Day 65

Yesterday Clare got two versions of Jane Eyre on DVD. The Orson Welles one came from Amazon, and the 2006 version came from the library. So she watched both in sequence… interesting to compare and contrast. She was taking it easy yesterday because the next few days are going to be very busy with her cousin’s wedding and the dress she is trying to make, etc.

The boys and I played our Monopoly marathon, meanwhile.

Other movies they have watched recently have been:

Suspicion

The Secret Agent
Arsenic and Old Lace

So except for the new Jane Eyre, they have been on a 40’s kick. Also, Clare has been buying several 40’s and 50’s vintage patterns and sewing up a few of them. And requesting swing videos from the library — but I don’t think she watched very many of them. The pictures on the front are too silly.
