Queen Elizabeth has a suitor from France. Duke Alencon seemingly does not have the looks but he certainly has the charm.
Her courtiers are aghast that Elizabeth might marry a Frenchman.
When Elizabeth does not hear from the Duke. She sends Sir Francis Drake to investigate.
The Duke is domineered by her mother the French Queen. She even imprisons him.
Drake soon finds himself in danger. The French Queen is in no mood for an interfering busybody from England.
Pamela Brown gives an imposing performance as the French Queen. Even from the way she is framed. The director has given some thought to the way she is portrayed. Ruthless and mean.
I thought the ending was a disappointment. The Duke is just shown to be a fool.
