Should you stream 'Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris' on Netflix?

If your watchlist is in desperate need of a feel-good, comfort watch, then "Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris" is the movie for you. Ada Harris is a character who it's impossible not to root for, and it's very easy to get swept up in her dream (fanciful though it may be). It helps that Lesley Manville inhabits the character so well; if the film didn't have as strong an actor in the lead role, it surely wouldn't be nearly as charming as it is. Story-wise, "Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris" probably isn't going to surprise or shock you, but when it's that easy to warm to the woman at the heart of it all, that

After downsizing to the ad-supported tiers, I’m paying $8.99/month for Netflix and $11.99/month for Disney+. That’s an instant monthly saving of $11 and $4 respectively, a total of $15 a month back in my pocket. While those figures might not sound earth-shattering to some, for many, this is a not-insignificant amount. In an era of squeezed wages and rising inflation, sitting through a couple of ads per show has become a much more palatable prospect. While I was happy to trade my time for money,

I'm saving $180 a year by switching to Disney+ and Netflix with ads, and I don't regret it at all
