The Queen

I'm looking forward to watching The Queen starring Hellen Mirren. It's basically about Queen Elizabeth II - her untold story during the time of Princess Diana's death. I saw the trailer, and it was absolutely intriguing. Aaaah. I love stories about the British monarchy.

Another movie I'm curious about is Marie Antoinette, yet another monarchy story (French, this time).

I don't know what triggered my love for stories like these. THe story of King Arthur and his Round Table, perhaps? Sleeping Beauty? So far I've read historical fiction based on characters from the 16th century: The Other Boleyn Girl which revolves around the Boleyn sisters Mary and Anne (as in Anne Boleyn, wife of Henry VIII of England, and mother of Queen Elizabeth I); and the Courtesan which is a fictional story based on the life of Diane de Poiters, mistress of Henri II of France.

Sir Ozaeta says that I was a duchess in my past life (Wait, what is the lowest title, duchess or countess?) Maybe that's why I feel so attune to these "royalty" stories. Haha. Feeling. That would've been so cool, though. I mean, I wouldn't want to live in those times (too stuffy and too superficial sometimes), but it would've been fun to be nobility. :)
