With all odds against her, in order for Penelope to break the family curse, she must find true love with “one of her own kind” and realize the most important life lesson, “I like myself the way I am.” Penelope Wilhern, born to wealthy socialites, is afflicted by the Wilhern spell that can only be broken when she finds love. Hidden away in her family’s estate, the lonely girl meets a string of suitors in her parents’ futile attempt to break the curse. Each eligible bachelor is enamored with Penelope and her sizable dowry; until her curse is revealed. Lemon, a mischievous and eager tabloid reporter, wants a photograph of the mysterious Penelope and hires Max to pose as a prospective suitor to get the shot. The handsome down-on-his luck gambler finds himself falling for Penelope, but, not wanting to disappoint her or to expose his surreptitious ways, he decides to disappear. Fed up by his latest betrayal and determined to live life on her own terms, Penelope breaks free from her family and ventures into the world alone. She finds adventure and Annie, her first friend, and becomes the person she was meant to be.
Plot: Forlorn heiress Penelope Wilhern is cursed, and the only way out is to fall in love with someone of suitable stock. But how can she find her soul mate when she’s sequestered inside her family’s estate with only her parents to keep her company. This untraditional fairy tale about a girl who bucks convention to create her own happy ending.

A Beautiful Film!
I saw “Penelope” at the US premiere at CineVegas last week. It has a very sweet message about self-acceptance that we could all use a little more of these days. I loved the hyper- real, brightly colored, Tim Burtonesque look of the film, it helped to accentuate the fairy tale aspect.I also thought all of the performances, especially Christina Ricci and Katherine O’Hara, were excellent. Reese Witherspoon as a leather wearing, gum chewing, scooter riding messenger girl seemed a bit miscast, but she was actually good and had one of the funnier lines of the film.
While there’s nothing laugh out loud funny, this sweet story makes you smile again and again.
I would recommend this film for audiences of all ages because I don’t think you’re ever too old for it’s message and it doesn’t talk down to an adult audience.

Had good potential but didn’t work out
At first I was not too interested in this movie but the rest of my family sat down to watch it on DVD and I had nothing better to do so I ended up watching it. As the movie went on I really started to like it. It was different and interesting and I loved the cast. But the plot line just simply didn’t make sense. Penelope was under a spell that she thought could only be broken by marrying a “blue blood” yet when she had the chance she decided not to because she had accepted who she was and realized that she wasn’t really in love. But then by accepting the curse the curse was broken and she was happy to have a real nose. She doesn’t fall in love with her true love until after she looks “normal”. What kind of message is that? I think that the movie would have made MUCH more sense if she had the made the choice to be with/marry Johnny even though it meant keeping her pig nose instead of marrying a blue blood and getting rid of it. That would’ve shown she was truly happy with how she looked rather than after she accepts the way she looks *poof* the curse is gone. That’s not the way it works in the real world.
