The Princess
The Princess tells the story of Princess Diana exclusively through contemporaneous archival footage creating a bold and immersive narrative of her life and death. Turning the camera back on ourselves, the film illuminates the profound impact she had and how the public's attitude to the monarchy was and still is, shaped by these events.
Directed by Academy-Award nominated Ed Perkins (Tell Me Who I Am) and from the Academy-Award winning producer of Searching for Sugar Man and Man on Wire.
Critic Reviews:
- " An exquisite backstage look on how a (media) myth is created. (…) It’s hard to outfox the mass media machine. But this clever and heartfelt doc might just have managed. " – Milana Vujkov (Lola On Film)
- " Most of the clips will be familiar, yet they have been expertly (if at times a little mischievously) curated. " – Brian Viner (Daily Mail, UK)
- " Director Ed Perkins doesn't seek fresh revelations about this ill-fated union. He just stirs our memories with a slickly edited collage of archive footage and old interviews. " – Andy Lea (Daily Express, UK)
