The review

Becky Sharp will not stay poor. She climbs through a war and a society, and she is charming while she does it. Amelia stays loyal to a man who is not worth it. Thackeray put the judgment in the title. A teen can read it. I wouldn't let the charm speak last.

She uses people. That isn't a scold I add from the doorway. It is what the climb is made of. If we take it up, I want the name of the person spent, not a speech about how alive she seems.

Crime and Punishment

55 instead of 40

Crime and Punishment is still a novel film, and it scores 55 instead of 40. What you gain is piety: A woman who reads the Gospels to him is the other road.

The eight

  1. 4
    Industry

    Becky will not stay poor; the climb through a war and a society is the labor.

  2. 6
    Household

    Amelia stays loyal to a man who is not worth the loyalty.

  3. 3
    Piety

    The title is the judgment; the climber does not stop herself.

  4. 4
    Courage

    Becky risks staying poor, and she spends other people to avoid it.

  5. 4
    Republic

    A society at war is the field, and the people in it get used.

  6. 3
    Temperance

    The charm keeps the climb going, and she does not put it down.

  7. 5
    Truth

    Becky is charming, and the charm is how she uses people.

  8. 3
    Stewardship

    The people she uses are what the fair spends; little is left them.

Ivanhoe

The tournament is fun, and Rebecca is used, then left out of the marriage.

The review

He comes home from the Crusades disinherited, and the tournament is the part I still see when the politics blur. Norman and Saxon is the quarrel under the show. A teen can read it. The quarrel is not kind to the Jewish father and daughter stuck in it.

Rebecca is how that unkindness gets spent. She is set in the middle to be wanted, to give the knights a rescue, and to be refused the marriage the Christian plot keeps. If we read it, I say that while the lances are still pretty. Otherwise the show uses her again and I nod along.

Emma

53 instead of 40

Emma is still a novel film, and it scores 53 instead of 40. What you gain is truth: Almost every pair she invents is false, and a friend is hurt.

The eight

  1. 3
    Industry

    The tournament is the spectacle, not a trade that feeds a house.

  2. 5
    Household

    A Jewish father and daughter are caught in a quarrel that won't keep them.

  3. 4
    Piety

    The Christian quarrel does not let conscience spare Rebecca.

  4. 6
    Courage

    A disinherited knight comes home from the Crusades into the quarrel.

  5. 5
    Republic

    Norman and Saxon politics are the quarrel, and that quarrel is not kind.

  6. 3
    Temperance

    Rebecca is desired, and that wanting is spent as part of the show.

  7. 4
    Truth

    Knights look decent while a Jewish daughter is used and not kept.

  8. 2
    Stewardship

    The marriage the book keeps is not Rebecca's; she is left outside it.
