Scope and content
Thanks Beaton for having him to stay. Was glad to know the 'poetic' part of the country where Beaton lives. The film is low budget. Almost everything seems to be done by Mrs Russell and a 'bearded American dress designer'. It is jolly, but hopes it does not go on for too long. Thinks the budget will keep everyone moving.
