The film is staged in a postmodern style, using a mixture of contemporary and medieval props, sets and clothing. (The date "1991" appears on a royal proclamation at one point.) The gay content of the play is also brought to the fore by Jarman, notably by adding a homosexual sex scene and by depicting Edward's army as gay rights protesters.
Plot
Once installed as king, Edward II summons his friend and lover, Piers Gaveston, to his side and showers him with gifts, titles and abiding love. Their relationship is fiery and passionate, but it is the focus of gossip and derision throughout the kingdom. Upon his return, Gaveston takes revenge on the Bishop of Winchester, who had been responsible for his banishment from England during the previous reign, by personally torturing him. Kent, Edwards’ brother, is the first to protest Gaveston's return. Many others feel the same way, including the Bishop of Winchester and Lord Mortimer, who is in charge of the army forces of the kingdom. Nevertheless, Edward defends his lover from his mounting enemies.
Edward II (1991) | Trailer | Steven Waddington | Kevin Collins | Andrew Tiernan
One of final masterpieces from director Derek Jarman, the iconic New Queer Cinema classic Edward II offers a radical, postmodern take on Christopher Marlowe’s Elizabethan tragedy. Newly crowned, the youthful King Edward II (Steven Waddington) sets the stage for palace revolt when he takes the ambitious Piers Gaveston (Andrew Tiernan) as his lover. Neglecting both his wife, Isabella (Tilda Swinton), and his royal responsibilities, Edward heaps titles and honors on Gaveston, while indulging in a life of ease and pleasure. Distraught with jealousy, Isabella conspires with her husband’s powerful enemies to depose the king and have her vengeance.

Oh, I'm looking for a way to where love grows And I stumble on the grass under my toes You look so stale as you stand in your pose Your eyes they shiver me coming from a word of lies Where feelings have to dress up in disguise The feelings you despise I'll outweird you any day Just by being normal The word is not that hard I say To me it all goes on and on and on Oh, I'm looking for a way to where love grows And I stumble on the grass under my toes You look so stale as you stand in your pose Your eyes they shiver me coming from a word of lies Where feelings have to dress up in disguise The feelings you despise I'll outweird you any day Just by being normal The word is not that hard I say
