Her Majesty Mrs Brown (Wide Screen)
Stars: Judi Dench, Billy Connolly, Ann Sheridan, Geoffrey Palmer, Richard Pasco, David WestheadDirector: John Madden
Summary: After the death of her husband, Prince Albert, Queen Victoria retires from public life to her country house on the Isle of Wight. There she is consoled by her late husband's friend, Highlander John Brown. Court jealousies and political intrigue follow in this powerful and moving film.
While grieving for her dead husband, Prince Albert, Queen Victoria falls under the healthy influence of John Brown, the unapologetically brash Scottish manservant who oversees the royal retreat at Balmoral. When the two become close friends--and perhaps even physical intimates--the royal family and the nation reel from the scandal. Dench garnered a Golden Globe as Best Actress for her portrayal of the title character. Academy Award Nominations: 2, including Best Actress--Judi Dench, and Best Makeup.

A romantic drama, this John Madden film looks at the relationship between Queen Victoria and John Brown, a commoner who, though a servant, becomes her closest friend and confidant. As such, he proves the catalyst to bring her back into public life and out of her private mourning for the late Prince Albert. But the closeness of their friendship sets tongues wagging about the impropriety of what appears to be an affair between queen and commoner (an issue the film never directly addresses). Mrs Brown's charm lies in the flinty give-and-take between the wonderfully starchy Judi Dench as Victoria and the robust Scottish comedian Billy Connolly, here playing it straight as a strong-willed Scotsman who comes to enjoy the power he wields by virtue of having the queen's ear. Antony Sher is also striking as Prime Minister Disraeli, in a performance that all but shimmers with unspoken malice. --Marshall Fine
