And this achieved, neatly edited documentary tells us nothing that we don’t already know. What it does, nevertheless, is supply a compressed chronology of Diana’s remedy by the media and her relationship with the individuals of the UK. Like Asif Kapadia’s Amy – a portrait of a girl who proved to be equally fascinating to the press – the movie is solely composed of archive materials. Combining information footage, interviews, blustering commentators and vox pops, the movie serves as an accusatory finger pointed at public appetites and the press that fed them, and a cautionary story.
The Princess is in cinemas from 30 June
