DVD Reviews of Florence Foster Jenkins: A World of Her Own
DVD Review: Amazing. Nothing less than amazing!
Summary: 5 Stars
This respectful and thoughtful treatment of one of music's greatest oddities is not done at all
in the manner one might have imagined.
While the subject hefself is one often lampooned and spoken of chiefly in humor,
Donald Collup's treatment of Ms. Foster Jenkins is respectful, never glib or
condescending. Indeed, one is in a matter of minutes transported almost as if
by magic to the early 20th century and the rarified world of ladies' music societies,
witness the burdgeoning of the commercialization of arts, private clubs and a society
that has long since faded into obscurity. It's a fascinating world rich with social
columns and scandal, clandestine love affairs and makes Jenkins' story come alive as
though she'd only just left us. Yes, you will crack up watching it - but it also
tugs at the heartstrings in a manner I suspect few will be prepared for.
It is a thought profoking, and remarkable film.
