... In the film, Elizabeth, they did just that on some parts. ... In Elizabeth, much of the facts were true. Some of the facts were: she had many troubles during her reign as Queen, she passed the Act of Uniformity, and relationships were the same, as well as some of the same qualities portrayed by Cate Blanchett, who played Queen Elizabeth I, appear in the Queen. However, there were also some fallacies, like the deaths of certain characters, assassination attempts against the Queen, how Robert Dudley “lied” to her about his marriage, and how Elizabeth supposedly dressed up as the Virgin Mary towards the end of the film. ...
Much like the movie, Queen Elizabeth I came across many perplexing problems. ... All of England’s Catholic people feared the fact that Elizabeth was in reign because she was of the Protestant faith. She faced a very important topic when she was crowned Queen of England. ... In the movie, her dying sister, Mary, wanted Elizabeth to promise she would keep the Catholic faith the main religion. However, Elizabeth said that she would do whatever her heart told her to do. ... This problem even showed up in the movie, showing how badly England needed the money and how frugal Elizabeth was on spending it.
In both the movie, Elizabeth, and in true history, Queen Elizabeth I passed the Act of Uniformity. ... Just like in the movie, a large number of the Parliament were still Catholic and opposed the Bill when Elizabeth was trying to get it approved. ... This supposedly helped Elizabeth out a little bit, because she was slowly getting rid of the problems that she was encountering as the Queen. ... However, the actress Cate Blanchett, who portrayed Queen Elizabeth I in the movie Elizabeth, resembled her quite well. Many of the traits and qualities that Cate exhibited appeared truly in the Queen herself. For instance, the Queen loved dancing and music. The actors and directors depicted this by putting Elizabeth in as many entertaining scenes as possible. They specifically showed her love of The Volta (A true favorite of the Queen). Also, Queen Elizabeth I was proposed to many times. However she simply stated, “I would rather be a beggar and single, than be a Queen and married”.
