A little slow in the beginning. Sometimes child like. Better at the end.
June 30, 2008This was a really good movie. The scenery and costumes were stunningly beautiful. Having read books about Lady Jane, I do not believe this movie to be entirely historically accurate,(especially the passion that Jane and Guilford shared in marriage - which contradicts most of what I have read about their relationship), but it was still entertaining. The ending was very moving and sad, but Jane stayed true to her Christian beliefs and lost her head over it. I would definitely recommend watching this movie!
June 29, 2008Having studied the very sad life of Lady Jane at school, it was so wonderful to see her life enacted by such a talented actress, and with such a talented supporting cast. Brilliant in every aspect. A MUST view if you know nothing about this young Queen. A must view if you enjoy English history.

This drama starting Helena Bonham Carter as the 15 year old Lady Jane Grey depicts the nine days of 1553 that Jane's rule as Queen before Princess Mary over throws her and assumes the throne. In an underhanded way of keeping the crown from the Church of Rome, Jane is forced into a position that she is unprepared for and when the lies and power struggles are revealed she and her new husband, Guilford Dudley (Cary Elwes) are imprisoned and sentenced to die. Apparently it's not historically accurate, but a nice love story, even if there is no proof that the real Jane and Guilford actually liked each other.
April 8, 2008I love this movie - one of my all time favorites! Helena Bonham Carter is great in it! Great story, good acting ... great message!
