Title: Mrs Brown ROCKS!
Review: I watched this video only recently and I was enchanted by Dame Judi Dench and Billy Connolly who gave an excellent performance as John Brown, Queen Victoria's man servant. I was a bit skeptical about the film at first but I am a convert to the cause. Watch this and enjoy, it's not a tear-jearker for those looking for kisses and roses but it will bring a lump to your throat as you watch a fragile friendship develop between the austere Queen of England and the rough and ready Scotsman who became her most loyal subject in a time of need. John Brown is never portrayed as a Saint, he is drinker and blasphemer who somehow managed to charm Queen Victoria and anger a nation at the same time. Judy Dench gives a credible performance as the brittle and aging Queen grieving for her dead husband and the storyline follows their friendship from beginning to end. Look out for the scene when John Brown goes skinny-dipping in the sea, it's enough to make your teeth chatter for a lifetime!
