Queen Elizabeth I as a human being
In the movie Elizabeth, the queen is represented as a warrior,lover,ruler,etc
But for me the most important role that she played was as a human being
that can make mistakes,be afraid of the challenges of being a queen,and be a
human with needs.
The love that she felt for the pirat was forbiden for her so she has to feel
that love throgh her young servant, but with consequences that she did not
consider at all.
Additionally she felt temerous and insecure because her Catholic cousin Mary,
Queen of Scots wanted her dead.So Elizabeth has to confront many conspirations
against her.
Finally at the end of the movie we can see that Elizabeth I has to fight for her nation,
and she get married with England because before being a woman and a human being,
she is queen that has to protect her country despite her needs or fears.
She becomes the Virgin Queen , a queen who does not need a man with her in order
to rule her country.
once I saw the movie, I found her as a model of humanity. She was strong and determined, she knew what she had to say, to do, but despite of that, I agree with you on what you highlight, the fact that she was a woman with needs, who feels, who breaths and who makes mistakes.
