Madame Bovary

Adult: she buys a life she read about, and the debt is the bill.

The review
Adults only. I mean the debt as much as the rest. Emma marries a dull doctor, spends money, and takes lovers to feel a life she read about. I will not describe the sex. Flaubert was tried for the book. Do not pass it to a teen as a refined kind of sadness. The wanting goes on a long time, and the household is what it uses.
The bills come. The debt is the bill. The books she read are not the life she has. I ended angrier at the spending than at the dull man, because the money will not turn into a mood. What remains is what she owes. Keep children out of the room.
Journal
Keep Madame Bovary in the record.
No house has filed a sentence for this yet.
Live Historic number 44. Yours can differ.
The glance
Piety and Courage and Republic and Temperance and Stewardship are the thin ones.
Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
Heidi
64 instead of 44
Heidi is still a novel film, and it scores 64 instead of 44. What you gain is stewardship: What should be left her is the air and the place her body knows.
