I’m so happy that you liked it, Lisa! And your party sounds like so much fun…what a worthy way to celebrate the release of such a beautiful film.
Your menu sounds great … little cookies or scones and whipped cream are always nice, if you think you’ll need anything else. And cheese straws make for a bite of something savory. But simplicity is always best…

Lanier,
I just saw Miss Potter tonight with my mom, after being afire to see it due to your review. The images were like a dream but sparklingly real, and the story was simple, sweet, and well-rounded. I could see why especially you liked it, with the same era as Anne of Green Gables and the strong sisterly friendships portrayed. Thank you so much for the recommendation! I am planning a party to watch the DVD upon release with some high school girls and friends. For the menu I was considering muffins, lemonade, iced tea, strawberries, and carrots; do you have any other suggestions?
To God be all glory,
Lisa of Longbourn

Lanier, I do so enjoy your writings. I haven’t previously commented, but just HAD to with today’s writing! I, too, went to see Miss Potter and was utterly enthralled by it. Sadly, it is rare nowadays to be able to watch a film which contains no profanity, etc. I came out of Miss Potter glowing with vitality for life! So much so that I have booked a long weekend in the Lake District next month – shall I give ‘Hill Top’ your love?!

I have been interested in this movie ever since I heard about it a couple months ago. Your review has made me even more interested…particularly since I know so little about Beatrix Potter. It appears that it isn’t showing in any of the theaters around here, though, which is quite disappointing.

Yes, it has been quite a while, Deb!
I’m hoping to be back on a regular posting schedule now that both NaNoWriiMo and the holidays are behind us…
Hope you like the movie…you, too, IslandSparrow!

Welcome back, Lanier! I”ve missed your posts lo these past weeks (and weeks, and weeks, and…). Thanks for the movie review, too.

Oh I can hardly wait!! I was holding my breath – hoping – hoping – hoping that it would be well done.

Now I know that it is!

Thanks so much Lanier!!

I was so happy to see a new Lanier post on Bloglines today.

I’ve already posted a link to your review on my blog. I had been wondering if Miss Potter was a good movie after hearing about it last week.
