'Mary Queen of Scots': Shine and decline . . .

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

The tragic story of Mary Stuart who came home to Scotland and was immediately beset by intrigue. She could trust no one, not her brother, her husband, her counselors, or her cousin Elizabeth.

Nicely written and beautifully filmed Saoirse Ronan absolutely shined as Mary. Not only as a confident actress but as a blossoming beauty in her own right. Her Mary was assured and royal until the very end. Unfortunately, Margot Robbie's talent seems to lie with Harley Quinn and her beauty too racy for Queen Elizabeth. I'm puzzled at her choice for QER.

The film and art direction was spot on and one feels a bit more educated about the intrigues of the 1560s.

4.5 wonks for Ronan and a nicely told story
2 wanks for UN casting out of place in the 1560s.
