Warm fuzzies

[ringsandcoffee]

Watching Pride and Prejudice still gives me warm fuzzies. Reading or watching Jane Eyre still gives me warm fuzzies and heart flutters. I got totally excited when I found Love, Stargirl, a sequel to Stargirl, at B&N yesterday. Anne of Green Gables and Anne of Avonlea should be watched by every person at least once. I totally want to have a kid lately. Would be nice to be married, too.

Fall break, and I need to get some things done, but watching movies and reading books are also on my list.

Hooray for P&P and JE! I have been hankering to watch P&P lately.

Do you think you'll buy that new edition of it?
The only thing that seems new is the "further featurettes on the Politics of Dating and The Stately Homes of Pride & Prejudice, Galleries of the 19th Century, and a Pride & Prejudice Family Tree" and book, which who knows what that has in it.

I don't know if I'll buy it. If it had more commentary, like some of the actors, then I'd be more tempted. I like the documentaries and stuff, but how much does it cost?

I bought JE 1983 today. Woot! Can't wait to pop it in the dvd player.

I don't think there is a price listed anywhere. I don't even see it available for pre-order on amazon yet, but I bet it will be about $25, if not more. That actually would be an okay price for someone who didn't have the movie or soundtrack so it will undoubtedly be more *rolls eyes*

How are you liking it? Do you think I should rent it?

Eh, it keeps to the book dialogue almost exactly, and leaves just about everything in. Well, everything except the Helen Burns scene. It's kind of cheesey, but not painfully bad like 1997. I'm only ot the part where Bessie visits, just before she leaves Lowood. I'll keep you updated.

Every time I see you talking about Pride and Prejudice I think: "I should read that." And then I just think: "Wait, is that even something I'd LIKE?"

I watched P&P '05 before I read the book. I read the book because I was so in love with the movie (and I was on vacation at my mom's house with nothing else to do). I don't know if you'd like the book, old British English and very heavy on description and all, so maybe watch the movie first. As for Jane Eyre, if that at all interests you, READ IT FIRST! Srsly.

I actually did read Jane Eyre last year for a class. Not bad, and way better than Wuthering Heights. *shudder*

I've heard WH is not so great. I caught the end of the movie once, not knowing anything about it, and found it quite depressing. If you watch Jane Eyre, watch the 2006 version with Toby Stephens and Ruth Wilson. I'm watching the 1983 version now, which isn't as bad as 1997 (puke), but not that great.
