My favorite Elizabeth...

[sarahbellem]

Right, so Trystan reminded me that I haven't posted my favorite QEI... Glenda Jackson is probably at the top of the pile, but I'm really attached to Helen Mirren's portrayal in Elizabeth I. I gave Trystan a copy to watch, thinking she'd dig it, but she dissed it (I still love you, Trystan, and I forgive you. Tee hee!), because it does play up

I just saw this version, and I really liked it! I thought the acting was well done (even the drama queen episodes ;) ), the costumes were lovely, Jeremy Irons was fabulous as usual...I could have done without the wince -inducing beheading of Mary Queen of Scots....Yowch!! My son, however, thought it was awesome and made me rewind so he could see it again, the little sicko!

I've never seen the Glenda Jackson version, but have heard of it. I will have to put it on my "to watch" list.
