Title: The Inheritance, DVD
Review: I gave it a 5 star because it was a nice change from the movies offered today. It is rare to find a family movie that depicts life where honesty, humility and self-censure is shown in such desirable way. When Louisa wrote this book, it was standard fare in society, but today's children are not raised this way. I am glad that the movie didn't try to place this movie in the setting and societal norms of the 21st century instead of the author's.It was a sweet romance, which I think it was played with tenderness and sensitivity. The characters were portrayed as I think Louisa would have cast them. My only complaint was that the story could've been developed a little more. This is one of my favorites and I will play it over and again with my granddaughter, I am sure.
