The story here moves way to quickly and it’s hard to grasp how much time has passed between scenes. Still for the sheer scale of things I think they did quite well, even though it felt like there were some historical inaccuracies.

girboss. 
tove lo slayed throughout this whole thing, we stan a 1850’s milf… 
ulrika and kristina enemies to lovers (or just besties🙄) trope!

i can’t stop thinking about how during this time, in another part of america, emily dickinson is pining for her brothers (soon to be) wife… same time, same country yet two completely different worlds. 

possible spoiler:
tove lo really do be serving sue gilbert influencer realness at the end ✨
