Mary Queen of Scots
(2018)
Directed by Josie
Rourke this film based on real events stars Saoirse Ronan and Margot
Robbie. During the reign of Elizabeth I both England and Scotland
face succession crisis surrounding the Scottish queen Mary.
Taking a fascinating
historical period this is a pretty interesting film but gets a little
caught up at times in imposing modern views on sex on the story.
Despite historical inaccuracies this is still a good look at two
women trying to hold onto power in an era completely dominated by
men. Worth watching but be prepared to take elements with a pinch of
salt.
3/5
