Peter Morgan takes a second pass at Princess Diana’s death with The Crown season 6, but the Netflix show’s depiction makes his earlier movie better.

The Crown season 6 part 1 shines a spotlight on a 2006 movie's different approach to Princess Diana's death, rather than trying to outdo it.
The Crown season 6 essentially remakes The Queen's plot, which places pressure on the show to follow up the award-winning movie's success.
The Crown and The Queen have similarities in depicting Princess Diana's death aftermath but focus on different aspects, showcasing complementary perspectives.
