Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris

In partnership with the House of Dior, Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris tells the story of a widowed cleaning lady in 1950s London who falls madly in love with a couture Dior dress and decides that she must have one of her own. After working, starving and gambling to raise the funds to pursue her dream, Mrs Harris embarks on an adventure to Paris which not only changes her own outlook, but the very future of the House of Dior.

“This is Manville’s film, a too-rare star vehicle in which one of England’s most invaluable actors carries us effortlessly on the wings of Mrs. Harris’ dream of egalitarian elegance.” ~David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter

“Lit from within by the sunny disposition of its main character, Mrs Harris Goes To Paris is a lovely, modest ode to kindness, anchored by Lesley Manville’s considered performance as a housekeeper who is tired of feeling invisible.” ~Tim Grierson, Screen Daily
