Elizabeth: A Portrait in Part(s)

Ignore the negative reviews. This was not meant to be either a documentary or a tribute. Just like the title says, it's a portrait and it's made of film footage of the queen throughout her life (all complimentary) paired with one of more footages of people, places or events relatable in one way or another to the particular footage being shown. It was artistic and worked well. The music included some numbers perhaps only Brits would know but overall, it was a mix of oldies and today's music. Why not? The queen has lived though it all. I'm an anglophile from the US. I love the queen. This honored her in a way younger people can relate to. It's not stodgy and it shows the more human side of this wonderful woman. And without spoiling, the way they ended it, if you pay attention, is lovely.

OMG. The cutting from HRM to Elizabeth Taylor is but one example of what can only be described as a bizarre and undignified look at Queen Elizabeth. It's like a bad dream. Did I mention the part with the Mona Lisa wearing a chef's hat? What? And it only gets worse from there.
