The film is based around a couple who have to attend a marriage course with their local vicar before he allows them to get married. It is quite funny in places and quite outrageous in others, but if you have been on one of these courses it will bring back a few memories, and yes I had to go on one and still married twenty on years later.

A marriage proposal to a grown Susan is really just a plot to take over Narnia, and the only people who can stop it are a run away slave and a talking horse. A fun adventure that has grown on me the more times I've read it.

Honestlys not sure how I feel about this one. There were glaring elements I hated (the narrating attitude about women and race especially), but things that I think are worth looking at like child “marriage” in the US and calling a girl who’d been raped repeatedly as a pre teen a “whore.” It’s a solid and deserved slap in the face for anyone inclined to idealize the period.

I enjoyed Marriage Story, for as much as one can enjoy that type of situation. It was frustrating and heartbreaking, and had some funny spots thrown in. It was a raw story of a family going through a divorce. (Granted, it was a family that had access to money for bulldog legal teams, so it was both, "easy," and ugly.) Adam Driver was great in his role as Charlie.

"A work I believe Bergman made for television, so it is perhaps not so well known. It goes very far into the riddle of marriage, the breakdown, pain, and passion. I’ve seen it three times already, and I want to watch it again with friends (most of us with one divorce under our belts!). The performances are stunning and the story surprises, touches, and absorbs me each time I see it."

Not my normal genre I quite enjoyed this adventure of this completely sheltered girl who entered into a marriage that was not at all what she expected. The journey that I went on in this intrigued me and had me wondering what was going to happen next.
Sometimes I wanted to shake the main character and I feared for what was going to happen and routed for her all the way.
