It would be worth seeing for the interior decor alone.
I also love the work of the costume department. They certainly know how to help tell the story. I love the part where Lee was told to fasten her hair back or stop fiddling with it, and she turned up in a beaded snood.
This film also very funny in many places. My favourite recurring joke involves peas.
I am totally impressed by the way E Edward never tells Lee he loves her, yet we know he does. The nearest he gets to saying those three little words is "Des Moines, Iowa"! I love the whole sequence from him carrying her upstairs, and washing her, and seeing her scars, to the bit where he utters these words, to the part with the tree and the black wedding dress.
(I did remember to click the button about including spoilers, didn't I?)
My favourite accessory was the humane mousetrap.
The incidental music was great, and the soundtrack well-chosen. I am no longer able to listen to "I'm Your Man" by Leonard Cohen without grinning.
The only part where I felt uncomfortable was in the moment at the end when Lee has waved goodbye to Edward. For a split second, she looks as if she is going to miss him terribly whilst he is away at work. However, she is a resourceful young lady and will doubtless find a way to combine her passion for her new husband with his need to earn a living.
I love the way IMDb expects me to press "submit" to present them with the review. It is because of women like Lee that I realise that a person can submit without losing the essence of who they are.
