    Witty and utterly charming, 2008-09-15
Calendar Girls
br /
br /During a business trip to Washington, D.C., I saw the original Rylstone calendar on which the movie was based. I was intrigued, to say the least so had to see the film when it came out. Later, I bought the DVD (this, like a similar film--The Full Monty--is one you'll want to have in your DVD library).
br /
br /The film is loosely based on a true story, of a North Yorkshire District Women's Institute group who posed for a caalendar to raise money for a hospital waiting room sofa where John, the husband of one of the members had died of leukemia.
br /
br /It is a story of love and compassion, and also of the problems brought on by fame. It is heartwarming, humorous, witty, touching, and utterly charming.
br /
br /There's nudity, but presented in a tasteful way. You'll love all the women in the tiny fictional town of Knapley. Kudos to the magnificent Helen Mirren and Julie Walters, who play Chris and Annie (the characters on whom the film was based).
br /
br /Buy it, rent it, enjoy it!
br /
br /Highly recommended for sheer entertainment value.
