Fantastic, classic British acting. Story didn't grab me in the first couple of minutes but I'm glad I persevered. Great part for Flora.

That poor man.... and what a horrible, evil wife.

If you don’t want any preconceived notions STOP READING NOW: As a woman this subject makes me especially angry bc I know there are women who do such things & they cause so much harm to the children by using them as pawns, to get their own way, to make themselves out to be victims or merely just out of plain ole spite! 🤬 Now I’ll preface the rest by saying, some may find the following to be crass, so be warned..Do not entirely trust nor underestimate any creature that can bleed continuously for several days, out of every month, over the course of many decades & not only survive, yet it does thrive! 😉😊

IDK, that last line seems like "don't trust or underestimate any creature that has a natural biological process."
