The Young Victoria (2009)

I can't not compare this to the version of the queens life which I know best, the British TV series 'Victoria'. 'The Young Victoria' starts before the death of King William so you get more of a sense of him, loves his niece but hates her mom. Otherwise the film covers much the same territory as Season One. It is interesting to note the differences in how the two approach the same material. The movie is less of a fan of Lord M then the series. Emily Blunt's Victoria starts out more confident then Jenna Coleman's. ***
