I just disabled desktop alerts for new emails in Outlook. No idea why that took me two years of using Teams to do…
A tomboyish postulant at an Austrian abbey becomes a governess in the home of a widowed naval captain with seven children, and brings a new love of life and music into the home.
I have now seen the whole of this film for the first time.
My favourite part was doing the Billie Whitelaw “fascist” line from Hot Fuzz whenever Rolf appears.
