Opening on March 7th is “Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day,” a film that stars Frances McDormand, Amy Adams, Shirley Henderson, Lee Pace and Mark Strong. Here’s the synopsis:
In 1939 London, Miss Guinevere Pettigrew (played by Ms. McDormand) is a middle-aged governess who finds herself once again unfairly dismissed from her job. Without so much as severance pay, Miss Pettigrew realizes that she must – for the first time in two decades – seize the day. This she does, by intercepting an employment assignment outside of her comfort level – as "social secretary." Arriving at a penthouse apartment for the interview, Miss Pettigrew is catapulted into the glamorous world and dizzying social whirl of an American actress and singer, Delysia Lafosse (Amy Adams). Within minutes, Miss Pettigrew finds herself swept into a heady high-society milieu – and, within hours, living it up.
Taking the "social secretary" designation to heart, she tries to help her new friend Delysia navigate a love life and career, both of which are complicated by the three men in Delysia’s orbit; devoted pianist Michael (Lee Pace), intimidating nightclub owner Nick (Mark Strong), and impressionable junior impresario Phil. Miss Pettigrew herself is blushingly drawn to the gallant Joe, a successful designer who is tenuously engaged to haughty fashion maven Edythe (Shirley Henderson) – the one person who senses that the new "social secretary" may be out of her element, and schemes to undermine her. Over the next 24 hours, Guinevere and Delysia will empower each other to discover their romantic destinies.
So to help promote the movie, we’ve been provided with 5 movie clips and a featurette. In the next week or so we’ll have some interviews with some of the cast, until then, enjoy the clips.
Again, “Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day” opens March 7th.
