I found this movie really enjoyable..with alot of nice footage,(alot of familiar footage).I really liked the interviews they had with the friends of Diana, which gives you a true idea of the kind of person she was and not just what the press wanted you to know..I would like to have seen more footage of her on her visit to the landmines..This video contained alot of what people has already seen, but still truly enchanting to us who knew and loved her...!

I was SO glad to see a video with new footage of Diana and her close friends. As I already own several dozen videos on the Princess I thought I had seen it all. This one actually manages to contain an interview with Carolyn Bartholomew, her flatmate and very close girlfriend, who had always shunned the cameras before. My only complaint is that in the middle of "A Day in the Life of Diana", this video segues into a long and mysterious dissertation on her clothes, hair and makeup, and interviews her clothing designers at GREAT length. I realize these things may have been part of her "day", but why spend 20 minutes on it? It would have been more appropriate to the title of the video to have actually gone through one of her typical days chronologically from start to finish. Aside from the slightly misleading title, I'd recommend this as a good video for Diana fans.

As many books as I've read and documentarties as I've seen, there always appears to be another lawyer to the "royals" that we as americans are completely unaware of. It was well done... only crticism is TOO SHORT!
