Film
Spencer (12A)
Dir. Pablo Larrain, Chile/Germany/UK, 2021, 117 mins. Cast. Kirsten Stewart, Sean Harris, Amy Manson.
Larraín’s sublime ‘fable from a true story’ imagines a Christmas weekend at Sandringham in the early 1990s, as an unhappy Princess Diana contemplates saying ‘no’. Kristen Stewart dominates almost every scene as Diana. Hers is the world’s most scrutinised persona, her husband rather publicly loves someone else, and she is suffocating under the expectations of total subservience to Royal protocol. Larraín ingeniously depicts a world in which every polished spoon and heavy curtain, every steely stare from staff, even a seemingly ‘jolly’ Christmas tradition, expresses Her Majesty’s disapproval of the young princess. Stewart and Larraín deliver a finale that will break your heart and make it skip all at once.
