I dig it! Sending virtual pink drinks your way...

I'd like to hear what you guys have to say on the Keira Knightley version of Pride and Prejudice, because the costume designer took a departure from what had been done so many times. I'm not a fan of that particular version, and I'm definitely not a fan of Knightley's hair in the film, but I'm curious what your ladies' take on it is.

Thanks!

We've talked about taking on Jane Austen films, perhaps in a bunch to compare. I haven't seen the Keira Knightley P&P, but demode_kvc has & pretty well ripped into it, iirc. Yep, the hair was one of the many problems ;-) Would be great fun to podcast about that one.

Of course, the holy grail of all Austen filmed adaptions is the BBC/A&E Pride & Prejudice with Colin Firth & Jennifer Ehle. Brilliant acting & excellent costumes. Hard to top that!

The BBC Pride and Prejudice is my pr0n. No other version can come anywhere close.

It kinda makes you wonder why anyone else bothers to adapt that book. I mean, really!

Good sound quality. Enjoyed the chit chat. It's made me want to go watch it again, which I think I'll do tonite.

Thanks!

I really enjoyed the podcast!

I think they did use a cone to shield Kirsten's face, at least part of the time. There's video of her with one at the Vogue shoot. I would assume they used the person who did the movie hair for it..

You can see her being sprayed with hair powder with about 2:21 left in the video. (The counter counts down and not up!)

There's a smaller clearer one here:

I never noticed the powder line on her forehead - I thought that was a neat observation! :-)

Um - Not sure what I am doing wrong, but I can't seem to get access to the podcast. Nor can I find it in iTunes website.

Any suggestions as to what is going wrong?

BTW - when I click on this link I simply get a page of html code.

[trystbat]

Hmm... it might not be searchable in iTunes yet -- that can take a few days. But if you open iTunes & go to the Advanced menu, select "Subscribe to Podcast," & then paste this url http://www.trystancraft.com/frockflicks/frockflicks.xml into the dialog box, you can subscribe to it.

That url is an RSS feed & the latest versions of Firefox & IE can read it directly, but earlier versions can't. That might be part of the problem.

Please let me now if you need more help!
