Chief Chick Comments

Winner of 7 Academy Awards including Best Picture, Best Actress(Paltrow) Supporting Actress(Judi Dench), Screenplay, Art Direction, Costumes, Music. Dench wins an Oscar for a very few minutes onscreen playing the Virgin Queen, Elizabeth I. Really a good movie with some interesting scenes which have stuck with me. After seeing Paltrow supposedly brushing her teeth with a stick of some kind, I set off on a mission to investigate when toothbrushing started. Her costumes are really gorgeous as Elizabeth Regeant's are enormous! It is hard to exactly understand how Viola falls for this guy who needs a bath. But we are drawn in. Maybe we understand the ending; maybe we don't, but fun none the less.
