The next film in the Cinema Series at the 1891 Fredonia Opera House Performing Arts Center is the comedy “Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris,” starring Lesley Manville and Isabell Huppert. It will be screened Saturday, Sept. 3, and Tuesday, Sept. 6 , at 7:30 p.m.

“Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris” is the story of a widowed cleaning lady in 1950s London who falls madly in love with a couture Dior dress, and decides that she must have one of her own. After she works, starves and gambles to raise the funds to pursue her dream, she embarks on an adventure to Paris which will change not only her own outlook, but the very future of the House of Dior.

Peter Travers, on ABC News, calls the film “a sweet little surprise that transports you to a place of pure movie enchantment.” Tomris Laffly, on RogerEbert.com, calls it “a treat as pretty and heartwarming as you can imagine.” Randy Myers, in the San Jose Mercury News, says the film “gives us an everyday superhero to root for.” Leonard Maltin, on leonardmaltin.com, says “Manville is a marvel, and this film is a lovely vehicle for her – the perfect embodiment of Ada Harris.” Rated PG for suggestive material, smoking, and language, “Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris” runs one hour, 55 minutes.
