To someone, anyone who has seen this . . .


could you please tell me Dame Eileen Atkins' part? What role does she play? How much screen time does she have (estimate)? Thank you so much!

Hi ,,, I jsut came out of the first screening here in paris and although I love Atkins I didn't see her in the movie ,,,, it was still a very good movie ,,,

reply

What did you make of Kristin Scott-Thomas's performance? :)

reply

I think Eileen Atkins played the role of the housekeeper of Madame Angelier. She is seen in several small scenes, among others: she warns Lucille when her mother-in-law is returning home from visiting her sister.

reply

The housekeeper was played by Clare Holman. Eileen Atkins was removed from the film completely after poor test screenings, so it's strange why she still receives a credit.

Her part was originally to bookend the movie by finding her mother's manuscript it has been cut from the film.
