Kak Wayang : Elizabeth (Movie 1998)

More than a year I haven't update this blog. I was too busy with life and some other things... ^__^ .

Last weekend I was alone at home..and spent my time with "Elizabeth" movie on DIVA Astro. Cate Blanchet play a role as Elizabeth. Later I found out that Cate has won several awards for her prtrayal of Elizabeth. She was nominated i 7 categories including Best Actress. She also received the prize of Best Makeup.

And later I learned that "Elizabeth" is a 1998 biographical film written by Michael Hirst, directed by Shekhar Kapur.

The story is about the popular and intelligence woman Queen of England "Queen Elizabeth 1" a daughter of King Henry VIII and his second wife Anne Boleyn. Her mother was executed when Elizabeth was two years and eight months. She also was imprisoned in the Tower of London by her half-sister.

For me she was a strong woman, smart and clever in making decision. She has many good and experience Councillors but she is...really has strong determination and strength. She deals with various threats to her reign including her. Imagine ...she  strongly survive in the society controlled by man & conspiracy and complot.

She did not marry but has a secret affair with her childhood sweetheart, Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester (handsome mamat ni). But sadly when later she find out that he is married .

Tu lah...actually ngeri tgk life zaman tu...tak berani nak tulis
