Second clip from "Florence Foster Jenkins"

Pathé UK has released another clip from Florence Foster Jenkins: 



Here we get to see our first extended clip of Simon Helberg, portraying Cosmé McMoon, the pianist hired by St. Clair Bayfield (Hugh Grant) to accompany Jenkins.  Both gentlemen are getting excellent ink thus far, and the film itself is holding strong at 89% on Rotten Tomatoes, with 19 reviews in.  The film opens wide in the UK in two days.

  1. I am loving the sensational reviews Meryl is getting for this, I wasn't anticipating such raves! Glad the film has met with a warm response and hoping for big returns.

    Did you read that Jessica Lange and Susan Sarandon have been cast in "Feud"? The project about Joan Crawford and Bette Davis. Sob! Another one bites the dust for the dream Meryl filmography..

    Also, I see Lange picked up a Tony nomination for Long Day's Journey, just fueling my hunger for a Streep Broadway return. She lives like 10 minutes from there as well!

    1. I know this film is going to end up with such a great critics' rating! And I totally saw that Lange/Sarandon are going Feud, based on Best Actress. Might have been a neat project for Meryl, especially since she's said recently that she would do a TV show, but Ryan Murphy has had Lange and Sarandon attached for a while. It will be fun to see. I'm still holding out hope for The Good House!

    3. I will by the end of this weekend, unfortunately I've had some work commitment which have kept me away this evening! So looking forward to it!

  2. Given a choice, I'd rather Meryl tackle a stage rather than TV performance. She started her career on stage and wouldn't be it great to come full circle by bookending it on stage (of course throw in a few movies here and there)?
