  2. Sentimental nostalgia notice for the Monarchy of Royal Russia. Notice exchange one autocratic government for another autocratic government. NO criticism, just an observation from a 83 year old ritual and ceremony, will not save us, but still, they should remind us that that believe in a human immortal soul, that consciousness continues after death, and that kind, compassionate, generous person we are now continues to make a loving honest personality when our spirit leaves this physical existence. Strong in your faith, remember "eternity" is forever w/love as your guide. Forgive as best you can all the people who hurt you, because grudges and revenge will weaken your ❤️ love, and take away your happiness that is needed to be a strong spiritual soul as love is your comfort and protection from your own hurtful thoughts as we move on when life passes from us…Believe or not, there is proof secular and academic scholarly text, a man called "Yeshua ben Mashiach" lived approximately two thousands years ago, known as a "Wonder Worker" who claimed to be ancestor of King David of Israel.

  6. Not quite halfway through, loving it already, and I just have to comment – this is a great plot, and certainly something different than the usual, the usual Christmas move or any kind of movie! I can't think of any film that features structural engineers, let alone the idea of engineers becoming ghosts.

  7. I guess the woman who used to have furs and jewels and everything and lost it all and he gives her as a present after all that lost he gives her the one thing that must be for her equivalent of one of the most wonderful gifts of all a fur and I don't know if it's a stole or code I can't see it until he puts it on her but it's the kindness of giving her something so expensive into her she knows it's expensive now cuz she's no longer a countess she's their housekeepers from what I can tell or cook I can't quite tell but he gives her a gift that blows her way and you can see how appreciated she is.
