Diana 2013


Diana


     This film covers the last two years of Diana, Princess of Wales.  It is based on the book Diana: Her Last Love by Kate Snell.  This was the time of her divorce and she started a secret relationship with Pakistani heart surgeon Hasnat Khan.  There are some scenes of Diana with Dodi Fayed.    
      I’m not sure what is truth and what is fiction in this film?  The basis is the theory that Diana is the Queen of Hearts.  Nothing is shown of Prince Charles, Queen Elizabeth II and other royals.  Her sons are shown from a distance in one scene.  The other reviews have really thrown the low marks at this film.  It is very soap opera and I did wish for more actual truth.  2 ½* (This movie is so-so) 

113 min, Bio directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel with Naomi Watts, Naveen Andrews, Cas Anvar, Juliette Stevenson, Charles Edwards, Douglas Hodge, Michael Hadley, Prasanna Puwanarajah.

Note:  Imdb 5.4 out of 10, 8% critic 27% audience on Rotten Tomatoes, Roger Ebert 1*.
