'Jaynestown'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
In a news probably exciting to no one else but me, Gillian Armstrong's My Brilliant Career is finally out on DVD, with a director commentary and various interviews, etc. Whooo!
Also: the trailer for the new Pride and Prejududice, starring Keira Knightley (miscast, IMO) as Elizabeth and Matthew McFadyen of the Spooks/MI-5 fame as Darcy. It doesn't look much like an Austen, but I swoon anyway, because Matthew M. is just so pretty.
They look very modern. . . but pretty.
It was there earlier, but they apparently took it off.
I saw that in Lyra's LJ late last night. Go you for snagging it.
I'll throw it up on my personal web space for the moment,
Wow. I love that song. What a great way to do the trailer.
The rent trailer looked really good.

Judy Davis and Sam Neill? What's not to love? I adore that movie.
Dear producers of new P&P movie,
Lizzy is supposed to be attractively geeky, not heroin chic.
Please make a note of it.
Honestly, I didn't expect Keira to look that plain. She looked all almost-supermodelish in Bend It Like Beckham, but now she looks like a girl with great bone structure, and not that much else.
Thanks for snagging that, Gris. I was kicking myself for not doing so.
Now it's downloading, and I'll be able to look at the pretty again and again.
Edit: Though it messes me up that Mark is blond. Yes, I know he's the original actor, but the first production I saw had brunet Mark and blond Roger, and thus it shall always be in my head.
Rent trailer: I am SO there.
