"Florence Foster Jenkins" - Real Mum story on MoM

13 Comments

I went to the movies today to watch “Florence Foster Jenkins”. A great cast with the amazing Meryl Streep and the gorgeous Hugh Grant. There was even Howard, from “The Big Bang Theory”, if you know the serie.
Here you can see the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HszfdNS0JSc
The movie was so beautiful. I still have the music in my ears. I didn’t know it was a real story. Such a remarkable woman. The movie is so inspiring, sweet, funny and there is also space for some tears. I really enjoyed it. I think you’ll enjoy it too, if you decide to watch it!

I haven’t heard of this movie but am looking at going out with a friend for some child-free time. Maybe we’ll look into this!

Thanks for the review on this movie. I’m a Meryl Streep fan so I’ll enjoy seeing this one. I’ve watched the trailer & I’m going to suggest this for our next girl’s day out with friends. Thanks.

The French version of the same film is a much sadder rendition. She was apparently taken advantage of financially and in the end inly her husband was there for her. Hollywood provides the more “inspiring” and “humorous” version.

  Oh! So do you think that the French version is more realistic?

    Would be interesting to watch both versions.

From what I’ve heard, I’m not sure “remarkable” is the word for Florence.

  Well, in her own way I think she was! She enjoyed singing very much. What a pity for the spectators’ ears that she wasn’t that good!

This woman reminds me of me! I love to sing in the shower, I just don’t presume to be good enough to go professional. Lord help you all if I ever did
