Spencer was released on Netflix last fall to depict a small period of Princess Diana’s life. It stars Kristine Stewart who is most famous for Bella in the Twilight series. The producer was Pablo Larraín and written by Steven Knight. It has been nominated for an Oscar.
I love watching anything about royals and even though Diana died before I was born, I love getting to know her in movies and shows based off her life. Hollywood sprinkles a little magic on their stories so what we see may not be accurate. Was it entertaining? Sure. I was not really impressed with Kristen’s acting, but I thought the movie was ok.
What I appreciated most about the movie was that it focused on the mental health of Diana who was dealing with an eating disorder and depression. It also made me realize that just because you are famous and rich that you don’t have serious problems. I give this a 3 out of 5 stars because it was a little draggy at times.
