Mary Queen Of Scots is hitting cinemas and the movie beautifully depicts the life of Queen Elizabeth and Mary Queen Of Scots on screen.
Throughout this video I will be breaking down everything that you need to know about the movie as well as some of the real life events that happened after the credits roll.
There will of course be heavy spoilers so if you haven’t seen the film yet then I highly recommend that you turn off now.

Mary Queen Of Scots: Ending Explained
The year is 1561 and we follow Mary Stuart as she returns to reclaim her throne in Scotland. Mary, the only surviving legitimate child of King James V, was six days old when her father died and she became a Queen. At the tender age of 16 she married the King Of France and was widowed at 18 before deciding to return to France to take back her birth right.
Stopping this is Queen Elizabeth, who currently rules over the country. In real life Elizabeth was the daughter of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn and after her mother was beheaded, she spent the majority of her Childhood in the tower of London. Elizabeth rightfully so is protective over her throne and this throws her into conflict with Mary.
There is a lot to admire from the two as they are very fiercly driven by one another and the two women both admire the competitiveness of their opposition even though they are their rivals. The film is filled with treachery and manipulation as the two battle it out for the throne and both the leads deliver Oscar worthy performances throughout.
Historical buffs that know the backstory will know that in real life Queen Elizabeth never married and throughout her life did not produce any heirs. This is beautifully depicted in the film and Elizabeth gives the reasoning that she wishes to remain alone as she will not be beholden to another man. Juxtaposing this, Mary sees marriage as a way to move up the ranks of society and those who are informed on the subject know that in real life she ended up marrying Lord Darnley.
Unfortunately, Elizabeth’s paranoia and jealousy gets the better of her and she eventually frames Mary and implicates her in the Babington Plot. The Babington Plot was a conspiracy that planned to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I and put Mary, Queen of Scots, in her place. This is because at the time, Britain was warring over what was the correct way to worship God between Protestants and Catholics and as Elizabeth was the former and Mary, the latter, it held grand implications.
Mary is offered the chance to absolve herself by giving a public apology but she refuses which leads to her trial and execution. Mary dies safe in the knowledge that her son, James The 6th and Later First, would take the throne upon Elizabeth’s death.
What makes this film so tragic and endearing is that you feel like Elizabeth is slowly driven insane over the course of it. After a bout of smallpox, Elizabeth is left scarred and due to vanity covers herself with toxic makeup that leads to her balding prematurely. The reason for her ghostly white appearance is because during Medieval times, being white and pale was seen as a symbol of wealth whereas being tanned meant that you spent time in the son, most likely working all day.
