Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe first time Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie saw each other in character was during the scene where they meet for the first time. They rehearsed separately, and Robbie's scenes were completed the day Ronan began hers.
- GoofsAt the end of the film, Elizabeth's title is stated as "Queen of England and Wales." Wales has never been an autonomous kingdom, and no English monarch has used that title. Elizabeth I would have claimed the title "Queen of England, France, and Ireland, Defender of the Faith."

Featured review
Boring and unbelievable
This film tells the story of Mary Stuart, the queen of Scotland int eh 1500's.
Within fifteen minutes into the film, I already lost all interest in it. The fact that the Royal Court is multi-ethnic back then is unimaginable and inaccurate, even to a person who knows only basic world history. Then, Mary addresses an effeminate man as sister? Really? Homosexuality was punishable by death those days. The story is slow most of the time, but critical plot points are just skimmed over. The fact that the supporting characters are mostly unrecognisable (except for Guy Pearce) makes the characters very confusing too. I can hardly tell who is who. It is a huge bore and a big disappointment.
