A cute sensible film about a low class old widow who chases a dream of purchasing a high end dress. Seems bland the plot, but this a good story about the truth and deep meaning behind something that is simple on the cover. The plot development is good but a bit sloppy as it makes the audience think "that's it," but thats the point. The characters and attention to their detail makes the audience feel close to them. Overall this wasn't really my speed but its a well made film.

It's a fun adorable movie. There are solid themes and motifs surrounding a story that admittedly isn't all too fresh. But the right packaging can make sunday dinner taste like a one star meal. This isn't the great movie of all time or even really award worthy. But it is effective without being preachy. Enjoyable without being overly saccharine.

If you've always wanted to watch a two-hour Dior commercial, you'll find it in "Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris". In the end, however, I didn't mind it all that much. Lesley Manville as the lead is too likeable for that. And the rest of the cast does a good job, too. There are not many rough edges in the film; as I said, it feels like a commercial. But since it is quite entertaining and heartwarming, you can definitely enjoy the movie. Whether you come out of it with a good feeling at the end certainly depends primarily on your own expectations. For my part, I was moderately satisfied.

Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris is one of those movies that grandam watches, and after the film is over, she will say something like, “Oh, that was lovely, wasn’t it?” Either way, it’s sweet.

I don’t know if I would have been quite so anxious to see this movie, or if I would have liked it as much, if Lesley Manville was not playing Mrs. Harris, but fortunately she was.

Lesley Manville is clearly having some good fun playing the eponymous, widowed, wartime cleaner. One of her clients, "Lady Dant" (Anna Chancellor) is not so hot when it comes to settling her bills, but she does have a Dior dress - and at £500 this is a dream for "Mrs. Harris". Determined to have on More
