The review
Start with the bread, not with the book's fame. A man steals it, serves the years, and an inspector hunts him after. The law will not forgive that crime. A woman is driven somewhere I won't describe, and a child is raised in secret. A house can read the novel. It isn't the musical, and it isn't the 1912 film.
I lost my place. It's long, and I was already finished for the day. What stayed was the child, hidden, and a sentence that outlasts the years he served. If you begin, begin knowing the crime is hunger. Don't describe the street. Say what the law refuses.
Journal
Keep Les Misérables in the record.
No house has filed a sentence for this yet.
Live Historic number 69. Yours can differ.
The glance
Piety is the thin one.
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
The Tenant of Wildfell Hall
75 instead of 69
The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is still a novel film, and it scores 75 instead of 69. What you gain is industry: After she goes, she supports herself.
