1. When she goes horseback riding, she isn't sidesaddle, and there's no fuss made about it. Wasn't that a pretty big deal in those days???

2. Her uncle is so annoying. And a jerk.

3. WHO names their kid Loveday??????????????

4. Her nanny...

5. I thought crinolines went under the skirt????

6. Something about the fishtail braid seemed innaccurate.

7. How did Loveday clean up so quickly???

8. Why did Benjamin never think it was odd that he never met Loveday's family?

9. Where on earth did the underground rooms come from??

10. Why were all the guys wearing eyeshadow???

Don't get me wrong. I'm enjoying it. I'm just puzzled, baffled, and bothered by some things :P

Not only that, but she shows a good deal of bare leg at one point. Queen Nike would have been shocked. (Actually our present queen rides sidesaddle for Trooping the Colour on her official birthday.)

It's a fantasy film. There are no 'those days.'
