Mary Stuart is a cousin of Elizabeth I, but a Catholic. Her mother is Mary the regent of Scotland who was assassinated by Worthingham (there were three Mary queens in the same era...). She and King Philip II of Spain had a close relationship and conspired to overthrow Elizabeth. Sir Worthingham acted first, intercepted the evidence of their conspiracy, and then persuaded Elizabeth I to execute Mary Stuart. The furious Philip II sent the Spanish Invincible Fleet to expedition to Britain, and was ambushed by the fireboats of British pirates, and the entire army was annihilated. Since then, the former maritime supremacy of Spain has been devastated. England ushered in unprecedented prosperity, known as the "golden age" in history. Ironically, because Queen Elizabeth was unmarried for life and had no heirs after death, his cousin James Stuart (son of Mary Stuart) inherited the throne of England, which is advocating "sovereign power granted by the gods". "The James I." His son Charles I continued to flourish and was finally sent to the guillotine. This is something later.
The film's heroine Cate Blanchett once again won the Oscar nomination for best actress for her role as Elizabeth I. In my opinion, the story clues of this film are not as complicated as the previous work, and the shooting did not deeply express the queen's heart. The only good point is that the picture has improved a lot and is more beautiful, but overall the film is not as good-looking as the previous one.
