I liked the first half of the movie up until the Dad dies. It was rich with Scottish tradition. The clothing, songs, foods, family life on a small farm, religion, government, & the country side were all depicted pefectly. I love period dramas so this was right up my alley. The movies tone fell flat & changed after the Dad dies. Life went from barbarically hard to a glowing fairytale romance. Then her sugar sweet hubby turns sour & abusive overnight? Come on. I give this a high grade of A+ for the first part. Then from day her father dies to the end it falls apart. See if you agree.
