Miss Pettigrew Lives For a Day

I loved this movie! Amy Adams plays a lovable floozy who can’t decide between 3 men: the rich man, the man who can make her a star, and the poor man who loves her. Frances McDormand plays the morally conflicted “social secretary” who is desperate for a job. With WWII looming overhead, and the great soundtrack of big band and swing, and the lavish lifestyles of parties, luxurious furs, silks and satins and dripping chandeliers, it was a fun and engaging movie. Sure, it’s a little predictable, but aren’t all chick flicks, and isn’t that why we love them?
