Bette Davis does well to drag this donkey over the hill
29 July 2021
A passable effort for this type of historical drama. Although the scenes are a bit paint by numbers. The laying down of the cape for Lizzy I to tromp on looks like it was filmed on the set of Gilligan's Island. The confected emnity between Raleigh and Sir Eyepatch also lacked fizz. But the thing that I found most baffling was the way QEI walked around as if something large and pointy had lodged in a place best not mentioned in polite company. What method school acting technique was she channeling?

She scuttled about like a severely constipated John Wayne. Or a Dalek at a fancy dress ball.

Watch it if you have nothing better to do.
