8/10
Gosh, folks, since it's just 12.51 seconds long . . .

. . . do we really need a "plot summary"? Who is IMDb intended for, people with attention span deficit disorder (like the Ellen Degeneris character on FINDING NEMO)? I've only been registered on this site for a few days, but some of the things I already have seen here really makes a person wonder. Are long-time users paid somehow by the word? It takes longer to read some of the reviews than to actually watch the whole movie--twice!! And why is a "Parent's Guide" necessary for every single frame of film ever shot is the history of Planet Earth? I mean, if the title of the movie is VAMPIRE ZOMBIES vs. NAZI STRIPPERS, you hopefully wonnent be tempted to show it to your first grader. Will you? So with this film, if the title is THE EXECUTION OF MARY, QUEEN OF SCOTS do you really need a parents' guide to tell you anything else? Do you need an exact count of how many drops of blood are shed in Mary's beheading??

P.S.--The answer is: none that I could see, though it is amazing how seamless the transition from an actual person to an apparent chopping dummy is (given this was filmed 118 years ago). Though it is disillusioning to learn a guy played the queen, I still give this 8 points of 10, cuz I like docu-dramas, and this was the very first one!
