 The BigScreen Cinema Guide: Reader Reviews - Mrs. Brown
Disraeli makes an unforgettable appearance in this film, showing his disdain for Scotland by describing it as "the land of Calvin, oat cakes, and sulphur, 800 miles north of civilization." We are provided with a rare glimpse into the royal lifestyle.
It was honestly with hesitation that I went to see this movie, as I am no fan of a certain breed of British film, specifically the Jane Austen movies, which, without an acception I have found downright boring.
Brown is a cultured, well-made, and enlightening look at one of the most important historical figures ever, and how one man lifted her from her doldrums.

It is highlighted by the brilliant nuanced performances by the pint-sized stage actress Judi Dench as Queen Victoria and the more outwardly emotional one by Billy Connolly (best-known for stand-up comedy routines and appearances on English talk shows) as the commoner John Brown, her Scottish manservant.
Antony Sher in a supporting role, as the politically adroit Prime Minister Disraeli, is also excellent.
Dench was nominated for an Oscar and as a result of the film became sought after in Hollywood; director John Madden would go on to even more success with 1998's Oscar winning Shakespeare in Love.
