I love this movie wholeheartedly! There’s a genre of books that’s made for a certain type of people, the pocket novels/historic Romans or whatever you call them at home. This movie is a must see for those of you who love those books like I do. Never mind the comments here about cheesy stuff, the predictability or the “wannabe bridgerton” sneers. That’s not what this book or movie is about. It’s the simple love story, in historic setting with the standard plot, the standard characters and the predictable but oh so relatable twists. I’d admit reading the book is more fun: you simply don’t read it in under 2 hours. But it’s all you want of this book and therefore it’s all you want to see in this movie, down to every little cheeky detail you’d want to see when dreaming away with these classic women wanting for love.
So there you have it: can’t stand the genre? Stay away and don’t pretend to compare it to bridgerton or downton Abby, it’s a whole other world.
