The Courtship of Elizabeth

[@Luluandherbooks]

Just the way the treats the Austrian guy like he's the cutest thing in the world is so great❤😂

[@lani_laRose]

My Goodness, this is supposed to be Austrian? I first thought this was Dutch! I had to listen to that scene at least 5 times until I understood few words at least! 😂

[@siralexandersequeira3rdcou12]

"The austrian guy" excuse me that's the Archduke Charles of Austria, an impressive historical figure

[@savagedarksider5934]

I still can't believe the ninth doctor was in this movie. I think I can rightfully say, Cate is A beautiful woman. She's my top pick in playing Hera is they ever make A movie center around the Greek Gods.

[@Muk.bangshi]

The dress😂😂

[@erinscruggs5838]

Those plots and pressure is exactly why, not.

[@Emy-fv5ny]

The way she prtected that boy was so kind.

[@ericaeidummckellips7725]

I can see why queen Elizabeth didn't get married all her suitors were losers and that lord duddly giy screwed her over and with all honesty she wasn't going to put up with any mans shit.

YESSS

[@pierrebeaumont4135]

Virginia? And when I marry will you change the name to Conjugia? cannot stop laughing...!

[@mariajukejax9649]

When Anjou came out wearing a dress and saying "what?!" I died laughing 😂

[@SonetteMLB]

Now I want to watch the film again. I love her so much! She's a strong and independent woman. 👑

[@dighenis3617]

Her half sister catholic, was surnamed "Bloody Mary", because she had killed 300 so-called heretics protestants, and Elizabeth the "protestant", had killed quite more until 500 people ! Who was the worst bloody ! This Elite are all piece of shit ! Vampires !

[@AngieELLMMM]

Pulling out the portrait was equivalent to today’s match making.

[@Skyebright1]

Swipe right ;)

[@AngieELLMMM]

@@Skyebright1 lmao 😂

[@ciudadanakane8743]

Vincent Cassel plays so well that clown, love his acting here. Cate should have won the Oscar, but we all know that, right?

[@einezcrespo2107]

Actually Vincent scared a number of people with his acting because he was so unpredictable.

[@ciudadanakane8743]

@@einezcrespo2107 he steals the scenes.

[@Headintodreams]

Yes we do. Cate is on another level. One that most actors don't even come close to.

[@angelosantaniello4113]

Don’t get married lol

[@dumbodummy4959]

Huh 😕 did not understand

[@kateu.bragado695]

She didn't get married because of what his father did.

[@harveyblackwood3563]

​@@kateu.bragado695 not only that but after the death of Catherine Howard as well which really affected her.

[@cherylhulting1301]

Elizabeth absolutely had the right idea. And her strategy was smart. She inherited a country that had economic and diplomatic problems. Her "game of suitors" kept everyone on the leash, hoping to become her consort. So no one could pursue war against her. This bought her country time to work on its internal problems.

[@aleksaknezevic3723]

I think that the Archduke of Austria spoke wierd and hardly understandable beacuse Austria was under the Habsburgs at the time, who were the most inbred royal dynasty.

[@cringecat3614]

Or, he simply could barely speak english. You don't see him stutter like that when he and Elizabeth talk to each other in german.

[@keencroc7555]

Such a genius of an actress. Very subdued yet powerful performance.

[@Jbk87]

If elizabeth had tinder,she would swipe on everyone EVERYONE 😆😆😆😆

[@alexanderchenf1]

German and French personalities are quiet the difference

[@kaharma1]

It is highly inaccurate though. It is unfortunatly common for foreigners like the English to make fun of the French in movies... Here, Henri, duke of Anjou is portrayed as a caricature, but historically it is François, duc d'Alençon who came to visit Elisabeth and it was long after what we saw in the movie. François was a serious suitor, he pursuied marriage for political reasons with diplomatic negociations rather than extravagant behavior like we witnessed here... David Starkey or Alison Weir mentionned in their books how François came multiple times for pourparlers to unite the two reals. In the movie, Henri's exentric behavior, used for comedic effect, only serves to illustrate the "cultural" and political incompatibility between Elisabeth and her foreign suitors, that reinforces Elisabeth sense of isolation and strong will to remain independent.

[@wisdomseeker0142]

Danjou is crazyyyy 😆 😆 he’s half a mood . Half. He’s got spunk. However I couldn’t imagine anyone being this forward with the queen of that time. 😂

[@rodneysandson]

She looks like Elizabeth in real life,I think

[@dias4710]

Parecidissima.

[@johnny63ism]

In my native language french word la clé (key) sounds similar to the word describing male organ, that made these scene even more funnier :D

[@Angle-saxon-94]

What make it funny for me is that the French guy wæs dress like a women but then again it’s not heard for Frenchman to act like a women when they our women 😂🤣😭

[@rexrivers2220]

Damn just damn. I was tempted in the past to watch this but I’m convinced

[@cherylhulting1301]

It's fun to watch. Do NOT get hung up on historical accuracy. The Elizabeth movies take quite a lot of liberty with historical facts.

[@einezcrespo2107]

Bit of trivia. The fake Duke of Anjou was played by Sir Tim Bevan. He with Eric Fellner created Working Title Films which produced both Elizabeth films. Their other credits are Four Weddings and A Funeral, Pride and Prejudice (2005), Bridget Jones movies, Darkest Hour, Baby Driver, Hot Fuzz, Love Actually, About A Boy and many more.

[@user-kf6lu4dn2r]

I think if English law had not given a man absolute ownership over all his wife's property and literal person that Elizabeth probably would have been happy to marry. But for her getting married means she literally handed her entire domain to someone else who was not born to be monarch. I know it was after her passing that the laws were put in that spouses have no right of rule and no right of succession, because of the problems caused during her reign by the old rules.

[@yulia7396]

Never ever get married(. I find impossible far more interesting then possible

[@melussabuscemi7311]

Well spent blood of Anne Boylen, she is the male heir of Henry the 8th , she's the queen of all above, Long Live Queen Elizabeth 1

[@kokonana4086]

I know all these scenes are about ER I and Cate Blanchet was incredible in all of these scenes. But, Vincent Cassel also stole every single scene as well. What a phenomenal actor!

[@thegirlgonemad]

I dont know why they make the young one so silly from history sake lizzy seem to quite like him

[@carterbentonjr399]

She did like him and would have married the Archduke but someone in his party pulled a fast one and insisted if he became Holy Roman Emperor then Elizabeth would have to become a Catholic. The rest they say is history.

[@NassPeace]

Cate Blanchett ❤️❤️

[@chelseapasaol9926]

The kiss bruh it made me laugh

[@maitham.alkhazragi5290]

The kiss scene is beautiful and funny😄

[@ninokatsitadze7787]

Forw me if there is something good in this movie it is Vincent Cassel he is a joy ❤❤❤

[@williamcasey8791]

its really never a good idea to be a cross dresser to pick up women

[@drunkydrunk2351]

True😂

[@redmia9206]

I like the way she laughs

[@telfordrunners3254]

Gosh .....I've seen this more than 3x I think 😅

[@marygracebarlizo1374]

I love her❤️

[@minervacuervo4662]

She loved her Robert, but he was already married and very, very unsuitable

[@SG-pu3rx]

Was inaccurate as hell

[@rentbuyown6480]

But still fun to watch

[@rosaruiz4591]

Didn’t her and Anjou get together in real life even though they never ended up together?

[@captlanc]

I think she got married rather early. At the start of her Hollywood career really.

[@chelseapasaol9926]

Why is he wearing a dress 🤣😂

[@sillycat16]

cuz he’s gay

[@feelmehish8506]

no its because he's french. @@sillycat16
