  Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day (2008)

description written by member Zara:

A sophisticated and heartfelt comedy. In the 1939-set romantic tale, Miss Guinevere Pettigrew (Academy Award winner Frances McDormand), a middle-aged London governess, finds herself unfairly dismissed from her job. An attempt to gain new employment catapults her into the glamorous world and dizzying social whirl of an American actress and singer, Delysia Lafosse (Academy Award nominee Amy Adams).

Lee Pace is also yummy in this film (those who miss him from PUSHING DAISIES can get their fix...
