ELIZABETH : The Golden Age

Oh my! This I can't wait to watch on the big screen. Cate Blanchett is back to reprise her role as Queen Elizabeth I. 'The Golden Age' is a historical thriller set against the backdrop of the religious fanaticism of the late 16th Century. The story continues 15 years on from the events of the film's 1998 prequel, "Elizabeth", and visits the 'Virgin Queen' in the middle years of her reign, exploring her relationship with adventurer Sir Walter Raleigh played by the dashing Clive Owen, no less. I am sooo looking forward to the costumes in this! If you've seen 'Elizabeth', you'd know how fabulous Cate was in the title role. Sadly though, her critically-acclaimed performance was robbed of an Oscar by none other than Gwyneth Paltrow for 'Shakespeare In Love'.

PS. I think I might have been Queen Elizabeth in my previous life!
