Our movie man James King with his take on Spencer, starring Kristen Stewart as Diana, Princess of Wales.
November 05, 2021 - 13:11 GMT James King Spencer is like nothing you’ve seen before. If you’ve been following the buzz about this fictionalised look at three days in the life of the late Princess of Wales then you’ll already know how much star Kristen Stewart looks remarkably like the much-loved late royal, but there’s a lot more to this than a simple impersonation.Spencer is an unusual, even eerie, look at a free spirit who feels trapped in a world of rules.

The story is set at Sandringham over the Christmas of 1991 - a time when the marriage of the Diana and Prince Charles was at its most damaged. What follows is an ‘imagining’ by writer Steven Knight of what might have happened during a festive season when the former Lady Diana Spencer was unlikely to be in the mood for celebrations. The result is a study of a young woman with problems, desperate for someone to reach out to.
Sometimes it almost feels like a ghost story, helped in no small part by the persistently haunting music that accompanies scenes of Sandringham’s long corridors and vast grounds . The film even calls itself ‘a fable’ in its opening credits and it’s easy to see why. Like all great fairytales, it’s as weird as it is wonderful.
