Austen Season trailer preview
SQUEE!!!! A trailer finally! And what a beautiful trailer it is! Put together very well, and had pretty music.
Northanger Abbey looks like it will be very good. We'll get the theater scene in this version! How nice to spot Mr. and Mrs. Allen, the General, James Moreland, Eleanor Tilney, and John Thorpe. At the dance John Thorpe seems to tower over Catherine and dances uncomfortably close to her. Catherine reads James' letter out loud to Miss Tilney. Henry Tilney wears tall hats and makes a dashing figure. What a look he gave Catherine at the theater! Carey Mulligan is a very pretty Isabella and I liked the shot of her whispering secrets to Catherine. In my opinion, Felicity Jones (Catherine Morland) looks like Kate Beckinsale when she played Emma.
I'm getting more excited about Mansfield Park, thanks to the trailer. Finally! Some shots of Edmund! Yippee!!!!!! And what a fine looking fellow he is. He has a nice stare while reclining on a sofa (possibly watching Mary play her harp?). He smiles at Fanny and their hands touch. (AWWW!!!!) Even when he's upset he's handsome. Mary Crawford's harp is played. Both Bertram girls admire Henry Crawford, who is not in the least ugly. I'm still unsure about Billie but I'm starting to warm up to her more; I liked the different range of emotion I glimpsed her show.
I haven't yet read or seen any of the other adaptations of Persuasion, but it looks good and I will very likely see it.
*siggggh* Those in the UK are so lucky; just about a month to go!!
