The Queen, 2006
What a hard letter. This is probably the only film on the list I’ve only seen once. It’s a good film. Dame Helen Mirren won the Best Actress Academy Award for her performance. Here’s an IMDB synopsis:
In 1997, after the death of Princess Diana in a car accident in Paris, the reluctant Queen (Dame Helen Mirren) and the Establishment do not accept to honor the “People’s Princess” as a member of the Royal Family. However, the public and the media question the utility of the monarchy and the just-elected Prime Minister Tony Blair (Michael Sheen) advises the Queen to make a public speech mourning the loss of Diana.

Perfection. There’s not a lot to say here. It’s definitely worth a watch. I’ll have to rewatch it soon.
