P&P Anniversary

Tomorrow is 6 years since I first watched Pride and Prejudice (2005). I felt like watching it tonight, but decided to check my archives first. Yup, the anniversary is tomorrow. :D

P&P - the movie that started my obsession with British lit.

So you are a P&P '05 convert? That is, you were converted to the wonderful world of period drama by P&P '05? I'm shocked...

Yes. My period book or movie experience prior to it was reading Little Women when I was a kid, and reading Anna Karenina in 2000. I might have seen the movie Little Women around when it came out, but I know I saw it a few years ago. Oh, and I grew up with Anne of Green Gables. However, it was seeing P&P '05 (and falling massively in love with it) that led to me reading the book in 3 days and then onto other Austen books, then Bronte, and beyond.

Aha, I see! That's very cool that it inspired you so much!

Yay! :)

Haha, yeah. You are forever in my debt, but I don't like to boast ;D

It changed my life, too, so of course I had to pass on the goodness!

It's a good debt to owe.

There are worst ways to start an obsession.

Do tell. I am intrigued.

Oh, and my roommie wonders how you love Trainspotting so much. I wasn't sure if it was the movie or Ewan or both that you love.
