The story of the ascension to the throne and the early reign of Queen Elizabeth the First, the endless attempts by her council to marry her off, the Catholic hatred of her and her romance with Lord Robert Dudley.
Editor's Verdict
"The film 'Elizabeth' is a historical drama focused on the political and personal struggles of Queen Elizabeth I. None of the classification criteria suggest any meaningful connection to the Christmas season, its themes, or its iconography."
