I went over the accounts placing the women where they belong - women at the well, Mary Magdalene, women anointing Jesus' feet, etc.
She didn't care about the historical significance of the costumes, BUT she did care about portraying the women to be something the Bible didn't say she was.
I believe the scripture bears out that Tamar dressed in the attire of a harlot in the OT. So, there is some significance to the outward appearance here.
She didn't feel it would be right to allow the viewers to have this image of the woman at Jesus' feet, simply because the Bible doesn't bear it out.
Her taking the interpretation of the scriptures seriously blessed me more than getting my way on the correctness of the costume!
