Pride and Prejudice
Woahhhh ..... a must-watch show! Love the dialogue and the plot behind it. The cast are well-chosen to portray the characters in the story, and not forgetting to mention the ever-lovely Keira Knightley who was chosen to portray the head-strong Elizerbeth Bennet. But being a love-movie buff, here's my fav quote:
"You are too generous to trifle with me. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes are unchanged, but one word from you will silence me on this subject forever... You must know - surely you must know that it was all for you... I would have to tell you, you have bewitched me body and soul and I love and love and love you. And never wish to be parted from you from this day forward."
Mr. Darcy (Chapter 58)
Mr. Darcy (Chapter 58)
This quote was from the final few scenes when Elizerbeth was strolling down her compound when she found it difficult to fall asleep, and along came Mr. Darcy, who confessed his porfound love to her that she gladly accepted. So sweet~
I found myself in a rush to complete alot of books that are in movie releases. I'm currently on Chronicles of Narnia, which is a few hundred page thick that I am starting to think I cannot complete it in time. The show will be screening on Dec 9, along with Memoirs of a Geisha (another great book but starting to doubt my ability to complete it in time.) Prior to that I was done reading Harry Potter: Half-Blood Prince. And now, I am obliged to finish Pride and Prejudice.
I am not complaining; those are great books. Really wish to have the time and determination to finish them in time fer the movies. Well, at least I know what to expect. However some say that the movies are too short to relay what was written in the books. Well fer Harry Potter: Goblet of Fire that was the case. In the end, the higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
I wil still read the books despite possible disappointments.
Going to have Thanksgiving Dinner later in the day (filled with glorious food!) and had been stuffing myself with good food these couple of days. Damn! I dunno if I can win the bet or not. Anyway, tml will be shopping at the outlets (another vice, but a necessary one) fer winter stuff.
Brrr.... getting realllllly cold! And I still have to run outside later to get punish fer my sinful delights. Well it will be back to original shape again after tonight. Den again, Im not complaining!
