Full Plot Details

Recently widowed well-to-do Mrs. Laura Henderson (Dame Judi Dench) is at a bit of a loose end in inter-war London. On a whim, she buys the derelict Windmill theatre in the West End and persuades impresario Vivian Van Damm (Bob Hoskins) to run it, despite the fact the two don't seem to get along at all. Although their idea of a non-stop revue is at first a success, other theatres copy it and disaster looms. Laura suggests they put nudes in the show, but Van Damm points out that the Lord Chamberlain, Lord Rowland Baring, 2nd Earl of Cromer (Christopher Guest), who licenses live shows in Britain, is likely to have something to say about this. Luckily, Mrs. Henderson is friends with him.

Movie Reviews

Zap2it.com - 10/10 by Dan FienbergThe film has its greatest spark when Hopkins and Dench are on screen together and those moments are far too rare in its second half.
Los Angeles Daily News - 10/10 by Glenn WhippA not-so- grand star vehicle for the Grand Dame.
Modamag.com - 10/10 by Susan GrangerIt's a classy, laugh-out-loud crowd pleaser with dual tour-de-force performances by Judi Dench and Bob Hoskins.
culturevulture.net - 10/10 by Arthur LazereAn opportunity missed for an entertainment of more substance, but Frears keeps it light and Dench keeps it afloat for a charming and stylish, if essentially forgettable, excursion into British nostalgia.
jackiekcooper.com - 9/10 by Jackie K. CooperJudi Dench shines but her movie is a little sketchy
Laramie Movie Scope - 9/10 by Robert RotenMainly an excuse for the entertainment industry to toot its own horn, again.
Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by Michael PhillipsA dear film, sentimental and fond, full of beautifully acted British resolve.
ColeSmithey.com - 9/10 by Cole SmitheyHoskins and Dench share a unique chemistry that pierces the story's heavy-handed construction.
New York Post - 9/10 by Lou LumenickConstantly battling, Hoskins and Dench have terrific chemistry together.
ReelViews - 9/10 by James BerardinelliIt offers a feel-good experience, but without the heavy dose of schmaltz that often accompanies such a production.
