Movie Reviews of Mrs. Brown
Movie Review: A cure for those in perpetual mourning...
Summary: 5 Stars
Judi Dench in another great performance, this time playing Queen Victoria, whose friendship with her dead husband's valet, the outspoken Scotsman John Brown, helps her to overcome her continuing grief over becoming a widow. She needed to get out into the fresh air, and he forced her to do it even though he was her servant and she was royalty. A nice character study of what might have been more than a friendship. Well played.
Movie Review: A little known Victorian history
Summary: 5 Stars
Mrs. Brown A wonderful production that explores a little known part of history. The ever grieving widow, Victoria Regina, has a long lasting friendship with her groomsman. The country's reaction is as expected when the head of the Royal Family does not comply with accepted standards of widowhood and head of state.Movie Review: Mrs. Brown
Summary: 5 Stars
"Mrs. Brown" beautifully recounts one of the most unconventional, unlikely romances in history. The close and affectionate friendship that grows between Victoria and lower-class Highlander Brown scandalized Britain then, and will fascinate audiences now. Judi Dench is glorious to watch in a role that gilded her path to Hollywood, and brilliant comic Connolly shows he can act with the best.Movie Review: simply marvelous
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this a fine depiction of the historic friendship between Queen Victoria and Mr. Brown. Judi Dench is outstanding as the grieving Queen and Billy Connolly is absolutely magnificent as the fiercely protective Scot who is determined to help her "live" (beyond the death of Prince Albert, her husband). Equally impressive performance by (Sir) Antony Sher as Disraeli.Movie Review: Very enjoyable
Summary: 5 Stars
Without benefit of technical knowledge on moviemaking or acting I can't comment on this film from those perspectives. Howerver, the film held my attention and the subject matter was of interest. The cast includes a number of familiar names which is what drew me to the film initially and I was certainly not disappointed.
