King Charles rolled out the green carpet this week as the great and the good arrived at Windsor Castle to watch a new film on his environmental campaigning.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Charles, 77, hosted the first film premiere in a royal residence as stars including Kate Winslet and Dame Judi Dench arrived for the screening, reports The Sun<\/a><\/i>.<\/p>\n

Also among the A-listers for the 90-minute documentary were Sir Rod Stewart and his wife Penny Lancaster as well as Benedict Cumberbatch and his other half Sophie Hunter.<\/p>\n

Adding extra star quality were Sir Kenneth Branagh and Stanley Tucci.<\/p>\n

Before the screening in Windsor\u2019s Waterloo Chamber, the audience stood for the King and Queen Camilla, who, in keeping with the theme, wore a green dress by Anna Valentine plus a brooch from the King\u2019s Foundation.<\/p>\n

Winslet, the film\u2019s narrator, said: \u201cYour Majesty, it is thanks to your great vision and foresight in protecting our natural world we\u2019re all here this evening\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cFilming may have taken place across a short six months, but Your Majesty I know that for you, this documentary has been a lifetime in the making.\u201d<\/p>\n

The documentary, Finding Harmony: A King\u2019s Vision<\/i>, explores the origins, evolution and scientific foundations of Charles\u2019 harmony philosophy as set out in a 2010 book.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

It follows him through the speeches he gave in his 20s on green issues and shows off his achievements at the royal estates of Highgrove and Sandringham and at Dumfries House, Scotland.<\/p>\n

Despite illustrating how he was years ahead of public opinion on the merits of growing and eating organic produce, the Amazon Prime Video film recalls how he was teased over his views.<\/p>\n

Winslet says: \u201cWhile explaining his passion for organic gardening to the press, Prince Charles made a comment that has haunted him ever since\u201d.<\/p>\n

It is a reference to a 1986 interview in which he said: \u201cI just come and talk to the plants, really \u2014 very important to talk to them, they respond\u201d.<\/p>\n

Ian Skelly, co-author of the King\u2019s book, Harmony: A New Way Of Looking At Our World<\/i>, said: \u201cThose criticisms really upset him\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe got treated very unfairly, seen very unfairly.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose of us that knew him better were quite upset by that. It was difficult to know how to respond. I really felt for him.\u201d<\/p>\n

While discussing organic growing, His Majesty is seen in the film admiring spuds growing in his gardens at Highgrove, Gloucestershire<\/p>\n

He says: \u201cIf you want a decent baked potato, which I love, you\u2019ve got to have the crispy skins\u201d.<\/p>\n

He is also filmed carrying a basket to collect eggs from a coop which has on its door a sign reading Cluckingham Palace.<\/p>\n

The film also features footage of Princes William and Harry with their father.<\/p>\n

And in it, dairy farmer Patrick Holden, CEO of the Sustainable Food Trust, tells the documentary: \u201cJamie Oliver said he (Charles) was a bit of a hippy and I think that\u2019s probably true\u201d.<\/p>\n

Charles is also seen watching archive footage of his campaigning speeches.<\/p>\n

Describing his harmony philosophy, he says: \u201cIt all boils down to the fact that we are actually nature ourselves. We are a part of it, not apart from it, which is really how things are being presented for so long\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaybe, by the time I shuffle off this mortal coil, there might be a little more awareness of the need to bring things back together.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also recounts that he \u201cwasn\u2019t going to be diverted\u201d from his campaigning despite the criticism he faced over the decades.<\/p>\n

A spokesman for the King said the film was not a conventional royal documentary.<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cThere are no golden carriages here; no glittering crowns or crimson robes\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cInstead, this is a deeply personal exploration of ideas that have shaped His Majesty\u2019s life and work: the interconnectedness of all things, the wisdom of traditional knowledge, and the belief that we can build a future that works in partnership with nature.\u201d<\/p>\n

The film, produced in conjunction with the King\u2019s Foundation, is believed to be his first documentary with a streaming platform.<\/p>\n

It will be available in more than 240 countries and territories next month. The Harmony<\/i> book will be republished in March.<\/p>\n
