Miss Pettigrew Lives For A Day - movie review

Comic timing everything for McDormand, Adams in funny 'Miss Pettigrew'

By Jeff Bayer | Contributing Film Critic

Disheveled and worn down, Miss Pettigrew (Frances McDormand) goes from bad to worse.

Before the opening credits of "Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day" are finished, she gets fired from her job as a nanny, loses all of her possessions and can't find a bite to eat.

Set in 1939 London, just as World War II is about to break out, Miss Pettigrew must try and make a go of it. What follows is an infectious comedy that becomes a wonderful drama.
