Mary Queen of Scots (1971)
Country: GB/US
Technical: col/scope 128m
Director: Charles Jarrott
Cast: Vanessa Redgrave, Glenda Jackson, Trevor Howard, Patrick McGoohan, Timothy Dalton, Nigel Davenport
Synopsis:
Catholic Mary agitates against her cousin, the Queen of protestant England, but does so against a background of political intrigue in her own kingdom.
Review:
The film adds substance to the impression that, however different in character, Elizabeth and Mary were fond of one another. It is an angle made plainer by John Barry's wistful score, but two hours are too long for such stately film-making.
