Mrs. 'Arris Goes to Paris (1992)
For anyone that ever dreamed

On paper, it reads like rubbish. A TV movie, with fairly low-budget production values, what seems like an A to B plot and the usual suspects like Angela Lansbury, Omar Shariff and Diana Rigg amongst others.
Don't believe it. This IS a fairly low-budget TV film, but the story, the actors and the way it's handled take this WAY above it's premise.
I have never come across anyone who has seen this film who hasn't been affected in some way by it. It'll have you smiling your head off through its bucket-loads of total charm. Arguably better than 90% of Christmas films, if you don't find yourself siding with Mrs 'Arris then I suspect you aren't quite human, or you've already won the lottery.
By God, we need it on DVD. It's utterly brilliant.
