An eye-catching & feel-good movie.
Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris is based on the novel of the same name by Paul Gallico. It tells the story of Ada Harris(Lesley Manville). Ada Harris is a house help who is a widow. Mrs. Harris is mesmerized by a haute couture Christian Dior dress & decides that she must buy one & travels to Paris.
Mrs. Harris to Paris is an amazing film. Director Anthony Fabian has given us a movie that's fun, inspiring & emotional in all the right places. The cinematography by Felix Wiedemann captures both Paris & London in all their splendor. Lesley Manville is spectacular as Ada Harris. Manville anchors the film with her heartwarming performance. Isabelle Huppert is fantastic as Claudine Colbert. Huppert's uppity character is the perfect foil to Lesley Manville's kind protagonist. Lambert Wilson is great as Marquis de Chassagne. Alba Baptista is outstanding as Natasha. Lucas Bravo is excellent as Andre Fauvel. Ellen Thomas, Rose Williams & Jason Isaacs are superb as Violet Butterfield, Pamela Penrose & Archie, respectively. The supporting cast is awesome. Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris is a must watch for people of all ages. Go & have your spirits lifted!
