mary queen of scots

A friendship that became a rivalry. A rivalry that became a war. Watch Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie in the new trailer for #MaryQueenofScots. "Mary Queen of Scots" explores the turbulent life of the charismatic Mary Stuart (Ronan). Queen of France at 16 and widowed at 18, Mary defies pressure to remarry.

POSITIVES…
- Saoirse Ronan, amazing actress as always, and really owns the screen here.
- Margot Robbie is good in this too, although I wished there was more of her.
- Jack Lowden, fantastic performance from him too as Henry Darnley.
- With Beau “House Of Cards” Willimon’s screenplay, the plot is delicious intricate here. The political intrigue, the betrayals, the scheming, the tragedy, the drama, this movie will force you to pay attention to what’s going on, less you get lost.

NEGATIVES…
- Some will take offense at the historical inaccuracies.
- Demanding on how you take in all the information thrown at you, the story can get too convoluted.
- Sometimes it’s feels like the plot is progressing too fast.

P.S….
- Definitely makes me want to know more about Mary Stuart, and just might be convincing enough to get me to watch that TV series “Reign.”
