  1. Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day

    jan.stuart@newsday.com
    In the ramshackle romantic something-or-other, "Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day," Frances McDormand plays an English secretary with a talent for unemployment. As her name might suggest, Guinevere Pettigrew is as prim and old-fashioned as a doily, even...

  2. Movie Review: 'Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day'

    A bright, frothy slice of comic delight in the old-school style, "Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day" proves that they can make them like they used to, if only they try. A carefully calibrated whirligig spinning off sparks of hilarity, the film is an affectionate homage to 1930s top-hat sophistication and the frivolous glamor of classic screwball comedy.

  3. 'Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day' (starring Frances McDormand and Amy Adams)

    Tribune movie critic
    For the first 20 minutes, "Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day" looks pretty grisly. Frances McDormand and Amy Adams--talk about four big saucer eyes!--push and mug and generally act like they're in a second-rate production of a 1930s English farce, and the...

  4. Amy Adams, Frances McDormand stir up fun in 'Miss Pettigrew'

    <b>(B+)</b> In Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day, making whoopee is divine but sisterhood is powerful. This screwball frolic set in 1939 London stars Amy Adams as would-be West End headliner Delysia Lafosse and Frances McDormand as Miss Pettigrew, the failed governess who winds up as her social secretary.

  6. 'Marie Antoinette'

    Sofia Coppola's &quot;Marie Antoinette" opens with a shot of the last queen of France reclining on a chaise while a maid tends to her feet, surrounded by a parapet of pastries. On the soundtrack, the 1980s post-punk band Gang of Four belts out its class-baiting, anti-consumerist anthem, "Natural's Not in It." ("The problem of leisure / what to do for pleasure," it goes.) A confection herself, Marie Antoinette (Kirsten Dunst) selects a pastel-colored macaroon from a tray and takes a nibble. The whole time she's gazing saucily at the camera as if to ask if we'd like to make something of it. Maybe we would.

  7. 'Yes'

    Ever idiosyncratic and daring British filmmaker Sally Potter with &quot;Yes" tells a searing &#8212; the only word for it &#8212; love story that lays bare the pain and rage of the conflicts between the Middle East and the West in the wake of 9/11 and the Iraq War, with its demonization of the Arab world on the one side and escalating hatred of America on the other.

  8. Movie review: 'Yes'

    Tribune staff reporter
    1½ stars (out of four) Writer/director Sally Potter's new film is spoken entirely in iambic pentameter—and that's not even its most exasperating feature. "Yes" is supposed to be a post-Sept. 11 meditation on power, religion, politics and ethnicity,...
