The latest trailer for Princess Diana's biopic Spencer starring Kristen Stewart shows a poignant photo of Princess Diana crying in a wedding dress, but the question is, is this a film interpretation, or is it really the case? Has this famous scene ever happened in history?
In this new film, Princess Diana collapses on the bed, crying in a white wedding dress. In hindsight, it's an unforgettable picture, and we know how Diana's marriage developed, and the shot is moving. Stewart said of the film: "The film Spencer incorporates Diana's emotional imagination at a turning point in her life."
The film is set on Christmas Day 1991, a decade after the famous royal wedding on July 29, 1981. It is said that this was the moment when Princess Diana decided to leave her increasingly unhappy marriage. On August 26, the film released a new poster with the slogan "Every fairy tale has an ending". Kristen Stewart plays Diana Spencer.
Many observers believe the photo depicts the mood of Princess Diana's wedding day, but the dress is clearly quite different from the real one. It could also be a flashback from 1981, but the style of the dress seems more refined, reflecting the evolution of Diana's style. Interestingly, fans were quick to point out that the dress and pose completely copied an incredible Oscar moment, which was completely at odds with the haunting emotions of Diana's image.
In 2013, actress Jennifer Lawrence tripped on the stairs while winning an Oscar for "The Happy Line Behind the Clouds." The two pictures are strikingly similar, although the emotions behind them are very different. The new film Spencer will focus on Diana's devastating acceptance of the fact that her marriage is over and she needs to leave.
In the film, Charles tells Diana: "We have been given a mission, for the good of the country, for the sake of the people, and you have to be able to make your body do what you hate because they don't want us to be ordinary lovers." Here's the thing, sorry, I thought you knew. ”
Olga Helsing plays Sarah Ferguson and Nilas Colter plays Prince Andrew. Sally Hawkins, Timothy Spoo and Sean Harris are also confirmed to star, but roles have yet to be revealed. In fact, Andrew Morton's May 1992 book Diana: Her True Story revealed the breakdown of the royal marriage and some of Diana's affairs.
