So...

I have now watched Northanger Abbey *points to icon* and the 1995 version of Pride and Prejudice.

I very much enjoyed both. Particularly NA because I had not a clue what it would be about so it was such a pleasant surprise.

I enjoyed the miniseries of P&P better than the movie version I saw two years ago (the 2005 version) mostly because it was so spread out and there was no rush to it.

You are evil quiet_fractures. I blame you for all this. Damn romantic kick, my ass.

I really like this icon. Oh hell, I just adored Mr. Tilney.

And you have been promising me for months you would watch Billie's stuff. *Turning my back on you and stomping off.*

[meganlynn09.livejournal.com]

I will! I just hadn't been in the mood before. Now that I am, I'm gonna get on that. :D

*hugs you* or, at least, *hugs your back*

What should I watch first? It's Mansfield Park and...Ruby in the Smoke, correct?

[kammgirl.livejournal.com]

Yes and there is also her older stuff.

[meganlynn09.livejournal.com]

I've, sadly, not had much interest in her previous works, but I'm not really familiar with everything she's done, so I'll be looking into that. :)

Shakespeare Retold and the Miller's Tale are excellent.

[meganlynn09.livejournal.com]

Yes, those are the ones I was thinking about as well.

[meganlynn09.livejournal.com]

I saw that!! Which just encourages me to watch it even more :D

Hmm...what sort of foreign films?

Oh Mr. Tilney. Definitely too cute.

I remember I enjoyed the movie, but not so much the romance, because like you, it was hard to see or hard to buy. Although, the ending was lovely.

Hee, you have quite a good idea there.

Oh, yes, I should see those both. I've been interested in Love Me If You Dare as I saw a commercial/trailer for it once and that it looked good.

DON'T YOU DARE!

I've never seen either and have been told my many that it is sacrilege to love P&P (the original book) and not have seen Colin Firth. Should I rent it?

Damn romantic kick, my ass.

I'm always on a romantic kick. You can't go wrong with historical romance. Well, you can, but not often. :D

[meganlynn09.livejournal.com]

Well, I wouldn't call it sacrilege, but I certainly enjoyed it. I couldn't honestly tell you if it follows the book (as I never read it), but it's six-50 minute episodes, and very good.

I highly recommend it. :D

I know what you mean!
