Backbencher

Once upon a time, on a dairy farm in a faraway land, there lived two lovers, Lucinda and Rob. These two lovers lived with their cows, which were of great value and prosperity. Rob works hard milking the cows while Lucinda works around the house. Everything is going great and they are in love. Rob then proposes to her. Even though Lucinda is very surprised, she starts to worry that the, spark if you will, may fade away from their love. She then tells her best friend, Drosophillia. On the way, she runs over a mysterious old, old Maori woman. She tries to help the old woman out, but all the woman says is Keep Warm. Lucinda then strolls into town to tell Drosophillia the news. They talk about it and Lucinda returns home. When Rob and Lucinda are sleeping, their quilt is magically stolen. In the morning, Lucinda finds the old woman with it. She then puts Rob through a series of tests to see if the love is still there. While she is worried about her relationship, she sees the old Maori woman with her quilt late at night. Lucinda then decides to give away their cows to get this quilt back. Rob is furious and leaves her. Lucinda gets the cows back by giving up her ring that Rob gave her. By this time, Rob is seeing Drosophillia. They actually get married. Lucinda tries to get him back by giving him one of her most prized possessions, a box of old children shoes and sandals. Drosophillia throws them away in a lake. Rob finds out what Drosophillia did and in short, gets back together with Lucinda. They seem to live happily ever after.

At first, I thought this movie was a little awkward. To tell you the truth, I didn’t want to continue watching it, but I did. It wasn’t too bad, just a little different. I really liked how the director made this old Maori woman have kind of like magical powers. People might have thought old Maori women have magical powers back in the day, because they have been around. I recommend this to most, but like I said, it is a little different, for me anyways.
