5 stars bc we looooveee unexpectedly-supportive family members and cheesy happy endings (despite hostile times) for our mixed-race, M-M couple!!!
there's just something about the proposal/vows at the end that makes me sooo!!!! they're saying such cheesy things, but considering the era they live in, it's just so special to me that they would still make these "traditional" promises to each other!! they just love each other that much!!!
Small things I NEED to mention:
1. kind of obsessed with how Gareth's truth (that he was just wandering the marsh looking for bugs) from an outside perspective literally sounds like a bad lie 🤣
2. I found it v funny when Gareth was telling Cecilia "I'd hope that a man would be on my side....if I was a young lady, of course!" like...hahaha,,,,gay 😂
