      • Trivia
        This movie was based on the book "Mrs. 'Arris Goes to Paris" by Paul Gallico published in 1958. Paul wrote a series of four books about Mrs. 'Arris - "Mrs. 'Arris Goes to Paris", "Mrs. 'Arris Goes to New York", "Mrs. 'Arris Goes to Parliament", and "Mrs. 'Arris Goes to Moscow".
      • Goofs
        When Mrs. Harris first sees the dress in her employer's bedroom, she is told it cost four hundred and fifty guineas. Mrs. Harris later tells Violet that it is worth four hundred and fifty pounds, and when she goes to Paris, that is what she buys it for, but a guinea was worth 21 shillings, and a pound only twenty, so 450 guineas is not the same as 450 quid, and the guinea price would make it 472 pounds, 10 shillings.
      • Quotes

        Mrs. Ada Harris: I'll be right with you in two shakes of a duck's whisker.

      This could stop wars
      This, in my mind, is the nicest film in existence. From start to finish this gently floats you along the storyline, and it ends in a resonding awwww. After watching this film everything is right with the world and dreams do come true if you work for them. The best thing is that there is no Disney label attached.

      Suggested on Rainy days, boyfriend/girlfriend seperation, failed exams, apocalypses etc
