$15.00 a week for a room. Really


$15.00 a week for a film made in 2004, really I could see $15.00 a week in 1950's could of made it $50.00 or $75.00 a week.

Isn't this the point of the movie: that Ms. Munson is solidly stuck in the past? Isn't this the reason why she loves her life in an anachronistic way? She writes checks to Bob Jones University for 5 dollars and waits for the college to mention her in its printed publication. This is the thing that accentuates her relationship with Mr. Dorr. He lives in the past with his ancient volumes and she lives in the past in literally every way.
