And Lesley Manville will be in a new movie this summer, playing Paul Gallico’s charwoman with big dreams, in MRS. HARRIS GOES TO PARIS. This longtime Gallico fan notes they have changed the title, which (in America) originally was MRS.’ARRIS GOES TO PARIS, as the little char speaks rather like Eliza Doolittle before she met ‘Enry ‘Iggins. The British title was FLOWERS FOR MRS. HARRIS—and there was a try turning it into a musical recently.
Back in the early 1990s, there was a very sweet tv movie with Angela Lansbury and Omar Sharif.
