jpWhen cinema trades truth for aesthetic and myth, what gets lost? In Dreamland, violence becomes romance and consequence fades into fantasy. In Mary Queen of Scots, history is reshaped through visual bias and selective storytelling. Two films, opposite styles—same problem: the past and its people reduced to beautiful, convenient illusions.

This Is My GlasgowQueen Mary obviously didn't do as she was requested, and she went on to lose the battle and was forced to flee to England where she sought asylum from her cousin, Queen Elizabeth. This was an unfortunate choice which eventually led to her trial and then her execution on the 8th of February 1587.
