MOVIE TASK

This video is from '' When calls the heart''. I have chosen this video because it is my favorite scene of the movie. In this scene there is a conversation between Elizabeth Thatcher and her father Mr. Thatcher. Elizabeth Thatcher , a cultured young teacher in 1910, read the dairy of aunt Elizabeth . From her dairy she learnt that her aunt had a posting to a remote western part of the country and never came back. she asked why her aunt went there and did not come back.  she also want to go in a remote village as a teacher but she is afraid.   Her father explained the reason of her aunts leaving home and human emotion. In my opinion this is one of the best movie scenes.
