I am surprised by all the good reviews of this film. If you like Jane Austen-type movies, you probably wont like this one. I thought it was a well-done film, but the story was heart-breaking and aggravating with a very selfish main character. It was so painful to see, not beautiful the way everyone else seems to see it. A man takes complete advantage of a girl, promises he'll never leave her and within two days drops her like a hot potato. He never comes back. Meanwhile, she's pregnant, has his child and dies of a broken heart. Not that she wasn't to blame, she shouldn't have been so foolish to fool around with him. I like movies where people like him are the villain, not the hero (Like Willoughby in Sense and Sensibility, or Wickham in Pride and Prejudice were villains) People, stop thinking that selfishness and taking advantage is "romantic!!" Viewer, BEWARE!
