Diana, review - Telegraph The major problem, predictably, comes with the dialogue, which involves characters telling each other things they already know. "I am a heart surgeon!" declares heart surgeon Khan. On another occasion: "You're the most famous woman in the world." Yes, we get it. Adapted from Kate Snell's book Diana: Her Last Love, first published in 2000, the film invents events in the couple's courtship. Some of these beggar belief: would Diana, arriving at Khan's empty, untidy flat, have started vacuuming frantically? Would the couple have walked around London parks so openly, without security protection? Still, Stephen Jeffreys" script touches most of the bases in Diana's later life: her complicity with royal correspondents and a few favoured paparazzi: her ability to be calculating yet still seem like a lonely, lost innocent; her sincere support for victims of land mines; and her affection for her two sons who, judging from this account, she rarely saw. In a welcome touch of restraint, the young actors playing princes William and Harry are seen only in long-shot. But ultimately, what's the point of Diana? It's hardly fascinating. It doesn't offer new facts about the Princess's life. And it certainly doesn't explain her complexity or contradictions. That would take a different, better film altogether.
