    • Trivia
      The 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.
    • Goofs
      At 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."
    • Quotes

      John Knox: We have a scourge upon our land. 'Tis worse than pestilence and famine. 'Tis a woman with a crown.

    Disappointment
    I really wanted to love this movie. It was beautifully shot, and Ronin was, as always, very strong. And the rest of the cast was fine -- the problems with this Elizabeth were not Robbie's fault. The film was beautiful, but quite, quite dead. And it didn't flow, just a bunch of independent set pieces. Blame the writer and the director.
