Watched the LMN Nellie Bly movie

My god is it so wrong on what actually happened there according to what she wrote in her book

Like if my gosh, why was it labeled as about Nellie Bly if your not gonna be faithful to the source material?

Like I wrote a whole essay about her for school once. I’ve read 10 Days in a Madhouse. I researched Elizabeth (her real name)

That movie actually pissed me off when I was watching it because I was constantly like “This didn’t happen,” “That’s not accurate..” “Where are they pulling this from??”

Like I hope no one is taking that as their main source of information and they actually read or listen to the book

Risky Business

Make the Master proud of you by being good citizens. Respect the authorities, whatever their level; they are God’s emissaries for keeping order. It is God’s will that by doing good, you might cure the ignorance of the fools who think you’re a danger to society. Exercise your freedom by serving God, not by breaking the rules. Treat everyone you meet with dignity. Love your spiritual family. Revere…

the most devastating trope in my opinion is when characters spend the whole story haunted by a ghost or entity only to realize at the end that it was themselves the whole time

Nellie Bly (1864-1922), American journalist, writer, industrialist, inventor and charity worker

Elizabeth Cochran Seaman, known by her pen name Nellie Bly, is best known for a record-breaking 1889 trip around the world in 72 days (in emulation of Jules Verne’s fictional character Phileas Fogg) and an 1887 exposé in which she faked insanity to reveal conditions in the New York women’s mental institution at Blackwell’s Island.

Nellie Bly: I'm going to beat Phileas Fogg's time around the world in 80 days! I can't afford any variables or delays! A single weather delay, illness, or missed connection could mean a failure of this entire endeavor!

Also Nellie Bly, as soon as she hits Singapore: Well, I can't not buy a monkey.

i love when a character is a ghost but in a tragic way instead of a scary way. i love when a character has been dead from the beginning but is still holding on to stay in the narrative. i love when a character could choose to resent the living but ends up loving them instead. i love when a character drives the story but isn’t quite there enough to be at the center of it. i love when the ghosts are the protectors instead of the ones causing the harm. i love when a character is at the heart of the story because depending on where you began it, no matter how you told it, the story is about the ghost who struggled to keep their humanity
