What a wonderful story of love and joy of a life well lived through music and song!
Such a great movie, filled with many emotions.
It’s a film that dares you to give it a bad review, simply so it can turn around and call you a bully who picks on the people who try. It invites you to giggle at Florence’s horrible singing and then promptly scolds you for laughing, creating a contradiction that goes unreconciled.
Florence Foster Jenkins is too much old-fashioned fun to saddle with ideas. Just sit back and let Meryl screech.
For the incomparable Streep, it’s yet another performance in high C.
