Full ‘Diana’ Trailer Highlights Romance

With royalty fever everywhere in London this summer thanks to the birth of our future king, it seems like the perfect year for a biopic of that king’s late grandmother, Princess Diana. ‘The People’s Princess’ as she was dubbed, forever had her life slapped over the covers of the tabloids, but this latest film claims to tell us the “real” story as it chronicles her love for a heart surgeon. This latest trailer certainly tries to emphasise Diana as a person and not just a member of the royal family, but it also seems to be taking a saccharine and idealised look at her life. I just always feel a little odd hearing obvious movie dialogue coming from the mouths of characters that exist/existed. Oliver Hirschbiegel directs, and with DOWNFALL and DAS EXPERIMENT in his back catalogue, I’m hoping some darker elements are just being left out of the marketing.

DIANA is released  20th September 2013 and stars Naomi Watts, Naveen Andrews, Douglas Hodge, Geraldine James, Charles Edwards, and Cas Anvar.
