The Young Victoria (2009)
Inghilterra, 1837. La giovane principessa Vittoria, appena 17enne, si ritrova al centro della lotta dinastica per decidere chi sarà l'erede al trono d'Inghilterra. Suo zio, Re William, sta per morire e lei è la sua discendente diretta. L'unica persona a cercare di isolarla è sua madre, la duchessa del Kent. Quando arriva a farle visita suo cugino Alberto, figlio di Re Leopoldo del Belgio, Vittoria sa benissimo che il giovane presto o tardi chiederà la sua mano per assecondare la Ragion di Stato. Ma quanto lei è annoiata dalle bassezze di corte, tanto lui è stanco di essere manipolato e i due ragazzi diventano amici. Prima di ripartire, Alberto chiede a Vittoria il permesso di scriverle ma, nonostante le spinte di suo padre, decide di non tornare a trovarla finché lei non lo avrà invitato a Londra. Quando il Re muore, Vittoria viene incoronata Regina d'Inghilterra e il suo primo decreto consisterà nell'allontanare sua madre dal palazzo e nominare Lord Melbourne come suo consigliere.
