Synopsis
Unemployed and homeless, Miss Pettigrew (Frances McDormand) lands employment as a “social secretary” to triple-timing, flightly aspiring actress Delysia Lafosse (Amy Adams), and juggles several complicated upper-crust lives in pre-World War II London.
This is a film I thought I would like, but didn’t. It’s an indie-style flick, about two recently-wed urbanite art dealers Madeline and George (Embeth Davidtz and Alessandro Nivola) who travel to the sticks to hang out with George’s family, including his never-graduated from highschool brother Johnny (who thinks George is an asshole) (Ben McKenzie) and his pregnant wife Ashley (Amy Adams).
