The Golden Age Of Cate

Australian actress Cate Blanchett is back on our screens as Queen Elizabeth (We can not forget that it is nearly a decade ago since her role in Shekar Kapur's Elizabeth earned her an Academy Award nomination). This time I thought she was even more striking than she was throughout the first movie. Cate is on top form and is absolutely breathtaking whether it is with her acting skills or because of the epoch costumes she wears. The story might not be incredible and attention grabbing, however, everything from the costumes to the set is mind blowing. English tradition and opulence is de rigueur from start to finish. Cate Blanchett shines as always and delivers an outstanding performance. From Babel with Brad Pitt to Notes on a Scandal with Dame Judi Dench, it seems like this year is Cate's Golden Age. Every fashion lover will definitely be amazed by the high standard of the costumes and make up used in this period movie.
