Relevance to nursing: leadership and management styles---here is a list of films that educators can use to highlight various approaches to leadership and management, and apply these to nursing concepts.
A film of the early years of the reign of Elizabeth I of England and
her difficult task of learning what is necessary to be a monarch. As the character evolves, she changes her management style and instructors can help students understand the advantages and limitations of these approaches to leadership, which are universal. Some graphic violence related to torture scenes---this is, after all, the Elizabethan era.
A dramatization of the turbulent first years of Queen Victoria's rule, and her enduring romance with Prince Albert. Character evolves similarly to Elizabeth I, with a focus on how she allows others to influence her choices early on, but becomes self-confident and a true leader by the film's end.
