Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris (2022)
Directed by Anthony Fabian this film based on the novel of the same name stars Lesley Manville, Isabelle Huppert, Lambert Wilson, Alba Baptista and Lucas Bravo. In the 1950s a working class British woman heads to Paris to buy a Dior dress.
This is right in the wheel house of the “sentimental, feel good but still class obsessed” of cinema that the British film industry loves to pump out. The plot is only marginally insulting to your intelligence at times, it really is just a bit too simplistic for my tastes. Still fun and with some lovely costumes.
3/5
