Review of Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day (2008) by Kathleen C — 31 Jan 2016
One of our family classics. For a champagne comedy it has a surprising amount of layers. The performances are fantastic, and everything happens under the shadow of WW2 starting just the next day.
It really has the feel of dancing on the Titanic with the bright-eyed people enjoying their pleasures as the darkness comes closer. we've seen it several times and still catch telling details that add to the narrative.
Full stars. Great film.
