I was so looking forward to this DVD... I had no idea that this was shipping from the UK. When I tried to put it in my DVD player it gave me an error message saying “Playback prohibited by area limitations” ... it could not be played in this region of the world?. If you are shipping to the US you have to know that this would not work? I feel like I was taken.

Lansbury returns to her English roots, playing at charlady who has saved for a Parisienne designer dress. She puts up with dlass snobbery but in the end... no spoilers!

5.0 out of 5 stars on a park bench, Lansbury sits down by herself and cries; you will too

I'm so glad somebody left a review telling me that what was previously only available on VHS was now on DVD - a dinosaur technology replaced by neanderthal tech - yay! no more firing up the VCR and being forced to watch in the TV room. this really shouldn't work because of the iffily approximated accents of the supporting players. sentimental in it's conception. predictable every single second. but when you super load a show with great older actors who've acted their entire lives, it can't not work. when you actually LOVE one of the actors and ridiculously feel like you KNOW HER, you're just floating on this big cloud of sheer escapist pleasure. But really, Morley, Rigg, Shariff, and Lansbury don't have to be embarrassed by their work here. If Die Hard or the Rambo movies are your thing - you should pass on this.

Was happy to receive this earlier version of Mrs ‘arris Goes to Paris with Angela Lansbury to compare to the current version with Lesley Manville.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mrs 'Arris goes to Paris
Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2010

In a day when so many movies focus violence or end of the world themes, it's quite refreshing to find a movie that evokes a different story (OK, yes it is an older movie but that is beside the point). The movie Mrs. 'Arris goes to Paris is a enchanting movie with a wonderful cast that delivers a fairy tale type story. If you root for the underdog, love a good old fashioned movie with a love story attached and adore the fashion industry and Paris, this movie is for you.

As a side note, why it has not been released on DVD for region 1 (USA) is beyond me! With the mounds of worthless movies being released on DVD every day, why not release one that people truly want? That said, if you can get a VHS version do so, the story is worth it.

I fell in love with this video when I was a child. Now my 8 year old daughter loves it too, and we BOTH want Dior dresses. ;) I love that so many good things are in the video - about treating people kindly, about mending relationships, about not judging people by their exterior. It's such a simple, but sweet story. Love it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Charming version. Can see why its been remade recently.
Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2022

We are definitely fans of Angela Lansbury so wanted to have the original to the more recently remade movie of this story.

While it would be easy to rate this story and presentation lower (3 stars), what current audiences are missing is the subtle but meaningful undertones of what this story is about - a person working for what her heart desires. Hearing her saying that she worked and saved for THREE YEARS in order to buy a Dior dress has to be a foreign concept to most of today's audience. Contrast that with the newer movie where the main character didn't go through as much effort (probably a few months) and was 'aided' by friends (bookie placed bet) and fate (government back pay).

The newer version has an enriched but more 'social' oriented story - lots of friends, added romance(s) and 'redemption' of loss from her good will to an undeserving person. However we have and will enjoy the original version for its sincere and genuine heart.

What a charming movie! If you're looking for a wonderful movie where no one blows up buildings, this is the one. LOL.... It is so great as Angela Landsbury's character is so charming and in need of a dress... A designer's dress. She has never owned anything so beautiful in her life and is determined to own one before she dies. She sees two beautiful dresses in the lady's house she works for, and admired the threads and amazing craftsmanship of such fine material...... Get this movie too see if Mrs. Arris gets her beautiful dress, that she travels all the way to Paris for.

Gostei muito do filme, atores e realização. Conhecia a história desde adolescência pois li uma condensação do Readers Digest chamada Milagre em Paris. Tenho também pelo menos mais uma história com Mrs. Harris. Muito bonito

Reçu avec 2 mois de retard...j'apprécie doublement cette charmante version ORIGINALE tournée en 1992. Scénario,acteurs,costumes : tous "cousus de fil blanc"...Diorissimo.
Vendeur ( RAREWAVES) au top de l'élégance qui m'a même remboursé puisque le DVD semblait perdu par la poste.
90 minutes de joie et d'émotion.
PAUL GALLICO aurait sûrement aimé ce film !
