Howards End




Two thumbs up for Howards End, a movie about two sisters named the Schlagels. Emma Thompson does a great job portraying the more sensible sister. There is a brother too but the story is mainly about the two sisters.I enjoyed the scenery of London and typical English countryside with vine covered cottages, brick fences, and willow draped rivers. The movie touches on class differences and women's sufferage but the main theme is family loyalty. I recommend you see it.
