CineFix - IGN Movies and TV | Spencer: A Mash-Up of Reality, Fiction and A Christmas Carol | Movie Review @CineFix | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 1 day ago
Spencer teams star Kristen Stewart with director Pablo Larrain, whose 2016 biopic Jackie got Natalie Portman an Academy Award nomination. In 2021, Spencer looks to get similar attention. The story of a Christmas spent at one of the royal family’s many estates dives deep into the mental health of the woman the world knew as Diana, Princess of Whales. The title of the film tells you the woman being profiled is Diana Spencer, mother of two with a love for the simple things in life.
Spencer is narratively ambitious, blending reality and fiction to explore mental illness with high camp in a fascinating way. Kristen Stewart is truly remarkable while Pablo Larrain cements himself as a go-to director for unique and thoughtful biopics.
Spencer was reviewed by Rafael Motamayor and edited by Clint Gage.
