This evening was spent enjoying the company of family, with popcorn and several good movies. Though we are fast approaching April, it was nice to sit by the warm fire in the living room. After cleaning the dishes from supper we watched the first of two movies. I am reviewing the 
second movie entitled, “The Inheritance.” The movie is centered around a young girl named Edith who was orphaned as a small child. Edith is presently living with the Hamilton family who are extremely well off. Social status was no different in the 1800’s than it is today. This family, the father and mother in particular have not allowed their status or amount of wealth get in the way of their morality and values. When young Edith was left father and motherless, Mr. Hamilton loved her from the minute he saw her. Edith grew up to love horseback riding and actually turned a few heads when she refused to ride “side saddle” at the nudging of Mr. Hamilton. She won the horse race when riding against several indignant men of the day.
The Inheritance is also a love story without all of the unwanted scenes that normally accompany movies of today. It was very clean and wholesome. This movies promotes honesty and humilty for one another. The setting is upon a beautiful country side where they reside in an old and beautiful victorian-like homestead. There are a couple of evil characters but in the end the message is clear decietful behavior doesn’t win in the end. All in all this movie is a super investment and well worth the time viewing.

How did you feel about the modesty issue and profanity which
is stated on the back of the case? We just got this but
haven’t opened it yet. I think maybe we watched a different
version a number of years ago, but I don’t remember which
version it would have been. Any ideas?
Thanks so much…
