I think she's made quite a journey in finding her empathy for HRH for this film. Of course, now she's also a global movie superstar so that'll change things too, I guess. She need never wear underwear again.</p>Steve BowbrickFri, 02 Mar 2007 08:12:43 -0000Re: This Is Not a Review of The Queen Eitherhttp://newcritics.com/blog1/2007/03/01/im-still-on-the-oscars-here-guys/#comment-1373576<p>Interesting post Steve - didn't know the UK background.
