I've just watched Miss Potter which is, by far, the cutest movie I've seen in a tremendously long time. I hadn't even heard of the movie until I saw it's preview on something I rented last week and people if you haven't heard of it either, take my word for it and go rent it.
The movie is about the author Beatrix Potter and just the sweetest little thing you will see this month, if not this year. It is the very definition of heartwarming and I am not ashamed to tell you that I pretty much kept the tissues next to me the entire time and not because it was sad but because it was so refreshingly happy that I found myself laughing and crying at the same time.
The friendship that develops between Beatrix and Millie reminded me so much of the friendships shown in my favorite movie of all time: Anne of Green Gables. And that, I assure you, is a complement as to how well the relationships developed in a short time.
So, I've devised a system for rating movies... a system that you will most likely only see here on LOC.
I am going to give Miss Potter four out of five Matthew McConaughey heads :P I highly recommend this movie. It was just so sweet that I would feel bad for you if you didn't get to see it. And it's totally safe to watch with the kiddos.
