Three sentence movie reviews: Young Victoria


Kinda slow in the middle, but as my mother observed, “When nothing is happening, you can just look at all the pretty things in her hair.” Emily Blunt is very good as the young queen, the politics are well explained and Albert is very cute. A good movie to bring your knitting with a somewhat complex pattern to.

ps. passes the Bechdel test. Two women? Yes. Who talk to each other? Yes. About something besides a man? Yes! (Though if you count the British Throne as masculine, this would be a no)
