My Old Lady stars Kevin Kline, Maggie Smith and Kristen Scott Thomas. Kevin Kline inherits a Paris apartment from his estranged father. When he goes to France to claim it, he finds he cannot sell it until the current inhabitant – Maggie Smith – dies.
Kristen Scott Thomas plays Maggie Smith’s daughter.
That two fabulous women like Maggie Smith and Kristen Scott Thomas are identified as “old” in the film is a sad commentary on life. I suggest naming the film, “My Beautiful Lady.” But whatever you call it, I want to see it.
My Old Lady will be released in the U.S. in September. It was produced by BBC Films. Take a look at the preview.
The film is based on a play written by the screenwriter and director Israel Horovitz.
