Miss Potter (2006)

From NetFlix:

Blending lush animation sequences with live-action drama, director Chris Noonan constructs this biopic about the personal life of beloved children’s author and illustrator Beatrix Potter. Featuring the Academy Award-winning Renee Zellweger as the title character and co-starring Emily Watson and Ewan McGregor, the film traces Potter’s private life as well as her contributions to literature such as the timeless “Tale of Peter Rabbit.”

Every now and then you see a movie that fits its genre perfectly. “Miss Potter”, the life of Beatrix Potter, is such a film. Renee Zellweger is Beatrix and Ewan mcGregor fits the role of Norman Warne to a tee.

Warning: this movie is a tear-jerker at times.

This movie is for everyone, children invited. No violence, no sex. It is also the blooming of a Victorian protected daughter into an independent creative artist and environmentalist.

Don’t Miss It.
