Maudie
Maudie | 115mins |
Based on the true story of Maud Lewis, an adored folk-artist of Canada. Left homeless when her house is sold from under her by her brother, Maud takes a job as housekeeper to fish peddler Everett Lewis in exchange for room and board. As the house is only big enough for one bed, Maud and Everett make do by sharing it - which of course gets the town gossips going. The house is also depressing, and Maud starts painting flowers and birds on the walls to brighten the place up. Soon, she has people asking to buy her paintings, and as her success and fame grows, so does her relationship with Everett.
