5 star romance and look at character…. And.. it is interesting and important. But the Racism, Lost Cause narrative, social impact, even the pacing at points, etc, deserve Worse than no stars on an app. I am glad Margaret got hit by a car.

This is still awful. If it was horror? It would hit. But it’s not. It’s terrifying in the Worst way. And it was Shakespeare’s first work anyway. That Shows.
