  • Mrs. Brown
  • Acclaimed as one of the year's must-see films, MRS. BROWN is a riveting, true-life story of forbidden love and passion! Queen Victoria (Judi Dench -- TOMORROW NEVER DIES, GOLDENEYE) was the world's most powerful woman. Rugged Scotsman John Brown (Billy Connolly -- INDECENT PROPOSAL) was a lowly servant who looked after her horses. Yet when circumstances brought them together ... the result was a passionate friendship that scandalized a nation! With commanding performances from stars Dench and Connolly -- you're sure to find this motion picture outstanding and entertaining!
