Summary: One of the best movies... ever!
Comment: I watched this movie for the first time in 1999, after I accidentally picked it up from a public library. Even though I don't like to use superlatives as I inevitably end up changing my mind, this movie is undoubtedly one of the best, if not the best movie I have ever seen. I still haven't changed my mind for the past 10 years!
It's just beautiful... like a postcard. It takes place between London and Paris in the 1950's, with all their charm. Part of the story takes place in the House of Dior in Paris where Mrs Harris (promounced 'Arris by her French friends) tries to purchase the dress of her dreams after she worked very hard to save every penny of its price. A tender love story unfolds as a subplot between a socially awkward accountant and a pretty model. Omar Sherif's role as a "Ministre Sans Portfolio" who is estranged from his only daughter is also charming. Mrs. 'Arris touches and changes the lives of all those she meets in Paris.
The only drawback is that the movie is too short... only 90 minutes!
I wish it was twice that long, or that there were a sequel.
I don't understand why it hasn't been released in DVD yet.

Summary: Yup Yup Very Good
Comment: Item came promptly, neatly, and worked fine. I love this movie. It meant more to me as a kid though, strangely enough. I think it's just a really simple flick and touched me more as a child for that reason. It's still classic though and I wish it were better-known!

Summary: Great chick flick
Comment: I think I saw this film originally on the Hallmark Channel. It was such a charming movie and being set in 1950s Paris really lends to the charm. Nothing like the early post-WWII years in Paris! Lansbury is a great actress, so accomplished and versatile. I own the VHS tape but to desperately would love to "trade" it in for the DVD version. Why is so much junk out in DVD and gems like this are not? Beats me. Studio heads, please re-release this to DVD.

Summary: Great movie for girls and fashion lovers!
Comment: I saw this movie several times with my sisters. I especially enjoyed it because of the clothing fashion. The story line is rather thin, but good. It centers around a poor English lady who saves her money for a Dior dress. By the end of the story, she fullfills her dream (not without difficulty!) and also succeeds in bringing together a Dior model and her admirer.
This same little lady seems to have the same "healing" effect on nearly everybody else that she meets during her stay in Paris.
It is a lovely story, with great clothing! :) - However, for a guy it would probably be rather boring...
