So I guess they showed H.E. at Cannes again this year.
"Ivory says, “we didn’t think ‘Howards End’ was all that special while we were making it. Ruth was there for the final editing, as she always was with our films, and walking back to our rooms when we were all done she just said, ‘Well, it is what it is.’”

Hmmm...found the intro...I forgot for some reason that it was all about this long gown trailing through the grass...woman, wife, mother of the early 2oth century...
"I am only too thankful not to have a vote myself"
There's more! The theft of Leonard B.'s umbrella (right before Tibby's Do we bow or do we...) Oh, Leonard. Leonard. Are you really that poor. Leonard, don't go after the umbrella! Leonard, stop! You don't even know that you're chasing your own doom! Leonard, Leonard, nooooooo....Shoot, I guess his fate is sealed.
"Redgrave rejects any suggestion the narrative reinforces predestination – 'I don’t believe in fate for a second. Why should I?' – but says that since the film was shot she has come increasingly to 'share James’s belief in humans and in extraordinary processes of nature.'"

The weather's really nice...should probably go outside...
