Editorial Review:

Description:
When 12 ordinary members of the Women's Institute, a prim and proper local ladies' club, decide they need to find a more compelling way to raise money for a new charity, they turn to their traditional annual calendar and give it a very untraditional twist. Behind the usual baked goods, the apple pressing, and the flower arrangements are the women -- completely nude! Starring 2003 Golden Globe nominee Helen Mirren (Best Actress, CALENDAR GIRLS) and Julie Walters (HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS), CALENDAR GIRLS is a terrifically entertaining comedy. And that's the naked truth.

Amazon.com:
In the sensible yet elegant hands of actresses Helen Mirren and Julie Walters, Calendar Girls walks a fine line between sappiness and snickering and ends up both wonderfully funny and gently touching. When her best friend Annie (Walters, Billy Elliot) loses her husband, Chris (Mirren, Prime Suspect, Gosford Park) cooks up a scheme to memorialize him: They and their friends--all fiftysomething women--will make a nude calendar to raise money for the hospital where he died. The calendar becomes hugely popular, but the success may drive a wedge between the two women's friendship. Based on an actual event, Calendar Girls carefully balances the stories of several women as it follows the calendar's media explosion, becoming a surprisingly moving fable of loss, determination, and the perils of fame. And let's face it--Helen Mirren is one of the wittiest and sexiest women alive, clothes on or not. --Bret Fetzer

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Movie
This is a great movie about women. It definitely lifts your spirit and makes your day. This film celebrates the beauty of a woman. Ladies, if you feel like you are ever old for something, watch this film...

This film is a must see for all - young and old.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Calendar Girls
Sort of a take off on The Full Monty - which of course was hilariously funny! Helen Mirren is amazing - the cast is great - done very tastefully as any British film would - with humor and dry wit that is great! Light hearted - real - good humor with out the violence and horror that seems to have invaded our screens today - always keep these on hand for the times you need a good laugh!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Calendar Girls - excellent
This movie made a statement that just because your body may be growing older, your heart and your spirit are not.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Calendar Girls
I have another movie "Under the Tuscan Sun", which I absolutely love and one of the previews was for "Calendar Girls" so I thought I'd buy it. It isn't as good as "Under the Tuscan Sun" but it is still a really great story and very funny. It is a movie about women taking charge and disregarding society's taboo placed on the subject of nudity of women passed a certain age. These women decide to raise money to buy a new couch for the family room in a local hospital after one woman's husband is diagnosed ... Read More
