We figured we'd catch a movie to take our minds off things. S picked this obviously. I chided her about it being a Brit period piece about marriage versus station...which is exactly what it was. Carey was very engaging and the country settings were lovely. There was even a sword flirt scene but instead of a steamy Antonio vs Catherine duel, it was a redcoat cad swinging at defenseless Carey.
Wait...that works? Oh now you tell me...now that I'm married with a kid...

And I go into uncontrollable rages when people call it Away from the Madding Crowd instead of Far from the Madding Crowd.

Thanks, CF!
In the Tudor Period, Fencing Masters were classified in the Vagrancy Laws along with Actors, Gypsys, Vagabonds, Sturdy Rogues, and the owners of performing bears.

But to the matter at hand, is swinging a cutlass at an unarmed lady really a method of courtship? srsly? Why would that even work?
