So I had the lovely pleasure of watching My Antonia on HBO this week, starring the one and only Neil Patrick Harris (post-Doogie). While it does have the cinematography of a Hallmark movie, it is pretty good overall, if only that anyone who will make a Willa Cather movie is on the up and up in my book (pun intended).
It has also reconfirmed my opinion that being a pioneer really was not as fun as Caddie Woodlawn and Laura Ingalls made it out to be. Stringing cranberries around the Christmas tree really doesn't make up for the lack of electricity, communication and transportation. And let's not forget those nasty incidents down at the crick.
