Still have that letter too! This is by far my favorite movie. I can watch it over and over again with no problem. And, it has to have the most quoted lines ever.

I never did read the book to them but they both know the movie by heart. Even to the point of one brother responding to the other that his new girl friend didn't like it. He told him to dump her.

That night, alone in her room, she examined herself pore by pore in her mirror. This was after mirrors.

As she strolled through the family rose gardens watching the sun rise, she felt happier than she had ever been.
Not a part of me could stand improving, how lucky I am to be perfect and rich and sought after and sensitive and young and. The mist was rising around her as Adela began to think. What indeed?
