| Description: | Queen Opens Parliament - First Films For the first time ever on films, the opening of Parliament by the Queen. In London, acted out again is the dramatic tableaux that symbolizes Britain's successful fusion of all the pomp and splendor of monarchy with a democratic government, a resplendent tradition-rich spectacle. Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip (?) ride in fancy royal carriage. Interior, 2 men open doors to reveal the queen and prince, queen in her crown and royal glory - wow. Ceremont, ritual, pageantry. Queen speaks from throne (nat sound). | |
