Review of Diana

Diana (2013)
Watch it and judge for yourself. I liked the film a lot

This film tells the love life of Princess Diana the few years before her tragic death.

Making a film about such a famous and adored person is not easy, and "Diana" did a great job. "Diana" only tells a small but turbulent segment of her life, portraying her as a woman with a lot of love to give but unloved in return. Naomi Watts did a good job at a posh British accent, but she just doesn't look like Princess Diana. And her head is tilted far to often. Otherwise, she did a good job in portraying a woman torn between bliss and emotional turmoil.

The love story between Princess Diana and the heart surgeon is sweet, but not overly sweet. They still experience the bitter arguments like real couples do, which makes their relationship believable. The mention of Princess Diana's humanitarian work is great as well, it reminds people that Princess Diana was in fact a person with so much love to give, and cared about the world.

I liked the film a lot. Maybe it's because Princess Diana held and still occupies a special place in many people's hearts. Maybe people watch this thinking it was a biopic of Princess Diana. Her status as a member of the Royal Family serves only as the backdrop, and hence people get disappointed. People should really watch this film and judge for yourselves.
