#Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day

[rambleonwithrosie]

How is it that sometimes Lee Pace can look like the absolute definition of a generic white boy like you've seen guys in the supermarket that look like him and then other times he looks like the magical offspring of the fey and giants and the last mortal with a trace of faery blood... Someone explain this. Because I'm talking about Lee here not even the difference he can evoke in roles like between Ned the Piemaker and Thranduil the Elvenking I'm talking pictures of Lee that hit so dramatically differently that they give you whiplash

MISS PETTIGREW LIVES FOR A DAY (2008) With the lingerie that I'm about to pick up, it's no contest, honey: "Delysia Lafosse tops the bill!" It is to be a West End smash, Guinevere, and it's going to make me a star. First stop, West End. Next stop, Hollywood!

One Dress a Day Challenge

July: Blue Redux (+ Green Redux)

Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day / Amy Adams as Delysia Lafosse

I haven't had a chance to watch this movie (yet), but I stumbled across this costume and loved it! It's elegant and yet quirky, especially the heart-shaped hat. I like the little touches of red as well, at the belt and on the hat ribbon.

Directly after the plane scene, at the party, Edythe mentions that the planes are "magnificent." This puts her in direct contrast with Joe and Guinevere, who are both disturbed and saddened. Edythe, until this moment, has been presented as mature: she has her business, she's much more sure of her course than Delysia, and she's always shown wearing sober, dignified (though very stylish) clothing that puts her more in Guinevere's neighborhood than Delysia's. She's obviously much more comfortable than Guinevere in the fashionable world, and, so far, she's been right almost every time she gives a judgement about it.

But now she's suddenly one of the younger set, who "don't remember the last one." Unlike Guinevere, she doesn't realize all that the planes imply. And this is so interesting, because we now see that Guinevere, for all her naivete, is much more aware of what's happening than Edythe.

Cynicism is not maturity, and this little line marks the point in the film where we begin to see that.

miss pettigrew lives for a day movie: stacked cast, simply excellent. but miss pettigrew lives for a day book gave delysia more savvy and wisdom, her relationship with miss pettigrew had more heft, edythe wasn’t the bad guy blackmailer (why does society keep pitting two bad bitches against each other), indeed the appeal of the story is the LOW stakes threat of miss pettigrew’s true purpose being revealed, and ultimately we miss out on the indulgent amount of admiration that miss pettigrew accumulates, soft pink cotton candy-like, from doing good for characters like edythe  

#miss pettigrew's inner thrill and outward stoicness truly made the case for the book as a form #miss pettigrew lives for a day

MISS PETTIGREW LIVES FOR A DAY (2008) What do you think of this? Private boat on the Thames, last of the season's strawberries, Dom Perignon champagne. Everything. Strawberries. How do you think a pianist without two shillings to rub together feels proposing to the most beautiful woman in the world? I had a bit of a brainwave as we floated past the Tower of London. Decided the ring I had wasn't good enough for her. Well, when a fellow needs a diamond, what better place to get one than the Tower of London?

When the party guests all excitedly run outside to look at the fighter planes flying over and when Guinevere says to Joe, quietly and simply, "they don't remember the last one" with such weariness and weight. Like someone who's survived one world war, a whole great depression and lost everything only to see the signs that it's all about to happen again-

she doesn't have to specify which "one". Joe knows exactly what she's talking about and knows exactly what she's feeling from those 6 little words. It's the haunting shorthand of two strangers who have both lived the same generation-defining, life-altering traumatic experience.
