About Lord Elgin: Voice of the People
This short film tells the story of Lord Elgin, a man’s whose faith in a nation’s right to self-determination was stronger than the threat of the mob or his own fear of failure. Successor to Lord Durham, he established the principles on which Canadian government stands today.
Directed by Julian Biggs, Lord Elgin: Voice of the People leans on a strong ensemble — Andrew Allan, Sandra Scott, Lucien Watier — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about history titles of 1959.
