Starring Kristen Stewart, Spencer is the next film by Pablo Larraín, following the line of 'Jackie'.
Indeed, The film elaborates a portrait of an iconic woman in history at the most decisive moment of her life.
Thanks to the movie, Kristen Stewart has been acclaimed by everyone this season for her role as Princess Diana.
"Dazzling, tender, breathtaking, wonderful" is an example of how critics define the film and such a wonderful
performance by the actress.
Written by Steven Knight, creator of the hit show 'Peaky Blinders'.
The film's small cast is rounded out by Jack Farthing in the role of Prince Charles.
Timothy Spall ('Mr. Turner') playing Major Alistar Gregory.
On the other hand, we have Sally Hawkins (Oscar nominee for 'The Shape of Water') as Diana's stylist and
Sean Harris in the role of the royal family's head chef.
All of them are part of the spiral of obsessions and anxiety that Diana Spencer, better known as
Lady Di enters in a Christmas that has nothing happy or cozy about it.
Besides, the film shows "what might have happened" on that Christmas vacation that Princess Diana and
Prince Charles spent in the early 1990s at Sandringham and which served as a
precedent for the couple's formal separation.
Thus, Larraín has been clear in assuring that the film is not made to understand who Diana was but to
show a new perspective on what is already known about the princess, whose death was 24 years ago on August 31.
In addition, Spencer debuted to great acclaim at the Venice Film Festival, where its leading man shone
brightly amidst a standing ovation from the audience.
In fact, some critics even expect to see her among the Oscar nominees for her role as Lady Di.
