    I love Olivia Coleman, no problems with her accent for sure but her portrayal was at times a bit too emotive ( the late Queen was a lot more reserved) Only my opinion of course - Imelda Staunton has nailed it almost perfectly but for me, the standout, has been Elizabeth Debicki's portrayal of Diana - breath-taking and it moved me to tears. A well deserved win at the Globes as well.

    My one criticism for the narrator of this video, the royals accent isn’t “received pronunciation” it’s actually “heightened Received Pronunciation” which is different to generalised English RP in the acting world and dialect couches. For example, the Queens accent sounds nothing like Keira Knightly yet Keira Knightly has a standardised English RP accent. The queens and royals have heightened RP where onsets, vowels, and fricatives are annunciated differently. That’s the only incorrect observation I’ve made with your video

    They all did good. Having said that, the real-life characters are all more glamorous, complex, sophisticated, even good-looking, than the actors! I feel like somebody wanted to downplay the royals. It could be the fact that one can only look royal if they actually are royal... or it's bad cinematography. I don't find the lights, the color tones, the wardrobe, the exterior shots grand or glamorous enough, as compared to the real thing. The entire look & feel is downplayed. The characters - sorry to say - but they look common. The royals are not necessarily the most physically attractive people you've seen, but there is something in their look, the way they stand, when they walk into a room, or how they look at things. This was not at all captured in the film, almost like there was an intention to de-mythicize. But it's not a myth, it's real... Luckily for us, the real thing is here.
