The female lead brought up-to-date


She can hold her own when the going gets tough, but is this realistic and would you care if she wasn’t there?

reply

I think its plausible. Her husband was murdered in front of her thats enough to toughen anybody up. I didnt mind her character but i feel she was more eyecandy than anything else

Was it realistic for a "respectable" woman in the 1800s to walk around with 3/4 of her chest exposed?

I mean really, the opening scene with her in church with her husband she was wearing a low cut dress with the upper half of her boobs exposed...and she continued that theme throughout the whole movie.

Nothing against boobs, I just thought it was gratuitous, out of place, and uncalled for in the context of the movie.

I don't know very much about the fashions at that part of history but I see what you mean.
