SKINOPSIS

No fears gents, Dame Judi Dench got an Oscar nomination by keeping her clothes on. However the same can't be said for the bevy of beautiful British babes who doff their clothes and pose motionless onstage.
REVIEW
Recently widowed, Laura Henderson (Dench) is terribly bored and in desperate need of a hobby aside from her status in London’s social scene. She decides to buy a run-down theater, renovate it and hire Vivian Van Damm (Hoskins) to manage the entertainment aspect of this outrageous and totally random endeavor. When the first efforts of the duo don’t bring forth enough stimulating or financially impressive results, Mrs. Henderson suggests the idea of having the women appear nude on stage. The theater becomes quite controversial and, as one could imagine, a titillating experience for the men who attend the always artistic and classy performances. Director Frears introduces us to some very lively and quite hilarious characters but none of them are as remarkable and unforgettable as the dynamic diva, Mrs. Henderson. Dench proves, once again, why she is the Dame one can’t help but adore as she delivers each line with perfection and exceptional wit. Her performance saves the day, for the second half of the film is a bit sobering as the theme of war is implemented on an otherwise light and pleasant story.
