وقتی که فیلم "عصر طلائی" را ساختم، این داستان یک نویسنده بود. زنی که از طرف فیلیپ دوم فرانسه تهدید شده بود و به جنگ میرفت، عاشق والتر رلی شد. 
When I made the sequel to "Elizabeth," here was a story that the writer was telling: A woman who was threatened by Philip II and was going to war, and was going to war, fell in love with Walter Raleigh.
