I have a new movie to add to my favorites list: Miss Potter, the biography of Beatrix Potter, author of the Peter Rabbit books. Roccy lent this movie to me (a long time ago, I'm afraid) and I finally had a chance to watch it. I LOVED it! I love period movies (Little Women is another one of my favorites) as well as anything that has to do with the creative process (Finding Neverland is about the author of Peter Pan, and that's another fantastic movie).

Watching Miss Potter made me (and the kids) want to read her stories, and it made me want to know more about this woman and her life. I wasn't crazy about who they cast for Miss Potter, but other than that, I thought this movie was very well done. I highly recommend it.
Actually, I recommend the others as well:

I LOVE both "Finding Neverland" and "Little Women" so I guess I'll have to try "Miss Potter." I've never even heard of it. . . thanks for the recommendation.
I love Little Women, too, so I need to see this one. I didn't even know about it. I am sooooo behind on movies, though. It just seems like there is so much YUCK out there as far as movies goes, I kind of lose hope sometimes. Thank you for the recommendation.
