Florence Foster Jenkins
In the 1940s, New York socialite Florence Foster Jenkins (Meryl Streep), who owns a music club and lives for music, aspires to become an opera singer, despite having a terrible singing voice. Her husband supports her venture and the true story of Florence becomes a historic event in history.

It would be so easy to make Florence the butt of the joke, the victim of an elaborate prank perpetrated by a slice of New York society feeding her delusions, but her story borders on tragedy...

[Frears] elicits a remarkably tender and mature performance from Hugh Grant as St. Clair Bayfield, the two-bit Shakespearean actor who became Jenkins's longtime companion and musical enabler.

Streep is right there, solidly invested in the folly of Florence's dreams. When she declares that "music has been, and is, my life," you believe her.

A family entertainment film, with good moral and a performance from Meryl Streep that could give her an Oscar nomination. [Full review in Spanish]

Even though there's no real story to speak of, I enjoyed Florence Foster Jenkins because it has gorgeous period costumes and wonderful performances.

Florence Foster Jenkins is the latest Meryl Streep summer comedy, and it's a pleasant, and at times touching little gem based on a true story.

Streep, of course, fills her character with emotion, humanity and need, but director Stephen Frears and writer Nicholas Martin haven't decided whether their movie is slapstick or tragedy.

You will never get bored with this simple,digestible and very entertaining biopic. [Full review in Spanish]

A comic lark that packs a satisfying emotional wallop and continues the balls-to-the-wall career victory lap Meryl Streep has been on since turning 60 years old seven years ago ...

Enjoyable summer entertainment for grown-ups and anyone else seeking refuge from superheroes.

That's where the film truly succeeds: Frears doesn't treat Florence like a joke, and neither does Streep.

A joyous production which emotional side is reinforced by Meryl Streep's performance. [Full review in Spanish]
