how do you even pronounce "morfydd"?

[yurasama_love]

Damn Welsh language.

[snuffyqui45]

I think it's More-fith.

At least I believe that's how the "dd" in Welsh goes.

[fionaapple]

thanks! i wouldn't even have known where to begin with that pronunciation lol

IDK if it bodes well that I've heard nothing about this and it's coming out in 2 months.

[screamingintune]

it can't possibly be worse than Kate Beckinsale's last attempt at Austen. her version of Emma feels more like a horror movie lmfao

[madamezuzu]

It's bad!? I didn't see that, but I loved her as Hero. Fuck, well hopefully this will be better.

Did you see Romola's Emma? Is that any good?

[yurasama_love]

Not OC, but Romola's Emma was lovely!
That's actually where her icon is from.

I'll watch the hell out of this, I am an Austen stan forever

fave film adaptation is 2009 Emma, followed closely by 1995 Pride & Prejudice

fave book is a tie between Persuasion and Emma.

I'm still waiting for my perfect Persuasion adaptation. SOMEDAY

also I recently watched Pride & Prejudice & Zombies and it was ridiculous fun. Like I didn't expect it to be high art or totally faithful to the book but it was loads of fun and ridiculousness, which is what I wanted.

I think I like every adaptation except the Lost in Austen mini-series which I despise with all my heart (just because she got in the middle of Lizzy and Darcy -.-)

[war_machine_rox]

Lol I kind of love Lost in Austen because it's so awful and it gave me him

[losodioatodos]

haha! I only liked that they made Caroline Bingley a lesbian and it was like "OF COURSE" moment to me ahhaha!

[yurasama_love]

I'll watch it.

[kawaiiairbender]

I don't have one.

I want more period films with poc :(

[fionaapple]

have you seen belle with gugu mbatha-raw?

[tangerinefriday]

So good! I like that they addressed the issue of race without making it the ONLY THING that drives the story.

Gugu is such a good romantic lead (also considering Beyond the Lights). She needs to be in more good movies like this, Nicholas Sparks is slowly killing the genre.
