REVIEW: Diana in Love: An Intimate Love Letter to the People's Princess
Shanti Fiennes' impressive portrayal could be competing with Elizabeth Debicki for a Golden Globe
'Diana in Love' is not just a love letter to the woman herself but an intimate 'what if' and a chance to reflect on not just the princess's choices in life but our own...Shot in a reality TV documentary style 'Diana In Love' stars Shanti Fiennes who is a member of another family dynasty (her dad is composer Magnus Fiennes and her uncles are actors Ralph and Joseph)...What Shanti brings to her portrayal of the world's most famous woman is impressive - and if Roske has his way his Diana could be competing with The Crown's Elizabeth Debicki for a Golden Globe...Sometimes wistful, sometimes demanding, Shanti's Diana combines the perfect blend of joy, apprehension and melancholy. Her voice is particularly startling. Close your eyes and you'd be hard pressed to decide who was the real Diana and who was the actor...Roske's direction ensures that it's lingering and sparse. But it's Shanti's light touch on such a heavily-rotated subject, which expertly explores an imagined side of Diana, that makes you yearn for an alternate outcome to an ultimately tragic story. - Lisa Marks, Medium
"Shanti Fiennes, the niece of Ralph and Joseph Fiennes, has the chance to establish herself alongside them as box office royalty with Diana In Love." - Richard Eden, Daily Mail
"The film is romantic and melancholy but mostly just brilliant." - Marco Spagnoli, Giornale dello Spettacolo
'Diana In Love' is a fascinating film that mixes fiction and reality, showing the often overlooked fun times of Diana's life, shown in an impressive mixed-media format." - M. Bakuradze, Imedi TV
