The Assistant

1939, London. This is Pettigrew's (Frances McDormand) miserable day, at least at first. As a pastor's daughter, she abides by strict and rigid self-restraint, and also puts these restraints and teachings on the children she brings. Yes, Pettigrew was a governess in London. However, her strict discipline made her parents very dissatisfied, and she was fired three times within a month. This time Ms. Holt from the tutoring center also kicked her out. Dressed in gray and old-fashioned clothes, she was impoverished and quickly picked up the career recommendation letter for Miss Delysia Lafosse (Amy Adams) and went to her door. Delysia is a singing and filming star waiting to shine. In order to fight for opportunities, she deals with three men at the same time, but only one of them is she truly loves. In the next 24 hours, Pettigrew will help Delysia survive various thrilling and comedic crises and understand what true happiness is, and Pettigrew also finds his own love.
