Ahh how lovely to see a comment from you on such an "old" reaction. ๐Ÿ˜ Glad you enjoyed it!

Four months later, having finally imported a Blu-ray (the US release is out of print) and watched it, great movie. I know some people find it blasphemous to suggest this, but I feel like there's room for a contemporary remake to say something about our culture today (and perhaps come up with something better for Martha -- the trick is how to thread the needle so that there can be closure without essentially hand-waving away everything the characters were put through to get there). One thing that I see wasn't mentioned here: the little kleptomaniac Rosalie, whose thievery gives Mary the fodder to force Rosalie to lie for her, was played by Veronica Cartwright, who would grow up to play Lambert in Alien.

I hope you enjoy it!

Huh. I don't believe that I've seen this one. It'll be fun to see it for the first time with ya. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

I saw that when I looked up the movie after recording the reaction and review. That's even more awesome, tbh.

Fun fact, the original play came out in the 1930s and was based on an actual event in Edinburgh in 1810.
