Hello!
I'm really looking forward to all the new and exciting things you plan for your blog! But one thing I noticed as I was looking over your films is that you have no stars (*) by 'Pirates of the Caribbean'. I have only seen the first one, which I believe should have a star, and I'm not planning on seeing the other ones, in that they are very dark. I often use your site to look for new films but seeing no star by the 'Pirates' made me weary of other films that don't have stars. If you could perhaps do something about it that would be wonderful, seeing as I really, really enjoy your site:) Sorry if I sound a bit mean, I'm not intending to be, I'm just concerned. Thank you!
Lady Agatha,
Thank you so much for mentioning this error on the Recommended Period Films page. I've corrected it and taken the opportunity to add more information to the films that were marked with stars. Take a look and if you have any other suggestions please don't hesitate to mention them! :)
I'm so glad to hear that this page is of use to you!
Miss Laurie,
Thank you so much for adding more detial to the movies in your 'Recommended period films' section. It's so helpful, and I look forward to looking into more period films in the future!
Lady Agatha
