A DRAMATIC look at the life and times of Beatrix Potter and her rise to become the leading children's author of her days and for future generations.

Renee Zellweger plays the leading role and is convincing as the strong-minded and independent woman who left London for the more idyllic Lake District where she pursued her career as a writer.

But the under-current to her life was her love for Norman Warne: a man of which her parents did not approve and virtually told her to abandon.

Warne is played by Ewan McGregor.
