What I really liked about the movie was not just Edith & Lucille but mostly the men in the film Edith's father never tries to push Allen on his daughter he just reminds her that he likes her. Edith tells her father she's aware of Allen's affections for her but she doesn't feel the same & her dad drops the subject Carter sees a lot of himself in Edith. He wants the best for his daughter he took one look at Thomas & wasn't impressed with him his spidey senses went off "I don't like this guy" Carter even tells Thomas to his face stay away from my daughter you're nothing but trouble. As for Allen he's one good guy that I really like I kinda wished Edith ended up with him after Thomas was killed but Edith would've had to contend with Allen's mom & sisters as in-laws. Allen's family doesn't like Edith because she speaks her mind, calls things out as she sees them & she doesn't care what people think about her. The look on Allen's face when she tells his mom & sisters she would rather die a widow he had a look of admiration & "Damn you're hot Edith" Allen looked glad someone told his family off. He even shares the same interests as Edith but he doesn't act like a jerk he knows Edith isn't really into him he cares about Edith so much so he reminds her to be careful around Thomas & his sister. Allen doesn't behave like a spoiled brat like Raoul does with Christine I know at the end of the movie when Allen's mom sees the injuries that was inflected on her son by Edith's husband & sister she will blame Edith for it. Thomas is a tragic figure he really fell for Edith but he was too weak to stand up to his sister & when he finally did get the courage to do so it was too late Edith & Allen are nearly killed by Lucille & Thomas ends up getting murdered himself. Thomas really wanted to let go of the past & move on with Edith but Lucille wasn't having it Thomas wasn't a cold & cruel person unlike his sister but damn Tom has got the sexiest voice I ever heard. How ironic that Tom Hiddleston's characters name is Thomas when he's name is also Thomas lol.
The look of this actor is captivating, harmonizes actor and character depending on the role. His look reminds me a lot of Michael Fassbender and Matthew Macfadyen, these are eyes that seem to carry many secrets, whether good or bad, and invites you to look deep in the soul.
This reminds me of the similar love declaration scene in Jane Eyre! Thomas Sharpe’s words to Edith are quite similar to what Edward Rochester says to Jane Eyre!
I think, in a way it is very suiting that the confession seems fake/copied because by this point in the movie, we dont really know if he's a good or bad guy
I love the leads and the whole thing.. BUT why did they have to steal the romantic line from Jane Eyre? Or is it there intentionally, as a wink wink type of a referenceonly a repetive reader would recognize? Do enlighten me, please..
I heard on an interview that Guillermo Del Toro spent 8 years doing research before he wrote the script. It was Del Toro's goal to make movie with a gothic romance theme. I am presuming during the course of his research, Del Toro read Jane Eyre (maybe multiple times). I think Del Toro taking the language from Jane Eyre was him giving homage to one of the greatest gothic romance novels. Also the language that is well known to those of us who have read or seen a production of Jane Eyre many times would lead us to think Thomas was sincere in his love for Edith and this was true in the end. For the casual reader or those who have only seen one production of Jane Eyre wouldn't recognize the language that readily.
Omg I honestly kept thinking how these are the best onscreen kisses I've seen 😳 They're so intimate, if they were down eachother's throats this scene would have read off much different. But I do agree the first couple of seconds were awkward as I think Thomas seemed like he was holding back.
It’s supposed to be. She’s an inexperienced woman and he isn’t really in love with her. When he actually develops feelings for her, the kissing becomes noticeably more passionate.
Ehhh considering the time ( late 19th century) it was actually quite daring. Women where not supposed to take initiative and you couldn’t kiss a man you’re not at least are engaged to. And aren’t most first kisses awkward? In real live I mean
When Tom basically gets his own name in a movie 👌
Such a beautiful Gothic romance. This is a wonderful movie.
Damn, I would love to have a love confession like that.
Tom hiddleston is equals to perfection, handsome and pure acting.

Tom Hiddleston.....so handsome
Gothic romance at its absolute Best
So beautiful perfect acting tom.mia. ❤️
Loki and Alice jaj aww 🤭

I love this scene ❤❤
This love confession was almost a copy paste of the one in Jane Eyre
That's all I could think of! Was that intentional, do you think, or was it just laziness? XD
I think, in a way it is very suiting that the confession seems fake/copied because by this point in the movie, we dont really know if he's a good or bad guy
Its nearly identical
He was faking everything at this point so I think Thomas was using that.
It’s plagiarism at its finest cool

He literally just recited Rochester speech from Jane eyre
What is the song title at the end?
That kiss is sweet but awkward though!
How is it awkward?
YES! I thought so too. Its like two closed fists bumping into one another.

Her father is right. He is in no position to provide and therefore not fit for marriage. Only in movies does this look adorable.
Isn't it 2:27 almost exact quote from Jane Eyre?
Yes it’s one of the directors faves haha
Well you can’t do that now with covid
That was the most awkward kiss I think I have ever seen on screen. Lol.
I love Mia but I stg she can’t do a kiss scene to save her life.
