With the Great War fast approaching, this story
Very good movie silly ending
Nice movie but with a stupid ending and I don't mean the mindless happy end at the end of the movie. The problem is the stupid solution the writers came up with to justify how the girl discovered her rapist. The night the doctor raped her everyone was drunk and clearly everyone could be the girl's rapist. But when the girl realizes that the rapist is the doctor because he reeked of whiskey it's silly because anyone who would approach her and reeked of whiskey could be her rapist. It's not a strong evidence of someone's guilt the smell of whiskey especially in Scotland when the action takes place where whiskey is their national drink and everyone drinks whiskey so anyone could be accused of being the rapist. In my opinion, the identification of the rapist should be done by other elements, e.g. A button from the doctor's clothes, his watch, an element belonging to the doctor. It would be even more dramatic if the doctor himself approached her and told her that he was her rapist and asked her to forgive him. But identifying the doctor as a rapist because he reeked of whiskey is absurd and comical. The writers should have worked on it more to come up with a more plausible explanation of the identity of the rapist. Other than that the movie is very good and worth watching. The actors were all very good and Hermione Corfield who played the girl was also very good.
