Young Victoria film poster

Young Victoria is a film about the first turbulent years of the reign of Queen Victoria.
The best thing about the film is the politics and interplay between all the characters. The are some great shots, one where the young Victoria glides across a room with the camera staying the same distance relative, so the background disappears, an effect similar to the famous zoom in and move away shot of a scene in Jaws. then there is a shot if Victorin in a cathedral which is stunning while just being a very drab image. I would recommend this film.
