challenges for the Queen

I am not sure how many others like or understand this movie, even it's simply plotted. The difficult part is for those whose country has not been fully modernized in social institutions to comprehend that symbolizing the monarchy power when you are not young, far from perfection , is not an easy job. Being a Queen is about clarifying the mind, claiming the territory and being able to allow yourself to like something, and such tasks would be multiple times more difficult when while you are the queen of the country taking Constitution monarch system, but at the same time the country applying your name to rule one-fourth of the planet population. The silly beginning contrasts to the coming up turbulence and challenges.

    So if the male protagonist is not handsome, then there will be no LOL PS. The textbook-like production is well-made, the killing time is good, and it is very suitable for the current situation :)

    The new film from Oscar-winning producer Stephen Frears tells the saga between Queen Victoria and Indian servant and confidant Abdullah. The quality of the finished film is average. What I like is that Queen Victoria, played again by Judi Dench, is still outstanding. What I hate is that there are too many old routines and exaggerated and sensational scenes in the film.

Victoria & Abdul quotes

  • Queen Victoria: I am cantankerous, greedy, fat, I am perhaps disagreeably attached to power, but I am anything but insane!

  • Sir Henry Ponsonby: Breakfast with the Royal Princes of Belgium. 11:00, an audience with the Sultan of Dubai, where Her Majesty will be presented with the Diamond of Oojay. Garden party where Her Majesty will receive Oscar II, King of Sweden and Norway, again, and Queen Liliuokalani.

    Queen Victoria: Who on Earth is she?

    Sir Henry Ponsonby: A monarch and, uh, sole Queen Regnant of the Kingdom of Hawaii, Your Majesty. Uh, she has composed a song for you on the ukulele. Uh, but we have managed to put her off. Then you will eat with the Prime Minister and at 7:00, the banquet in the state dining room.

    Dr. Reid: And your movements, Your Majesty?

    Queen Victoria: Nothing to speak of, Dr. Reid.

    Dr. Reid: Not even during the day?

    Queen Victoria: We last moved on Sunday evening.

    Dr. Reid: I fear the celebratory dinners are taking their toll, Your Majesty. Might I suggest some Benger's mixture?

    Queen Victoria: I refuse to eat Benger's. It's baby food.

    Dr. Reid: But it is imperative, Your Majesty, that the Royal Colon receives a little roughage.

    Queen Victoria: Anything else?

    Sir Henry Ponsonby: Um, now, was Your Majesty pleased with the mohur?

    Queen Victoria: What?

    Sir Henry Ponsonby: With the mohur, the ceremonial coin. Uh, presented by the two Indian servants.

    Queen Victoria: I thought the tall one was terribly handsome.
