'VICTORIA AND ABDUL' TRAILER
JUDI DENCH GOES ROYAL AGAIN
There is also a rather nice first trailer for September historical drama VICTORIA AND ABDUL in which Judi Dench plays one of English queens for the fourth or fifth time, methinks. Directed by Stephen Frears (The Queen, Philomena) it also stars Olivia Williams and Michael Gambon.
MOST UNLIKELY FRIENDSHIP
The extraordinary true story of an unexpected friendship in the later years of Queen Victoria’s (Judi Dench) remarkable rule. When Abdul Karim (Ali Fazal), a young clerk, travels from India to participate in the Queen’s Golden Jubilee, he is surprised to find favour with the
Queen herself. As the Queen questions the constrictions of her long-held
position, the two forge an unlikely and devoted alliance with a loyalty
to one another that her household and inner circle all attempt to
destroy. As the friendship deepens, the Queen begins to see a changing
world through new eyes and joyfully reclaims her humanity.

Almost Stylish
the second one seems like it will be lovely as well
DeleteI will watch Judi Dench in ANYTHING, so for sure I'll go see Victoria & Abdul, which actually looks quite good in any event.
ReplyDeletewe shall go to watch her snore on the big screen :) even though we hate that repugnant Nazi colonizer Victoria
DeleteOf course the mango is off! It had no chance to breathe in that tight hot box. Hmmph. White people. Victoria trailer looks interesting and touching. Though it is painting a brush over on the fact that being colonized by a foreign country isn't pretty.
ReplyDeletePaddington 2 looks absolutely darling! Saw the first in theaters and will do the same for this one.
maybe it was just presented to her in that box, da royal style, you know, but I reckon it was impossible bringing mango all the way from one's colonial plantations to one's imperial palace on the other side of the world without freezers :)
DeleteAllison loved the first Paddington. She went to the theater to see it with friends, so I missed watching it. I will have to catch up though so we can both see the sequel.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the first part either, but I should since I really adore Imelda and Julie and Bonneville
DeleteVictoria and Abdul is a film I will definitely watch.
ReplyDeleteprobably another Oscar nomination for Judi!
DeleteI love Judi Dench anyway, but that trailer looks spectacular. I can't wait to see it.
ReplyDeletewe positively adore dame Judi Dench!
Delete...that her household and inner circle all attempt to destroy. What else is new? People haven't changed and will never change.
ReplyDeletehopefully an asteroid hits us and kills us all
