Based on a true story, Nigel Cole's CALENDAR GIRLS has a mix of comedy and heart-tugging emotion that compares with the comedies FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL and THE FULL MONTY. Annie (Julie Walters) and Chris (Helen Mirren), of bucolic Yorkshire, belong to the Women's Institute (WI), which preserves traditional homemaking practices. While they're just as dedicated as the other ladies in the group, Annie and Chris are adventurous personalities, and they poke fun at the WI's tedious lectures on broccoli and fabrics. In an effort to raise money for the local hospital while also spicing things up at the WI, the ladies decide to put a new spin on the WI calendar, which usually depicts landscapes or churches. The women will pose nude for the calendar while performing traditional activities like baking and gardening. It's no surprise that the finished calendar is a wild success, bringing the ladies instant notoriety and adoration. ... Stellar talent carries the story, especially from glorious Mirren, who portrays yet another daring female character, as she did in past films like THE COOK, THE THIEF, HIS WIFE, AND HER LOVER. Staying true to the real-life story, the film closely matches the original calendar photos, and provides a funny, touching, uplifting tale.

Top Class
The film is inspirational and at times very funny. This is class and a real true Brit Flick.
Calendar Girls
"...Without doubt the best British movie of the year..."
In 1999, 11 women from a Women's Institute branch in the north of England bucked the quaint cake-baking and flower-arranging image of the WI when they posed naked for a charity calendar. That was novel enough. But the fact that they were raising money for the hospital where one of their husbands had died of leukaemia - and that the naked ladies were aged between 50 and 70 - made them internationally known.
Calendar Girls, which is based on their story, is one of those films that Britain does so well: bittersweet without being overly sentimental, and with lashings of good honest humour. The names have been changed, the experiences and characteristics of the real...
