This show can easily spiral me into being quite upset. Even if it uplifts you afterwards and gives you the feeling of walking hand in hand through dark till dawn.
How hard it is to fit when you have no idea how.
Well, the second episode continues where the first left off and that is Anne being sent back to the orphanage or whatever you might call that establishment. And I must say, it takes guts and resourcefulness to do what she did. And even if she returned, she was still shunned by the local gentry let's call those snobs. I mean kids can be brutal, but the stigma of orphans is something. No one of those who express their utmost distaste have feelings of compassion whatsoever. They don't care if, for example, it's an orphan of someone worthy of respect or is it something unfortunate. Sympathy just walked out the door, end of story.
While the third episode shows Anne going to the local school for the first time.
And I mean... first of all they've seen the flirting between the teacher and the student, it won't be blamed on the man, it's a period drama and woman's reputation was as fragile as glass. Of course no one will go to the teacher to support the claim of inappropriate behavior (though you could just sack him and beat him up), but Anne for spreading what she saw, oh she'll take it all for it.
And isn't Matthew the sweetest and most awkward? Because I would feel angry too that a young girl has no idea about things she talks about, but she witnessed those things anyway. She has no boundries on what to share and what not. Who would teach her that when she was used as labor?
She might be intelligent and read a lot, but she can still be ignorant.
Around the area maybe Cuthberts are the only decently sympathetic people. Who do not scrape the ceilings with their raised snobish noses.
This is the result when you don't know the books, you sit and think - when will this get better, this is so...
