ENTERTAINMENT: Movie- Mrs. Palfrey at the Claremont (Amazon Prime Video)


Good Morning, Happy Readers!

 I discovered this gem of a movie while scrolling through the new additions to the Amazon Prime Video List. I love Joan Plowright. She is an exceptional actress who brings warmth and intelligence to every character she plays. 

In this movie, Joan is Mrs. Palfrey, who moves into a hotel as a longterm resident in London to start the final phase of her life on her own terms. No living with her daughter. No retirement home. 

The Claremont seemed lovely in the brochure. Plus, it boasted fine dining. She soon learns the Claremont, along with the others who live there, has seen better days.

Mrs. Palfrey develops a friendship with a very unlikely person, who turns out to be a kindred soul. 

I have always believed that family means those who love you unconditionally, whether related by blood or not. 

Watch this touching film if you have access to Amazon Prime Video. It will touch your heart.

Hugs,
Carol
