The Young Victoria (2009)
There is a new film about Queen Victoria debuting this year. Judging from the trailer, it looks quite good.(Via Passages to the Past) Whatever one might think of Victoria, her influence upon our time cannot be overlooked. More information HERE.
From what I understand it is based on a lot of careful research, and they are trying to capture the genuine Victoria. Apparently, the Duchess of York is one if the producers and has been quite zealous about getting the details correct.

I would like to respond to every comment but my schedule renders it impossible to do so. Please know that I appreciate those who take the time to share their thoughts.
I can't wait to see this one. Thanks.
