...account for some of the twitchiness that occasionally mars Renée Zellweger's performance in the title role. Potter, however, is made of willful stuff. She finds a publisher (Ewan McGregor) for her books, falls in love with him, achieves best-sellerdom and, in this telling of her life, status as a largely overlooked feminist icon and an early environmentalist...
