Her grandmother the Queen (Julie Andrews) devotes time and effort to coaching her to take the throne so she herself can abdicate, and she gradually changes into an A list princess who attracts media attention and all the A list boys she can handle. Julie Andrews does a competent job of being regal, despite the ludicrous premise that she didn't even tell her grandaughter of her heritage until she was 15. Some cute and touching scenes develop ...
