OBS! Import. Kontrollera att språk och textning passar dig.Biopic starring Naomi Watts as the eponymous public icon, Diana Princess of Wales. The film tells the story of Diana's final two years before her death in Paris in 1997. Shortly after her divorce from Prince Charles, Diana began dating the respected British Pakistani heart surgeon Hasnat Khan (Naveen Andrews), although this relationship was short-lived due to Khan's insistence on keeping his matters private. During this period of her life Diana undertook a variety of fund-raising and charity work which only strengthened her appeal and reputation in the public eye and her relationship with Dodi Fayed (Cas Anvar), son of Egyptian business magnate Mohamed Al-Fayed, also garnered much public attention. However, it is this relationship that would spell the end for Diana as both were killed in a car crash in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel in Paris - an event which has been a topic of debate ever since.Typ: DVD
Diana
Diana är en biografi över och en kärleksförklaring till prinsessan Diana, och dessutom ett feministiskt skärskådande av en klass och en konstitutionsform där kvinnor i första hand betraktas som avelsston och kuttersmycken. Burchills personliga intresse för Diana var känt före bilolyckan i Paris 1997, och hon var också den som myntade begreppet »the people's princess«. Diana är en av de tre första titlarna i Modernistas systerserie Feminista.Julie Burchill föddes i Bristol. Hon började som sjuttonåring på musiktidningen NME och har sedan dess bland annat medverkat i The Face och Vanity Fair. I dag är hon krönikör i The Guardian och oavsett om hon skriver om Josef Stalin, David Beckham, hemlösa eller Gucci Rush så är Julie Burchill en av världens roligaste människor.Pressröster:»Diana får sin upprättelse. Burchill stormar in i mål, helt utan en enda konstpaus, fotnot eller vidare hänvisning. Det fungerar därför att hon aldrig låtsas som om boken är större än hon själv.«Linna Johansson, Expressen»Hon tecknar ett porträtt av överklass-/adelsdamer som i princip förklarar att överklassen saknar varje tillstymmelse till jämställdhet; ditt jobb är att krysta fram ättlingar, beställa bordsdekorationer (läs: få någon att beställa bordsdekorationer åt dig) och vara tjusig. Det är kul.«Rebecka Gunnarsson, Borås Tidning
