| | deseretnews.com - Movie review: Elizabeth | Deseret Morning News Web edition |
 | | While Elizabeth is busy celebrating the good news with her sweetheart, Lord Robert Dudley (Joseph Fiennes), her advisers begin pressuring her to marry a political ally to strengthen her financially poor and militarily weak empire. |
 | | If that's not bad enough, Elizabeth also has to fight off challenges from inside her court, including one by the fanatical Duke of Norfolk (Christopher Eccleston), an overzealous Catholic who is upset at the thought of a Protestant queen. |
 | | "Elizabeth" is rated R for impalings and other violent killings, gore, sex, female nudity, use of vulgar slang, a brief torture scene and scattered profanities. |
