'Spencer' film on Princess Diana, to release in India on 19 Nov



Impact Films announces the theatrical release of the current year’s one of the most talked-about and highly rated English language films, titled Spencer by Pablo Larrain across the Nation on 19th November. It features Kristen Stewart in the lead role of Princess Diana and Jack Farthing as Prince Charles, beautifully supported by Sally Hawkins and Timothy Spall.  

Spencer concentrates on three turbulent days in the life of Diana during the Christmas of 1991 where Diana and her family are staying at Sandringham, a well known royal tradition. Over Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day, Diana realises that her marriage is breaking down and doesn’t want to be the future queen. The biopic gives the audience a glimpse into the character of Princess Diana whizzing through many official engagements she attended, a frosty dynamic with the royal family, and plenty of emotional scenes exploring the late Princess’s vulnerability and how she struggled to fit in. 

The film debuted at the Venice Film Festival. It then screened at several renowned film festivals like Toronto, Telluride, New York, etc., before getting released in the United States and the United Kingdom on 5th Nov. It has already emerged as the frontrunner in the upcoming Academy Awards for the Best Actress for Kristen Stewart. It is likely to land nominations in some other categories as well. On playing Diana, Kristen Stewart says,” At that moment, we’re not trying to depict what happened in there, but it is, maybe, an idea of what happened inside of her.” 

Chilean director Pablo Larrain has created several flicks with strong female characters and is known for Oscar-nominated film Jackie. Pablo, who has been fascinated and had been thinking about making a film on this subject for a while, believes, ”Everything our Diana sees is a reflection of her memories, her fears and desires and maybe even her illusions.” 

Spencer is a biopic that excels in every filmmaking department, including Script by  Steven Knight, Cinematography by World famous Claire Mathon, Costume Designer  Jacqueline Durran, Composer Jonny Greenwood, Makeup and hair design by Wakana Yoshihara and Production Design by Guy Hendrix Dyas. The film was shot entirely in Germany and the UK.  

Spencer is being brought to Indian Screens through Distribution and Production House  Impact Films. They have made a name for themselves as the leading Distributor of Independent  Award Winning World Cinema titles in India like Parasite, Another Round, A Fantastic  Woman, Capernaum, Portrait of a lady on Fire, etc. According to its founder Ashwani  Sharma, “Lady Diana has been so popular in India for decades that SPENCER is an obvious choice not only for fifty-year-olds but also a perfect vehicle for Millennials and Generation Z to know about this piece. Of history which is so sensational and magnificent.”
