You know I'm a "dreamer" ! :)

I have ALWAYS loved Shakespeare and especially that sonnett. So interesting to see the interpretation done in that way.

And yes------COLIN FIRTH IS IS IS IS IS Mr. Darcy. He might as well just change his name to Sir Fitzwilliam Darcy in my opinion.

Did you know that he didn't want to even accept the role?

He didn't think he could do it proper justice.

I mean c'mon!!!

Though, I know acting is just that "ACTING." I would venture a guess that since he is very similar to that kind of demeanor in practically ALL of his acting roles, he may hold in his real life character some of those charms we love and hold dear.

I also read recently that he and Jennifer Ehle dated during that movie. She is from my neck of the woods---NC. Kind of makes the looks, the wit, the kiss, all that more real doesn't it???????

AH_____------------Swoon-------------

You should check out EMMA with G. Paltrow

I have Emma on DVD. I didn't like Gwyneth Paltrow in that much. However, I did like the 2007 version of Persuasion (my favorite Jane Austen book). I found Rupert Penry-Jones to be a much more convincing Captain Wentworth than Ciarán Hinds in the 1995 version.

By the way, I must say that I'm a huge supporter of reading the book before watching the film. As pretty and picturesque as the 2005 Pride and Prejudice was, the '95 version, though 6 hours long, was true to the book.

Oh, and as for Mansfield Park... it's a tie. I liked both the '99 and '07 versions

Sorry, have been out-of-pocket for awhile...

You are speaking my language...British Literature...lovely! May have to dig up those videos to show my senior English crew this year...at least the girls will be happy...haha! I also agree....always read the book first. No movie can do justice to the human imagination!
