Hubbard’s words ring true to the events that took place in Queen Victoria’s life and the movie representing her actions‚ as well. The acclaimed movie‚ The Young Victoria‚ stars Queen Victoria‚ played by Emily Blunt‚ and Prince Albert‚ who prove their selfless love for each other after living in other people’s worlds.

Movies often contain historical inaccuracies regarding timing of events‚ food during a specific time period‚ and famous people. The movie‚ Ever After‚ was mostly accurate when they showed the Prince playing tennis. They played in an enclosed court‚ but it is debatable whether tennis players used a glove or a racquet.

My Reaction Paper: Literature in Ben Hur Film I cannot think of a better movie about the early days of Christianity than this one. There are others‚ of course‚ but none has the grandeur and the spectacular dimension of Ben-Hur. I gladly and proudly give Ben-Hur a score of 10 out of 10! “In order to know the history of nation’s spirit‚ one must read its literature.” Ben Hur film exposes history of Romans and Jews. The novel that was adopted was written in a less vulgar time about a very spiritual
