Full Plot Details

In 1902, in London, spinster Beatrix Potter (Renée Zellweger) lives with her bourgeois parents. Her snobbish mother, Helen Potter (Barbara Flynn), had introduced several bachelors to Beatrix until she was twenty-years-old, but she had turned them all down. Beatrix Potter has been drawing animals and making up stories about them since she was a child, but her parents have never recognized her as an artist. One day, Miss Potter offers her stories to a print house, and a rookie publisher, Norman Warne (Ewan McGregor), who is delighted with her tales, publishes her first children's book. This success leads Norman to publish two other books, and Miss Potter meanwhile becomes the best friend of his single sister Millie Warne (Emily Watson). Soon Beatrix and Norman fall in love with each other, but Helen does not accept that her daughter would marry a "trader". However, Beatrix's father Rupert Potter (Bill Paterson) proposes that his daughter spend the summer with his wife and him in their country house in Lake District, and if she is still interested in Norman after the summertime, he would bless their marriage. When Miss Potter stops receiving letters from Norman, she is disappointed. Then one day she receives a letter from Millie explaining what had happened to Norman.

Movie Reviews

Boxoffice Magazine - 10/10 by Wade MajorAs with any good story, there are ups and downs and some rather dramatic emotional shifts in Miss Potter that don't always hew to one's wants or expectations. But it's ever a gentle and rewarding ride, safely guided throughout.
Reel.com - 10/10 by Pam GradyTake the trouble to find this film. It's worth it, if only to reacquaint oneself with the magic that flowed from the pen of Beatrix Potter, or to once again experience the easy rapport between Zellweger and McGregor.
San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Mick LaSalleIn every way, Miss Potter is a very beautiful thing.
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette - 9/10 by Philip MartinDeftly navigating the line between the sublime and the saccharine ...
Compuserve - 9/10 by Harvey S. KartenA Charlotte's Web for adults. Pure delight.
Baltimore Sun - 9/10 by Michael SragowIt's first-class entertainment for bookish lads and lasses of all ages - and for those who never have or never will crack a paperback's spine. And it might inspire today's nascent artists to open up their sketch-pads as well as their hearts and minds.
ReelzChannel.com - 9/10 by Heather HuntingtonA Beatrix Potter biopic: So much more than just cute and fuzzy bunnies.
Laramie Movie Scope - 9/10 by Robert RotenDirector Chris Noonan ('Babe') gives us a story with the right balance of humor, pathos and romance.
Murphy's Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Ted MurphyThere's nothing inherently wrong with MISS POTTER. It's just a throwback to the biopics of the 1930s and 40s and in some ways it may seem progressive to contemporary audiences.
Detroit News - 9/10 by Tom LongDespite Noonan's balancing social friction and fantasy, Miss Potter entrances and delights throughout. It's a beautifully made fairy tale with roots in reality, and all the more satisfying as a result.
