Thanks to Rochelle I remembered to watch Masterpiece Theater last night. They are airing the complete Jane Austen Collection. Next Sunday they will be airing Northanger Abbey . This week they began with Persuasion. It was amazing. I loved it! It was so nice to watch an enjoyable romantic clean movie! Jane Austen was such an amazing author!








What shows/movies have you been watching?

We rented Amazing Grace last week and it was excellent. I highly recommend it.

I totally watched Persuasion last night and loved it. I am in love with Captain Wentworth! Hope you are well... V

Oh- I need to watch that! I wish I had been there with you! I could use a little GNO before next week!

PS- I can't get on Rochelle's site still! I'll have to call you and figure it out!

Laura, I'm sorry you can't get on. I wonder why? Do you rss subscribe or use bloglines? If you do, you have to resubscribe.

Persuasion was good, huh? Captain Wentworth was hot. I was disappointed that they cut the scene where he writes her the letter. That, to me, is the best scene in the book.

LOVED IT! I must say, Wentworth was my kind of Captin. ;) I did marry a blonde...

Shhhhh. I've been watching cheesy romances since Christmas. Oh, but I did watch Emma the other night. Guess that's sort of intelligent cheesy romance at least...

I seriously thought Anne was going to SWALLOW Capt Wentworth at the end. Yowza! Didn't know she had it in her.

Aren't these movies dreamy? :)

Thank goodness for a DVR!

I thought Captian W. was so darling. Yet, I didn't love the movie. Probably because my hopes were too high, and I have had Jane Eyre playing non-stop for the last few weeks. Just can't get enough of Mr. Rochester. Really not fair. Two very different movies.

Darn that Atonement is rated "R" ... I see advertizements for it all the time. It looks really good. I have not banned all "R"s, but usually just don't want to go there.

Okay call me and remind me to watch it this Sunday. I'm bumed I missed it. Guess that's what I get for not blogging for almost a month. But I'm back and I've updated. I still have more to do....

I missed the first one but I can't wait till Sunday for the second one. I agree, a romantic, clean movie- yeah!!
