Review – Lesley Manville is seen extremely coated up with the character of the story, Mrs. Ada Hariss. The story is based on the novel with same title written by Paul Gallico. The story promotes hope which shouldn’t die within a person. No matter if it was impossible for Mrs. Hariss to afford a Christian Dior dress but she has a hope that one day she will have it and work hard towards her dream. The dedication she had toward her work , her dream and the positivity she carried in her aura made the story more alluring. It’s surely a must watch.
