Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris

Very light. Entertaining. Usually there are plots, tensions, twists, sadness, emotions, intensity which keeps us on the edge. This one is different! Might be a little bland for some. It shows us what actually movies are made up for....pure entertainment. If u have had a long day or any need any refreshing experience this is the one. Please watch it without any extra expectations!

Filmed back in 2020, a segment of modern history I think we'd all rather forget, Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris is a cheery, sugary, feelgood film about the power and insight the average person can have, and how status and wealth doesn't necessarily make you wiser or more knowledgeable. Lesly Manville is perfectly cast as the working class war widow that always puts a brave face on things, floating through life, unsure of her purpose in the wider world. Her trip to the French capital to buy a Christina Dior dress is a journey of self-discovery not just for her, but for those around her too. It always strains credulity for me when a native English speaker goes to another country and everyone there speaks the language fluently, even to the point of understanding idioms without batting an eye. I can see how some might dismiss it as lightweight, and the story trope of every conflict being solved by a speech backed by sombre piano music is a pretty annoying one. But the sheer likeability of the lead character, the interactions she has and the good she does almost unintentionally definitely make it a worthwhile viewing experience. Just like its titular character, don't expect too much, and you wont be disappointed.

great film really well done great costume design great acting i loved this movie sweet ending

Although there was some excellent cinematography, incredible sets, and impressive acting the whole production was undermined by the a breathtakingly cheesy and silly storyline. Why would an educated and sophisticated aristocrat, or an assertive and stylish manager working for Christian Dior, have the slightest bit of interested in a feckless and deluded Mrs Mop?

Predictable but that's not surprising. The issue really is that it just doesn't have enough good character scenes to sustain itself.

I haven't added a new favorite film to my very small list in a very long time. Today I add one more with Mrs Harris Goes to Paris.
