As prophesied, a Brideshead Revisited picspam! More specifically, a first-half-hour-of-Brideshead Revisited picspam, before the Catholicism and alcoholism and heterosexuality factor in, and it's all just one big fun opulent boylove celebration. Whoo.

I haven't seen the TV version (I want to someday! I just found out they have it at our public library, so maybe I even will), and I tend not to pay attention to anything while looking at Matthew Goode besides "adkjfladjdalja MARRY ME," but it really, really struck me in that second-to-last cap that he is just looking seriously Irons-esque.

The only thing I know about this film is that Emma Thompson is in it. Didn't know that there was so much pretty in it.

[dollsome]

Lots of pretty, not much Emma Thompson! She plays a supporting role, but she's not in it a whole bunch -- I think she's so big on the posters just because she's the most famous person in it. Anyway, it's definitely worth a watch!

SHUT UP YOU MADE ME CRY BEFORE NOON.

Oh, boy!love, Why are you so tragic!? I need to, like, go re-watch Maurice now and make myself feel better. BECAUSE THEY RUN OFF TO SOUTH AMERICA IN THE END AND ARE HAPPY. I NEED HAPPINESS OTHERWISE IT JUST HURTS MY SOUL.

Hi, my name is Julia and I am terrible at dealing with fictional tragedy and unhappy endings.

[dollsome]

I knowwwwww! Oh, Sebastian/Charles, WOE ALL OVER. And I totally need to see Maurice! But first I need to read Maurice, because that's how I roll. I do have a copy on my shelf right now just waaaaiting to be read, though, so hopefully I'll get around to it soon. Vintage boylove adventures > Moll Flanders. Sorry, Defoe and schoolwork! THWARTED AGAIN.

THIS. I love Maurice so much.

I wandered into this thing all, "These dudes are PRETTY! And there's so much close talking! And I think they're going to kiss, but they NEVER DO" and then they DID. I think I'm going to have to add this to my List Of Movies I Need To Watch Immediately, Goddamit Self, STOP PUTTING THEM OFF.

(Also you changed all your userpics again, I see!)

[dollsome]

DAMN RIGHT THEY DID. :D Watch it, watch it! It kind of gets lamer as it gets straighter, in my (totally unbiased) estimation, but it is so worth a watch.

(Aaaaugh, I didn't mean to! And then suddenly I was! My current hypothesis is that I tire of them so quickly because I get really sick of looking at my keywords, so this time, I made my keywords as concise as possible so there's less to get sick of! Let's see if they stick around longer because of it. They so aren't going to. OPTIMISM.)

I am downloading Disc Two AS WE SPEAK.

(Similarly, I think I tire of mine because I'm always staring at the same six icons when I open the 'browse' feature to scan through and pick one out. So this time I attempted more obvious keywords so I can select one without being all, 'HMMM, WHAT DOES THIS EVEN MEAN???')

How is Ben Whishaw so adorably gorgeous? HOW? :)

[dollsome]

I KNOW, he is such a cutie! I think I need to see him in some other stuff, stat.

[lalumena]

I didn't manage to see the end of it but he was very good in Perfume - freakily fixated but still empathetic. I really must get that out again...

[dollsome]

Ooh, I've wanted to see that for ages! I want to read the book first, though. (And I finally got a copy of it, FOR FREE; bless you, free bookshelf outside the campus bookstore!)
