MISS PETTIGREW Frances McDormand gives an unforgettable performance as Miss Pettigrew, a British governess who, when unjustly dismissed from her position, lands an unexpected job as “social secretary” for a famous Amercian actress. The effervescent Amy Adams is irresistible as the endearingly dizzy starlet, and she creates superb comic chemistry with McDormand. Set in the thirties, the film also has a marvelous set and costume design. |
