The Young Victoria (2009)
Princess Victoria (Emily Blunt) waits for her uncle to die so she can be Queen. Chair kicking bad dude Mark Strong glowers and wants to control her. Victoria’s cousin Alfred is a fluffy haired puppy. Victoria’s mother is incessantly verbal. Various badly dressed and bewigged types stroll around. The unfortunate Lady Flora Hastings shows up. Victoria and Alfred have a romance - there is no John Brown yet to give her a good hard shag. Victoria is a petulant idiot, Alfred wants to do things and then the film just ends with various interesting things not depicted. This was dull and inaccurate. Fergie is a producer.
Best Lines:
“Princess Victoria of Kent.”
“Demure little head.”
“Agree to nothing.”
“You have played the game and lost.”
“I neither seek nor invite your advice.”

The Sword In The Stone (1963)
