Can you get a life and discover love, all in one day?
Two women are about to find out. In the sophisticated
and heartfelt comedy Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day, Academy
Award winner Frances McDormand plays the film's title
role opposite Academy Award nominee Amy Adams (star of
the blockbuster Enchanted).The cast also includes Golden
Globe Award nominee Lee Pace (of the hit series Pushing
Daisies), Ciarán Hinds (There Will Be Blood), Shirley
Henderson (the Harry Potter films), Mark Strong (Stardust),
and screen newcomer Tom Payne.
In 1939 London, Miss Guinevere Pettigrew (played by Ms.
McDormand) is a middle-aged governess who finds herself
once again unfairly dismissed from her job. Without so
much as severance pay, Miss Pettigrew realizes that she
must - for the first time in two decades - seize the day.
This she does, by intercepting an employment assignment
outside of her comfort level - as "social secretary."
Arriving at a penthouse apartment for the interview, Miss
Pettigrew is catapulted into the glamorous world and dizzying
social whirl of an American actress and singer, Delysia
Lafosse (Ms. Adams). Within minutes, Miss Pettigrew finds
herself swept into a heady high-society milieu - and,
within hours, living it up. Taking the "social secretary"
designation to heart, she tries to help her new friend
Delysia navigate a love life and career, both of which
are complicated by the three men in Delysia's orbit; devoted
pianist Michael (Mr. Pace), intimidating nightclub owner
Nick (Mr. Strong), and impressionable junior impresario
Phil (Mr. Payne). Miss Pettigrew herself is blushingly
drawn to the gallant Joe (Mr. Hinds), a successful designer
who is tenuously engaged to haughty fashion maven Edythe
(Ms. Henderson) - the one person who senses that the new
"social secretary" may be out of her element,
and schemes to undermine her. Over the next 24 hours,
Guinevere and Delysia will empower each other to discover
their romantic destinies.
