  • Queen Elizabeth
    The British monarchy on screen oving images of the British monarchy, in fact and fiction, are almost as M old as the moving image itself, dating back to an 1895 dramatic vignette, The Execution of Mary Queen of Scots. Led by Queen Victoria, British monarchs themselves appeared in the new ‘animated photography’ from 1896. Half a The British century later, the 1953 coronation of Elizabeth II was a milestone in the adoption of television, watched by 20 million Britons and 100 million North Americans. At the century’s end, Princess Diana’s funeral was viewed by 2.5 billion worldwide. monarchy Historians have argued that the power of the image has bolstered the British monarchy as its political power has waned, but media scholars have been slow to examine how that power has been secured by royal self-promotion, entrepreneurial on screen deference, narrative sympathy, reportorial discretion and spectacular exhibition. In the first book-length examination of film and television representations of this enduring institution, distinguished scholars of media and political history analyse the screen representations of royalty from Henry VIII to ‘William and Kate’. Among their concerns are the commercial value of royal representations, the convergence of the monarch and the movie star, and the historical use of the moving image to maintain the Crown’s legitimacy. Seventeen essays by international commentators examine the portrayal of royalty in the ‘actuality’ picture, the early extended feature, amateur cinema, Edited by Mandy Merck the movie melodrama, the Commonwealth documentary, New Queer Cinema, TV current affairs, the big screen ceremonial and the post-historical boxed set.

Now one of the more compelling parts is back in the news again: The controversial last Queen Elizabeth II that sparked a giant feud between her husband Queen Elizabeth II Philip and the royal family. The Queen and Prince Philip had to decide on a surname to Queen Elizabeth II down to their descendents, debating between her name Windsorhis name Mountbattenor some Queen Elizabeth II of the two. More than six decades later, the effects of their decision are still playing out. If you've seen The Crown Queen Elizabeth II, then you know how much drama was behind that hyphenated surname. On February 6, — the same day that Elizabeth's father, King George VI, died — royal biographer Hugo Vickers notes that Elizabeth was asked by her Private Secretary at the time, Martin Charteris, about what name she would rule under also known as her "regnal name". Her response? Just like that the decision was made — no drama, no eyebrows raised. Her last name was a different story. Elizabeth's marriage to Prince Philip made the whole situation tricky. Elizabeth's last name was technically Windsor — the surname of the royal family that was established in Before that, royal family members were Queen Elizabeth II by the names of the countries where their relatives ruled, and sovereigns would take the name of their "House" from their father.
