Gorgeous cinematography and scenery highlight this poignant, captivating, factually inspired, witty, well-acted, star-studded (Sir Michael Gambon, Eddie Izzard, Tim Pigott-Smith, Olivia Williams, and Simon Callow), 112-minute Stephen Frears film based on journalist Shrabani Basu's novel Victoria & Abdul: The True Story of the Queen's Closest Confidant about the unusual friendship that develops between spirited Muslim Indian clerk Abdul Karim (Ali Fazal) and feisty, stubborn, 81-year-old Queen Victoria (Dame Judi Dench) when he leaves his family in Agra, India, in 1887 and travels with a reluctant friend (Adeel Akhtar) to England to present the queen with a valuable ceremonial coin and ends up becoming her teacher, spiritual advisor, and confidante after he dared to look at her.
