, go girl! I really love this outfit too.
Blanchett was spectacular, as she often is. This excerpt from the film proves yet again what I "believe": how much simpler and safer the world would be without religion.
Eventually Queen Elizabeth I did not decide only on one church. Her father, Henry VIII had already created the Church of England, but LIz let both churches spin their webs, and thus stopped religious war in England.
In English, it is not possible for a noun to modify an adjective, and accordingly there is no such phrase as "Oscar Nominated Performance"; perhaps what is meant is "Oscar-nominated Performance".
I have always admired Queen Elizabeth 1 as the only monarch that ever sat on the throne as a huge savour of our history. Had she not been queen history would have been changed very drastically in the coming centuries. Even today we must all THANK HER FOR HER UTMOST SKILL , .I am very sure that when i go i will call upon her in heaven. GOD SAVE ELIZABETH 1 memory.God if only Henry knew what a glorious monarch she was to become...he would bite his tongue .I prefer Glenda Jackson as Elizabeth 1.
they don't make scenes like this anymore. so much nuance here. she looks insecure on the surface, but she has the power and the purpose. She has the intellect. Men follow her afterwards Great dialogue and speech. Compare this to the in your face scenes of 2007 one. That one is a good movie too but this scene here is something else
She was our Gloriana. Her reign marked the dawning of a new era. The beginning of England's greatness and that of the future British Empire. God Save the Queen!

Elizabeth I Regina is, in my mind, one of THE definitive examples of a truly great monarch. She mastered the art of the regal display. She was commanding and dignified, elegant and glorious, and indisputably in command. Few monarchs harnessed the power and prestige of their crown to the level she did. She listened to the counsel of her ministers but was not dominated by them. She had her father’s fire and her grandfather’s calculating guile. And for her efforts, she is now a legend, a titan of history, and rightfully so.
she was no saint, though. Many good things, but also...
I totally agree - the sign of a great leader is the quality of individuals they inspire to follow and be loyal to them - Walsingham, Raleigh, Drake etc were all very impressive individuals in their own right.

Her voice, her voice. It so excellent and she commands it wholly. This is my favourite scene in one of my favourite movies, by my favourite actress
I've always loved Geoffrey Rush's Walsingham's subtle look of admiration for his Queen.
I love how Walsingham trolls that Bishop at the end of the scene, lol.
Same here!!! Everybody absolutely killed it in this movie. Top notch cast
Walsingham and the Queen was the same age, they born in the same year so he understood what the Queen was thinking.

This is one of my favorite movies and Kate is Great!!
Can anyone see the resemblance to the playing of Elizabeth R by Glenda jackson RIP wondered if Blanchet watched Jacksons excellent portrayal
Glenda Jackson played a grown up, fully developed Queen Elizabeth. Maybe that's why I find her portrayal different.
Loved this movie, her acting on point
"By five your grace, by five". That is sweet revenge for calling her "Bastard Queen". This is some serious acting.
I've never seen this film, but I notice the great camera work... then I googled it and, yes, at least an Oscar for the cinematography. :-)
I thought this was a fantastic film…. Every performance is wonderful but Blanchett truly shines….
Made by a Bollywood director, no less. Watched this in the theater and was absolutely stunned by Blanchett.
Cate Blanchett and Meryl Streep are the two greatest actresses alive

2:44 Queen Elizabeth addresses the problem of dual citizenship circa 1558
