- 52
Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, known to later generations as the Queen Mum, was herself Queen of England during World War II, a time during which she helped her husband, King George VI, with his stuttering difficulties. The relationship was dramatized in 2010's The King's Speech, in which the Queen was played by Helena Bonham-Carter. She received an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress, while the film itself took the Oscar for Best Picture.
(#8) Judi Dench As Queen Victoria
Like both Elizabeths, Queen Victoria lived and reigned long enough for actresses of many ages to portray her. Judi Dench depicted an older Victoria, embarking on an unlikely friendship, in the 1997 film Mrs. Brown. The role won her a BAFTA award for Best Actress, and an Academy Award Nomination in the same category.
