    Elizabeth's father was a strange man, dominating his offsprings' lives in an abnormal & paranoid type of way. He appears to have had underlying psychological issues, which clearly affected Elizabeth. She seems to have harbored a mysterious nervous disorder, probably caused by her father's unnatural dominance & demands, placing his daughter under enormous stress. Thank God that Robert was able to rescue the lady, elopement being the only possible alternative. Though their marriage & life together in Italy was a blissful one & healthful in particular for Elizabeth, it's a shame she died so young. Although "love-poetry" isn't among my favorite readings in this form of literature, I recognize the beautiful artistry of the woman's talent.

    When I was a kid everyone had seen the old movie The Barretts of Wimpole St on TV so Robert and Elizabeth's love story was well-known. Charles Laughton played Elizabeth's father and was superbly creepy and manipulative. He would have been an interesting case for the psychiatrists.

    @@thedativecase9733 He would indeed---although, had it been possible, I probably would've preferred Elizabeth geting the help, as she was the one who was affected & suffered from it. Aside from the fact that psychoanalysis wasn't yet widely available or accepted, I doubt Elizabeth ever would've seen a psychiatrist---her father would've forbidden it!

    @@SUECLAPSONLaughton was brilliant. The way his face changes as he reads his favourite daughter's letter to him, from haughty and dictatorial to tragic is so moving. You feel sorry for him, but then he turns and commands Elizabeth's dog, Flush, be destroyed. What an actor! Norma Shearer is such a fine, delicate beauty.Great film.

    Hello Paul, I am very pleased to receive your kind compliments. Your news about the lady you met again is most interesting. The Internet is ideal for such reunions. I heard the Randolph Sutton song that you posted on your channel and I enjoyed it. I sang this song on my KZread channel about 10 years ago. Best wishes Maurice

When I worked for the Electricity Board, she called in to pay her bill, so I memorised the address. She was married then, but when I learned she'd been widowed some time back, I thought I'd get in touch.
