To provide entertainment is an art form and back in the days, competition was also as tough as today. But comes an odd yet brave soul who will live out a dream nobody though can be possible, her name is Florence Foster Jenkins and she is played by the award-winning actress Meryl Streep who will take her singing prowess in a unusual range.Set during the Wolrd War II era in New York City, the war is almost over and people in the Big Apple continues on with the busy city life, one would find a special club established to provide entertainment with classical means. Madam Florence as she is known ventures into singing on live stage to provide entertainment, but her method is really what many would expect.
Also joining Meryl are acclaimed actors Hugh Grant and Simon Helberg who will be he biggest supporters for the dream of many singers. It may not be the tune you will be hoping for, but it provided that push to appreciate the life of the New York socialite.
