Product Description
Three programs new to DVD that examine the life of Queen Elizabeth II, and probe her public and private life:

THE QUEEN BEHIND THE MASK by Andrew Morton

The unofficial Royal biographer Andrew Morton presents this unique documentary on Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II. Morton analyzes Elizabeth Windsor's life focusing on the major events that have made her the person she is today - taking an objective look at how the Queen has balanced her personal and public life from a very young age. With exclusive interviews from experts and individuals in contact with the Royal Family, The Queen Behind the Mask by Andrew Morton is a fascinating and definitive portrait of the Head of State.

DAYS OF MAJESTY

A film that beautifully depicts and celebrates the ceremonies that draw millions of tourists to England every year, those ceremonies associated with the Royal Family. In the year that marked the 40th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth's Coronation, this film portrays all the pomp and grandure that surrounds the monarchy.

THE MONARCHY,

This fascinating six-program series takes a searching look at the public and private lives of the British Royal Family. The six programs offer a revealing insight into the world's most famous family, looking at how the monarchy works, how it has evolved over the centuries and the challenges it faces in the present and in the future.

By	jrc "jrcasey" (Jonesboro, AR USA) - See all my reviews

Not the most up to date material on The Windsors, but pleasant to view. Disc 1 is Andrew Morton's 50 minute documentary about Elizabeth II. Disc 2 contains DAYS OF MAJESTY(1993), a 103 minute program concerning the 40th anniversary of Elizabeth II's coronation. Disc 3 is called THE MONARCHY, which is a collection of 6-30 minute(actually 24 minute) programs about the Windsors. Interesting material, but there is no "play all" option! For such short programs, a "play all" feature is a must. That is my only criticism, however. These are enjoyable docs for Royalphiles.

For Kultur, whose offerings are sometimes a mixed bag, this is an impressive release. Also, for Kultur, the price isn't too bad. Sorry, Kultur!
