of course I knew what the outcome would be, but I really hoped it would be different

I think this would have been an even better film if they kept the court scene. It feels too disjointed at the moment, like they're just standing around so the full extent of the mental trauma doesn't hit as much (also i would love watching Martha realise her feelings). Its a good film but it is quite choppy.

This was a less satisfying story than the [first version](https://trakt.tv/movies/these-three-1936) from 1936, despite the fact that this version faced up to the actual accusation (_These Three_ shied away and euphemised it as heterosexual fornication).
