The Secret Life of Mrs. Beeton (2006) short review

Kendra April 30, 2006

2006 The Secret Life of Mrs. Beeton

A fictionalized account of the life of Mrs. Beeton, who was something of the Martha Stewart of her generation (she published a guide to cooking and household management that was hugely popular). A little sweet and a little sad, not hugely memorable but not offensive. The costuming (1850s) was nice but nothing made me gasp.
