Beatrix potter…… just watched it not seen it before but a must for the romantics in this world. The inimitable Renee Zellwegar played Miss Potter beautifully. I couldn’t help wondering however, as the animals came alive if Beatrix was indeed bi polar or schizophrenic as peter rabbit and jemima puddleduck spoke to her.
She lived at home with her mother and father, she was a daddys girl, that was obvious, but her father just wanted to please everyone and bowed down to his wife’s demands. Beatrix’s mother had slipped into the land of the wealthy and affluence, taking on airs and graces in an effort one can only assume to prove she was indeed a lady. Chastising Beatrix on several occasions for carrying her own tray and doing things considered by her mother as menial.
creaky Miss Wiggin, played by Matyelok Gibbs was Beatrix’s chaperone and although she was very often disapproving of things Beatrix did you couldn’t help getting the feeling she was on her side.
Beatrix fell in love with Norman, a junior brother in the publishing firm where Beatrix published her books. He was set up to fail by 2 older brothers senior to him in the company business. Beatrix’s mother persuaded her father to inflict a forced summer of separation between Norman and Beatrix with a promise that if the couple still loved each other and wanted to marry after that then both her mother and her father would agree. The moments at the train station as Beatrix and her parents were about to leave for the summer house in the lake district were every romantics dream, Beatrix scanned the crowds on the platform looking for Norman to come and say goodbye. She sees someone she thinks is Norman and runs off the train to greet him only to find it wasn’t him, as she turns around to board the train again Norman appears they kiss and she only manages to get back on the train as it is pulling out of the station.
Throughout the summer she receives letters from him, but one day the letters stop, not knowing the story you wonder for a while if her parents haven’t managed to put something in place where the letters stop, indeed Beatrix’s mother is triumphant and hardly able to contain her ‘I knew it was a whim’ attitude. Beatrix receives a letter from Norman’s sister Millie, telling her Norman is very ill, Beatrix only arrives back in London the day after Normans funeral and is devastated. The moment in her room as she tries to rekindle her friends, Peter Rabbit and co, and they all disappear one by one only serves to confirm her heartbreak, everything slipping from her grasp in her grief.
Beatrix buys a working farm in the beautiful Lake district , and this is her saving grace, she becomes close friends with a local solicitor who helps her buy other properties in an attempt to save the area from the property developers, she bids a massive £3,000 for another farm to help preserve the area.
The film ends with the words, ‘There is something delicious about writing the first few words of a story, you can never tell where they might take you, mine took me here’ and as she sat on a hillside in the wonderful part of England that is the lake district the film ended, leaving the romantics amongst us wishing we were also there.
