sassie said:But, Cromwell didn't say that Helen Mirren loathed Diana. He referred to people "working on the set", by which I think he meant the crew (according to the headline) and not his fellow actors.
Well in that case it really doesn't make sense. Forgive my French but who really cares if the makeup artist or the set designer or the gaffer hate Diana? They're not going to have influence over the movie's plot.
But if James says that a lot of the scenes that were shot were later cut for being too anti-royal, it looks like there was a tug of war between the screenwriter and the director and in these types of cinematic battles, the director always wins.
This particular director seemed to be more pro-Tony Blair than anti-Diana or anti-Queen.
