A full-color illustrated guide to the background and making of the motion picture on Beatrix Potter?s life, starring Ren?e Zellweger as Beatrix and Ewan McGregor as the man she loved. The book takes the reader behind the scenes to give a real flavor of the film set and includes sections of the script, the costumes, production design, all the main actors, the experiences of the director, producer and scriptwriter, and the views of Ren?e Zellweger herself on being Beatrix and what the connections are between the real Miss Potter and the woman who is playing her.
I have always loved Beatrix Potter's children's tales, and the movie version of her life starring Renee Zellweger, "Miss Potter" was a true classic...moving in its character exploration, beautiful in its execution and depiction of the beauty of the Lake District, and truly inspiring. If you loved the movie or are simply a fan of all things Potter [Beatrix, not the wizard]...you'll love & treasure this guide to the movie. It is lushly illustrated with full-color pictures, and takes readers behind the scenes of the movie, with insights by the director, producer, scriptwriter, and Zellweger herself. I also plan to get 'Beatrix Potter: A Journal",and "At Home with Beatrix Potter: The Creator of Peter Rabbit" to add to my collection.
Adults love her too!

Somehow growing up I missed all the Beatrix Potter stories. I find them delightful now and am going to share them with my grandchildren. This book about the making of the movie makes me really want to see the movie. I enjoyed it thoroughly. I highly reccomend it.
