    • Trivia
      Princess Beatrice: a great-great-great-great-granddaughter of Queen Victoria plays one of Victoria's ladies in waiting.
    • Goofs
      While King William IV insulted the Duchess of Kent at Windsor, some facts as shown are wrong. In the film, the Duchess sat several feet away from the king, she left the room, and neither Victoria nor the guests reacted much. In real life, the Duchess sat next to the King, she did not leave the room, Victoria cried in reaction to the King's outburst, and the guests were aghast.
    • Quotes

      Queen Victoria: [sobbing] I'm so sorry! I thought I was going to lose you!

      Prince Albert: I don't think he was a very good shot.

      Queen Victoria: Why did you do it? So stupid, why did you do it?

      Prince Albert: I had two very good reasons. First, I am replaceable and you are not.

      Queen Victoria: You are not replaceable to me!

      Prince Albert: Second, you're the only wife I've got or ever will have. You are my whole existence, and I will love you until my very last breath.

    Better than I expected
    I went into this expecting not to like it; I figured it would be terribly worthy and earnest, and rather plodding and dull.

    It's actually far better than that, and I found myself really enjoying it. I don't know too much about Queen Victoria beyond what most know - married to Albert, who died young, and she mourned him ever after. Seeing the circumstances she grew up under was fascinating; in fact I found myself wishing I'd seen more of the story, and I imagine we may see a sequel at some point.

    Visually the film is stunning. The sets and costumes are incredibly lavish without being too gaudy and over the top. The acting is top notch from everybody involved.

    In a word, it was great!
