Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris

This movie melted my heart and then made a dessert out it!!! Totally flawless with a beautiful story chockfull of hope for all despite the loss of loved ones and cruel treatment by others. The lighting, cinematography, acting, sets, set decoration, costumes, etcetera etcetera.... FLAWLESS!!! I hope MRS HARRIS GOES TO NEW YORK is made into a film!!!

Most embarrassingly stupid, cringe-worthy, ludicrous and nausea-inducing movie I've seen in a while. I don't have much to say about it, but since the site demands more than 600 characters in a review, I'd say that I don't know who could watch this and not be rolling their eyes constantly: a happy-go-lucky cleaning lady with a heart of gold, an unabashed optimistic attitude and an incredible good luck embarks in a ridiculous journey to acquire a Dior dress, and while she is at it, she will fix the lives of everyone around her, and even save Christian Dior from going broke...in a week! It should be advertised as fantasy, and even then, it would still be too silly and unbelievable. How this movie got such a high rating is beyond me, but that seems to be the trend in IMDb...

Mrs. Harris is maybe not the hero we deserve, but the one we need. Everywhere she goes, her kindness spreads like an infectious disease; I'm pretty sure a bit spilled out of the screen and got some of us in the audience. She handles life with such an authenticity, It's marvelous, refreshing. There's nothing too unexpected about this film, but certainly not a waste of time. The world needs to go see Mrs Harris!

This is one of the most charming movies I've ever seen. Lesley Manville's execution of her role of someone that is optimistic, attentive, considerate, and hopeful, suffers a few setbacks, yet still have the strength to carry on and stand up when it matters the most is Oscar worthy. A lot of substance with this actor. She is also surrounded by a supporting cast with is rich in talent, experience and timing. OK, it has Hollywood ending written all over the place but it is such a fun movie. And this is coming from someone that favors insane fantasies, comedies galore, sci-fi and everything else not of this world.

This film was not on my radar at all. But I watched it. And loved it. I thought the acting was on point. The directing was beautifully done, the movie reminded me of a film from the 50s or 60s. The writing was well done and pretty much perfect. The film had a nice feel to it making it easily rewatchable. Overall its definitely a under the radar film, but it should be watched. Its highly enjoyable for the whole family and is a very sweet film.
