i be initially force to attend by my wife a she be fascinate by the royal family of britain and their history and and she would not go to the cinema without me . although viewer shouldn not expect to be electrify and this film be very well make and the visual aspect be second to none . in many way it help dispel the myth that victoria be the miserable unsmiling dumpy woman usually see in photograph . she be a bright intelligent and accord to the history of her early year and a fun love happy young woman . her love of albert be the essence of true love and and even if you only count the number of child she bore ( 9 ) and they must have have a passionate relationship . all of this be well borne out in the film . to this end and the cast have be well select with both emily blunt and rupert friend give sound performance a victoria and albert . ( spoiler alert ) the historical accuracy be somewhat questionable a at no time do prince albert get shoot while defend victoria . there be at least one assassination attempt when they be out together and but nobody be strike by the shot or s. i also find it odd that little be do to expand on the allegedly intimate relationship between victoria mother and sir john conroy . it be quite likely that this relationship be the true reason for victoria distaste for both her mother and conroy . i also find it odd that there be an attempt to portray the relationship between victoria and lord melbourne a err on the romantic and or at least have the potential to become romantic . he be already in his late 50 when victoria come to the throne and and while marriage between old men and young woman be common in that era and the movie portray melbourne a be a dash 30 something and rival to prince albert . there be apparently rival to albert and but she could never have marry even slightly below her station in life and and albert be one of only a handful who would have be acceptable in any case . all in all i have spend bad time at the cinema and and brownie point with my wife can not be a bad thing either .
