The Crimson Petal

I changed my blog header. Do you like it? Does that work for you? I got rid of the nonsense title and stuck with my messy, weird handwriting.

Speaking of weird! Let's talk Victorian prostitution stories!

Meet my new favorite Beeb production, The Crimson Petal and the White.

If you ever had a question about whether women and children in Victorian London had a hard time, this show responds in the affirmative. Shit was tough.

It's a classic love story: man falls in love with a prostitute. Man has a mad wife. Prostitute's got her eye on the prize. You know, classic.

Watch it. It's beautiful and great and I loved it.

I am a fallen woman, but I assure you: I did not fall. I was pushed.
