Chel asked:
Renee Zellweger and Ewan McGregor star in the film, Miss Potter, set to release late December. Zellweger plays the real life author of “The Tale of Peter Rabbit” Beatrix Potter and McGregor plays her editor, whom she falls in love with. I’m wondering if Hollywood plans to give the real story or come up with a happier ending. For those who don’t know, Beatrix Potter was secretly engaged to her publisher, but he died tragically before the wedding. All the current theatrical trailers make the movie seem like a merry, romantic film and I’m curious what you think. Will Hollywood make up a happy ending or tell the real story and end up disappointing people. I’ll admit, I’m going to be mad if they kill off McGregor. What do you think??

Hollywood will do whatever it takes to make a buck.

Honestly, it can go either way because there are movies out there that don’t give you the happy ending you expect. I just hope that they don’t market it as something it’s not.

Hollywood tell a true story correctly? Not gonna happen!

Probably make the fairly tale happy ending just like in “A Beautiful Mind” (also supposedly based on a true story) where it shows the couple still happily married in the end, when in real life they had divorced many years earlier and he was actually ***.
