Description
Directed by acclaimed, multi-award-winning filmmaker Peter Morley, 25 Years is an impressionistic survey of the years from the Queen’s accession to the throne in 1952 through to her Silver Jubilee in 1977, featured here as a brand-new High Definition remaster from original film elements in both its original widescreen theatrical and fullscreen as-filmed aspect ratios.
Combining archive and contemporary footage – including that of the royal visit to Canada and the US in 1976, the bicentenary year of American independence – the film explores the monarchy through a quarter-century that saw the conquest of Everest, the development of television as a mass medium, the first supersonic flight and mankind’s first steps on another world.
Through good times and bad, and tumultuous changes for better or for worse, one factor remained constant: the monarchy, in the person of Queen Elizabeth II, provided a continuity and stability which this film celebrates in her Silver Jubilee year.
