- Anglophiles will find much to admire in the 1978 production Disraeli, a comprehensive look at the political and personal lives of one of that nation's most important historical figures. Benjamin Disraeli (1804-1881), played by Ian McShane (Deadwood, The Golden Compass) in a bravura performance, was "an enigma even to myself," as he puts it.

Movie Reviews of Disraeli
Movie Review: McShane/DISRAELI.
Summary: 5 Stars
I am currently replacing all my VHS with DVD'S so when I saw this DVD version of Disraeli listed on amazon I jumped on it......I will be not viewing this immediately as I am a very busy person.....but I have a few really good, often historical, VHS tapes still that I am waiting for an opportunity to change over. I felt that this portrayal was the very best account of the life and times of this great british prime minister....without his guidance lord knows what Queen Victoria would have done as she depended entirely on the advice of her Ministers. Ian McShane played this part to the hilt....sometimes a little tongue in cheek...sometimes extremley seriously but I feel that this was also the escence of the man....loyal to both royalty and to the people of Britain during those challenging and growing years when Britian was like the U.S.A.leading the way and getting into everybody's business and trying to take over. Let us hope that history does not repeat itself! The casting was terrific and even the smallest players played their parts very well. The costumes were right on and the colors fantastic...any Anglophile would truly enjoy this and any lover of Ian McShane would get a kick out of him playing somebody so amazingly different from anything else he has played.
