Delightful - Miss Potter review by CP Customer
What a gem this film turned out to be - not what I was expecting at all. Set in Victorian England, it traces the life of Beatrix Potter, author of the famous 'bunny books'. She turns out to be quite a determined character and ahead of her time in terms of what women were 'allowed' to do. There is a strong love story running throughout between Beatrix and her publisher. Renee and Ewan really make these roles come alive and there is an enjoyable chemistry between them.

Delightful film - Miss Potter review by RM
Was not expecting such a memorable film, it was superb and we enjoyed it very much. A good story when women were not expected to take control of their affairs, a real eye opener to the life of Beatrix Potter.
