Although it should be pointed out Spencer It’s an amazing movie, and it’s not without its flaws-the most notable is its bizarre reference to Henry VIII’s wife Anne Boleyn.
The movie starring Kristen Stewart, Pablo Larain and Stephen Knight focuses on the three days of life of the late Princess Diana.
Within 2 hours, the audience was fascinated, desperately trying to predict Diana’s every move. Knight’s inner imagination, isolation from his “family”, the bond of love with his sons William and Harry (who seem to be the only two who understand her), and her friendship with the Sandringham staff are all Portray Diana as not a princess, but as a person.
However, in a very different and unique way, Knight will make an interesting comparison with one of the most misjudged women in history-Anne Boleyn-the former Queen of England who married King Henry VIII .Annie appeared in Diana’s most desperate moment Spencer At the same time it arouses a sense of conspiracy and confusion. Not to mention, the appearance of Bolin can be very harsh, often destroying the audience’s focus on the story.
exist Spencer, It is recommended that Alistair Gregory (Timothy Spoel), an all-seeing and all-listening equestrian major, plant Eric Ives’ book “The Life and Death of the Martyrs” in her bedroom . Whether it was a coincidence or a mockery of Diana is still unclear. Either way, Diana continued to read the book and began to hallucinate Anne Boleyn. It even made Diana and Annie another person (yes, really).
Annie’s Join Spencer It shows that the spirit of the beheaded queen still exists, and history may repeat itself through Diana. In reality, however, the comparison with Spencer’s Anne Boleyn is trivial at best.
For those who may be a little confused about Bolin’s secondary plot, the comparison between her and Princess Diana makes sense to some extent. For example, the marriages of two women are very tense, they have become very influential figures, and they are both the daughters of earl married into the royal family. In addition, another striking similarity is that Anne Boleyn’s sister Mary is the mistress of King Henry VIII.Meanwhile, Diana’s sister Sarah Spencer (now McCorkdale) is dating Prince Charles.
Nevertheless, when you look closely at their lives, they are really different.
One of the main differences is that although Annie was married to King Henry VIII of England and became Queen of England after a complicated process of formal acceptance of the marriage (sorry, Catherine of Aragon), Diana married Prince Charles, who was on the throne of England. Obvious heir, he has not yet been crowned king.
Indeed, both Anne and Diana’s marriage were plagued by rumors of infidelity, and their affair eventually came to light. Anne and Henry were married on January 25, 1533, and on September 7, 1533, Anne gave birth to the future Queen Elizabeth I. After experiencing three miscarriages and failing to produce a male heir, by March 1536 Henry was wooing Jane Seymour, who would continue to be his third term only 10 days after Anne was executed in May 1536 Wife (will be introduced in detail later).
It is said that Anne also had several lovers, including Henry Percy and Sir Thomas Wyatt, although this has never been confirmed.
As for Diana, Prince Charles has always had a romantic connection with Camilla Parker Bowles.Diana even in a famous British Broadcasting Corporation panoramic In an interview with Martin Bashir in 1995, he said, “The three of us in this marriage are a bit crowded,” referring to the relationship between Charles and Parker Bowles.
Diana herself was also affected by rumors of infidelity, the most famous being Major James Hewitt. In the same BBC interview, in response to Hewitt’s claim that they had an affair, Diana confirmed the rumors, saying that they “have surpassed close friendship.” When asked if she was unfaithful, Diana said: “I adore him. Yes, I fell in love with him. But I was disappointed.”
Diana and Charles separated and officially divorced in August 1996. Like Henry VIII, Charles remarried and married Parker Bowles in April 2005.
The author Annabel Sandstone, who doesn’t believe that Annie and Diana are similar, explained Weekly newspaper“Anne is a few centuries ahead of her time: she is a modern woman, what she expects to achieve as a woman, but she has no ability to control her thoughts and her temper.
“Perhaps this is the similarity between her and Diana: they both want their husbands to be loyal, and they cannot remain silent when they are not. When Diana did this, we understood this and were shocked for her. No one was surprised. Annie has the same sympathy: she is a nouveau riche who has left the field where she was born. Only men can accept elite rule.”
Unfortunately, the lives of Annie and Diana did end in tragedy, but the situation was completely different.
Annie was charged with adultery, incest and treason. She is suspected of having sex with five other men, including her brother George. It is suspected that Annie and her lover conspired to overthrow her husband. According to Edward III’s Treason Act, Queen’s adultery is a crime of treason and is punishable by the death penalty. On May 19, 1536, Anne was beheaded at the Tower of London.

Sadly, Diana’s life also ended in tragedy. She was killed in a car accident in the Alma Bridge tunnel in Paris on August 31, 1997.
Her rumored partner Dodi Fayed and car driver Henri Paul were also killed in the collision. Diana’s bodyguard Trevor Reese-Jones survived the crash.
To discredit several conspiracies surrounding Diana’s death, the 2004 Metropolitan Police investigation was called Operation Paget The conclusion is that there is no evidence of a conspiracy to murder the Princess of Wales or Dodi Al-Fayed.
Despite all the differences, these two women will indeed be remembered as the two most influential women in British history. Annie became the puppet of the British Reformation, and Diana became an international icon often referred to as the “People’s Princess.” She is known for her high-profile charity work, impeccable sense of fashion and affinity.
But in the end, Annie became the queen and suffered an unimaginable fate in the hands of her husband, while Diana completely deviated from this path. She is independent, strong and influential. Of course, there are some superficial similarities, but the two women both lead completely different lives, and Diana controls her narrative, leaving the life of the royal family behind.
Spencer is now in theaters.
