Emma Thompson, whose first screenplay won the 1995 Oscar® for
Sense and Sensibility, returns to screenwriting with Nanny McPhee,
a motion picture adaptation of the "Nurse Matilda" books by
Christianna Brand. Thompson, the only person to have won Oscars®
for both acting and writing, also plays the title role in Nanny
McPhee, opposite Colin Firth, Kelly Macdonald and-in her first role
for the big screen in two decades-Angela Lansbury.
In this dark and witty fable, Thompson portrays a person of
unsettling appearance and magical powers who enters the household
of the recently widowed Mr. Brown (Firth) and attempts to tame his
seven exceedingly ill-behaved children. The children, led by the
oldest boy Simon (Love Actually's Thomas Sangster), have managed to
drive away 17 previous nannies and are certain that they will have
no trouble with this one. But as Nanny McPhee takes control, they
begin to notice that their vile behavior now leads swiftly and
magically to rather startling consequences.
Her influence also extends to the family's deeper problems,
including Mr. Brown's sudden and seemingly inexplicable attempts to
find a new wife; an announcement by the domineering Aunt Adelaide
(Angela Lansbury) that she intends to take one of the children
away; and the sad and secret longings of their scullery maid,
Evangeline (Kelly Macdonald). As the children's behavior begins to
change, Nanny McPhee's arresting face and frame appear to change as
well, creating even more questions about this mysterious stranger
whom the children and their father have come to love.
