These days it has become a rarity to find a good movie not aided by special effects, blood or sex. It was a real pleasure to watch this small, honest and humble film, quietly following the tradition of those movies we had almost forgotten. I bet the glorious Angela Lansbury should have enjoyed acting as much as we enjoyed watching it. Well, my mother commented shortly on this movie: just like Cinderella... I cannot argue with that.
What a great movie!!! Mrs. 'arris Goes to Paris is a perfect rainy afternoon movie, instant sunshine. It tell the story of Mrs. 'arris who wants a dress and goes to Paris to get it but has some problems trying to get it. As her problems get solved she touches the lives of the people who help her get what she wants most of all a dress. A wonderful movie!!!! A+
Luckily I have this delightful movie on VHS. It is one of the truly great movies I've ever seen. Actress Angela Lansbury (always a favorite of mine) shines as Mrs. 'Arris in this film. Likewise, Omar Sharif (still a heart-throb) plays a very convincing and lovable Marquis Hippolite. This movie flows smoothly and although the outcome is somewhat what one would expect, it is a lovely escape from reality film that I consider a classic. All the characters, from the lovely Natasha, the somewhat shy, but honorable Andre, the tough but fair Mme. Colbert, portrayed by Diana Riggs and even the despicable Mr Armont, all expertly portrayed and the casting for this film is strong. I urge everyone, young and old alike, to take in this lovely family film. You won't be sorry.
For the many older reviews that lamented that this movie is not on DVD... it is now! I just watched it from a DVD my wife purchased.
My wife is a huge Angela Lansbury fan from before we ever met, and she has introduced me to this wonderful, charming and versatile actress.
Mrs. 'arris is a monetarily poor widow from London who still knows how to dream big, and she is rich in what matters, her spirit. Her positive attitude, graciousness and kindness will have you cheering her on throughout the movie. She touches the lives of many on her quest to own a slice of what - to her - is another world entirely.
A simple movie that tells a more important message than many blockbuster movies ever have, that it truly is not money but moral character and true love of those around us that has any hope of making the world a better place.
Mrs. 'arris improves the lives of those around her with her selfless service and genuine concern far more than wealth ever could. This movie is a clash of the worlds of rich and poor, famous and unknown, beautiful and common. And a strong reminder that in the end, we are all truly equals in the ways that really matter.
Despite being a low budget movie, the acting is very good and the actors bring this world alive for us.
A refreshing family movie that everyone should see, especially those that likely never will.

The title of this movie makes it sound like some kind of child's movie where some little old woman has a series of events in a strange town. Well, it is all true, but I don't know if children would find this story as touching as it is.
Ada Harris wants to buy a Dior dress and "scrimps and saves and slaves" for three years to get it. But upon arrival in Paris to buy a dress from "Dior's dress Shop", she begins to encounter all sorts of mishaps, including the Dior director who refuses to let her have a dress because she is common.
To get these out of the way, there are many parts of this film that are unbelievable. For instance, it supposedly takes place in 1953 but there are many scenes in the film where it seems like modern times. It is also highly bloody unlikely that that many things could happen to the same woman and her naivete, while being likely, is overcome way too easily in the film, but that's HOLLYWOOD!
But every little petty detail in this film can be easily overlooked by the delightful presence of Angela Lansbury! She is just absolutely terrific in a role that, while supposed to be lightly entertaining and kind of frivolous, she makes touch your heart. She is so wonderful and makes you feel so sorry for this old lady!
And then she is backed by a wonderful supporting cast, most wonderfully, Diana Rigg, as the show director at Dior, as well as the characters of Natasha, Andre, and, of course, Omar Sharif as the Marquis who befriends Mrs. 'Arris.
Fan of Lansbury or not, you cannot go wrong with this movie and you will love it!

Wusstest du schon
- WissenswertesThis movie is based on the book "Mrs. 'Arris Goes to Paris" by Paul Gallico published in 1958. Paul wrote a series of four books about Mrs. 'Arris - "Mrs. 'Arris Goes to Paris", "Mrs. 'Arris Goes to New York", "Mrs. 'Arris Goes to Parliament", and "Mrs. 'Arris Goes to Moscow".
- PatzerWhen Mrs. Harris first sees the dress in her employer's bedroom, she is told it cost four hundred and fifty guineas. Mrs. Harris later tells Violet that it is worth four hundred and fifty pounds, and when she goes to Paris, that is what she buys it for, but a guinea was worth 21 shillings, and a pound only twenty, so 450 guineas is not the same as 450 quid, and the guinea price would make it 472 pounds, 10 shillings.
