The Inheritance-

Written by Louisa May Alcott at seventeen years of age, the charming love story that emerged from the pages of that hardcover novel was so precious to me.
Louisa never had her first novel published, so it went on a shelf to collect dust... unknown to the world for many years.
But it was published when two historians found it in a library...

And then I myself found it in my library to enjoy.
The Book is different from the movie but both are to be enjoyed immensely.

Edith Adelon (Cari Shayne) has grown up in the magnificent estate of Evenswood the only home she has ever known. She works as a companion in this great house to Amy Hamilton (Brigitta Dau) who has become her best friend and sister. Seen more like family than servant Edith grows into a beautiful woman who tends to hide her true feelings from others.
Ida Glenshaw (Brigid Walsh Brannagh) arrives to find herself a suitor... yet when said suitor arrives on the scene Edith finds herself falling head over heals for him.
James Percy (Thomas Gibson) finds himself in love with Edith as well, but their difference in social class reminds them daily that they could never be.
Ida’s jealousy and hate for Edith begins to ruin her happy life at Evenswood, and the story takes a sudden turn.
For the better?
For the worse?
You shall have to find out for yourself.

I will say that The Inheritance becomes a sudden classic. And you can not help but fall in love with Edith’s purity and goodness.

This movie is not rated.
But my little 6 year old brother can see it.

A brilliant cast, stunning photography, a magnificent location and beautiful story.
