Review: Penelope

Penelope is a 2006 romantic film directed by Mark Palanky and starred by Christina Ricci and James McAvoy.

Penelope (Christina Ricci) is a high society blue-bood girl locked up in her parents' manor bacause se was born with a family curse and it can only be broken if she marries a high society blue-blood man. All the suitors fall in love with her voice but the minute she reveals herself they get scared and run away.

Max (James McAvoy) is a gambler who is hired by Lemon (Peter Dinklage) who is a journalist obsess with Penelope to take her a picture. The young gambler stars having feelings for the young and misterious heiress, so that, Max decides not to work for Lemon anymore and stop seeing Penelope because he isn't a blue-blood and can't break the curse.

Penelope tired of being confined in her house and seeing how everybody freaks out every time she shows herself, she  decides to break free and face up to the world.

could the curse be broquen someday? will Penelope and Max get back together?

It is a really excellent film which talks about self-acceptance and how we wouldn't let others people opinions keep us from leaving our life the way we want to.

I'd highly recommend you not miss Penelope, it will make you laugh, fall in love and think.
