Being the occasion of Her Majesty's 70th jubilee, I watched this 'tribute' in the hopes that I could celebrate the many accomplishments that the Queen has achieved in the last 70 years. Instead all I saw was some cobbled together hatchet job that all but trashes on the tradition of monarchy.

Instead of celebrating such a milestone, director. Roger Mitchell tries to imply that there is little or nothing to celebrate.

He intersperses pictures of people waving Union flags at the silver jubilee in 1977 with people waving the same flag at right wing rallies as if to imply that pride in nation and tradition is in itself a fascist act.

He also cuts between stock footage of the Queen in all her splendour shaking hands with celebrates at gala performances and state occasions and the squalid depictions of post war inner city Britain and the hardships her subjects faced in a bid to show some kind of disconnect between her and the country of which she is head of state.

Queen or President, King or dictator really doesn't matter. All these things would have been caused by government policy over the years and would not be the fault of a Head of State, especially one who dedicated her life to serve all her dominions, selflessly, faithfully and honourably.

He shows The Queen being jeered in Dresden as well as the public outcry at her perceived lack of feeling over the death of Diana, Princess of Wales, despite the tradition and protocol that would have been applied in such circumstances. He then commits the crowning indignity by equating this tragedy and subsequent public dissatisfaction with the storming of royal palaces, communist revolutions and the murder of the Russian royal family in 1918 with a picture of Lenin front and centre.

This has been made, not from a position of respect for the Queen or her longevity, but to push another social and class agenda....that most left leaning film makers have an annoying knack for.

Roger Mitchell is no longer with us and it's such a shame that this posthumous 'work' will now be an 'epitaph of shame', especially given that he was the director of Notting Hill. He didn't even attempt to thinly disguise his metaphors, nor his contempt for tradition or the Queen as everything good she has ever done or tried to do, he has linked with tragedies, catastrophe's and social strife.

Do not watch this.

OMG. The cutting from HRM to Elizabeth Taylor is but one example of what can only be described as a bizarre and undignified look at Queen Elizabeth. It's like a bad dream. Did I mention the part with the Mona Lisa wearing a chef's hat? What?

And it only gets worse from there.

First, any moron who thinks this is a publicity movie for the purposes of propaganda is exactly that...a moron. I'm an American. For all intent and purposes I am clueless in matters regarding the British monarchy. This film is a cleverly produced education. An insightful look at the life Queen Elizabeth II. If you're a fanatic for historical documentaries, as I am, you will absolutely enjoy Elizabeth: A Portrait in Part(s). Of course, if you're a member of the moronic ilk who believe that the hypocrites Harry and Meghan are heroic figures then you'll probably not appreciate this movie. No worries maybe someone will someday determine to waste time, energy and money producing a tribute to those halfwits. Long live the Queen.
