I am not normally a Renee Zellweger fan. She has squinty little eyes. But as Miss Potter, she does a great job and is easy to love. Beatrix has admirable personality traits such as determination, strength, and independence. She is a bit of a loner, though, with her father and imaginary animals being her only friends. Despite this, Beatrix's father, Rupert Potter, is so supportive of his daughter’s artistic talents and imagination. Their relationship is such a tender part of the movie. And of course, I loved seeing Beatrix's drawings which are enchanting and sweet.
Ewan McGregor is wonderful as a timid and under-appreciated neophyte book publisher who is smitten with Beatrix. Their love story is believable and hoped for. And their courtship is so proper. I wish that young adults today were as refined.
I wholeheartedly recommend this movie! Grab some popcorn and plan a movie night.

I loved this movie too. I think I also Liked it because when I went to England we actually went to her little house. It was awesome.
This is one of your dad's favorite movies also. He, like, Kelli has also been to her home.
I thought the movie was delightful.
That is because I was with him when we went to her home! It was with the Literary tour from Ricks. Have you guys seen "The Queen" I liked that one too. Also, read any good books lately. I need an updated list of good books.
