MISS POTTER tells the story of how writer and illustrator Beatrix Potter managed to achieve independence and artistic success at the turn of the 20th Century. The film follows her first attempts to be published and her relationship with Norman Warne (son of her publisher Frederick Warne).
Set during the time when Beatrix wrote and published her most famous tale about the beloved character Peter Rabbit, this is the story of one remarkable woman’s journey to love and fulfilment.
Miss Potter was filmed on location in London and in the Lake District where Beatrix lived in later life and reveals how the imaginary world of her stories was inspired by her real life and the people and places she knew.
Directed by Chris Noonan (Babe) and starring Academy Award® winner Renée Zellweger (Bridget Jones’s Diary, Cold Mountain) and Ewan McGregor (Star Wars, Moulin Rouge!).
The story of Miss Potter is undoubtedly the most enchanting tale of all.
In cinemas everywhere from 5th January 2007.
