Il film non è, come suggerisce il titolo italiano, la biografia di Elisabetta d'Inghilterra, ma la storia di un suo fedele suddito che sventò un complotto ordito contro di lei dal re di Spagna Filippo II. Sono forse più memorabili i retroscena di questo film: Olivier e Vivien Leigh si innamorano sul set.
Queen Elizabeth is running this show. The men in her court should be thinking about how to add to the glory of the Elizabethan Age and how to foil those pesky Spanish who got far too much influence in England when her older sister Mary was on the throne after their father Henry VIII was succeeded by their sickly half brother. Elizabeth thinks Michael Ingolby can do great things. Michael is mostly thinking about one of Elizabeth's ladies in waiting, Cynthia. Soon his mind is on survival when Elizabeth sends him on a voyage to Spain.
