The people we meet here, as in a children’s game, are split into goodies and baddies. What Larraín wants to make thumpingly clear, though, is that Diana is now a soul adrift, wretched in her marriage to Prince Charles (Jack Farthing) and all but ostracized by his relations.Īnyone who endured a film like “Diana” (2013)-a starchy royal bio-pic, with Naomi Watts-will gather, within minutes, that “Spencer” is going to be far more elastic, not to say expressionist, in regard to the rules of the genre. She gets lost along the way and stops to ask for directions, admitting, “I’ve absolutely no idea where I am.” This is unlikely, since she should know the area well she was born and raised on the Sandringham Estate. Diana travels there alone, in a Porsche, without a security detail. (No year is specified, but I would guess 1991.) Most of the action takes place in and around Sandringham House, the royal residence in the county of Norfolk. It is written by Steven Knight, directed by Pablo Larraín, and described at the outset as “a fable from a true tragedy”-fancy talk for “We kind of made this stuff up.” The time frame is concise: Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and December 26th. “Spencer” is a rum concoction, starring Kristen Stewart as the late Princess of Wales. “Let’s go and see a film about your mother.” Meghan won’t watch “The Addams Family 2,” because it reminds her of lunch at Windsor Castle. Harry won’t watch “Venom: Let There Be Carnage,” because it reminds him of the British press.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, mooching around their Montecito stronghold and desperate to get out for the evening, are picking a movie to see.
