Movie Reviews of Miss Potter
Movie Review: Miss Potter
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent presentation of Beatrix Potter's life and publication of her many pictures and stories with 'living' animals and life's experiences. Artwork is beautiful; historical setting is accurate; photography is magnificent. Older children, and adults, will thoroughly enjoy the portrayal of parents who want the best for their children, but who restrict their expressions of individual personalities and talents. Should be in every library of worthwhile DVDs.
Summary of Miss Potter
Miss Potter walks that fine line between charming and cloying with pleasing sure-footedness. Apple-cheeked Renee Zellweger (Bridget Jones' Diary) once again slips into a British accent to play writer/illustrator Beatrix Potter, the creator of Peter Rabbit. Potter, born into wealth, fought the disapproval of her high society mother to do something as crass as publish a book...and to fall in love with her publisher, Norman Warne (Ewan McGregor, previously teamed with Zellweger in Down With Love). Unfortunately, their love runs into something worse than upper-class stuffiness. Miss Potter skips through Potter's life a bit too briskly at times, but Zellweger's thankfully restrained performance, McGregor's infinite charm, and some beautiful shots of the English landscape keep the movie grounded and engaging. Also featuring a crackling supporting performance by Emily Watson (Breaking the Waves) as Warne's sister Millie. --Bret Fetzer(Drama) The story of Beatrix Potter, the author of the beloved and best-selling children's book, "The Tale of Peter Rabbit", and her struggle for love, happiness and success.
