The tale of Beatrix Potter , creator of Jemima Puddle-Duck and Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle, makes a charming movie . Renee Zellweger is brown-haired, frumpy, sensible and British-accented in her characterization.
Beatrix is spunky and determined to face life on her own terms in spite of pretentious, upwardly mobile Victorian parents who are hardly aware of her growing fame. Nothing much happens in the life of young Beatrix.
