OK, I'm not saying the Masterpiece "Great Expectations" is necessarily worth watching, but if you enjoy the sight of a pillowy-lipped young man being taught to dance by another young man, you might might watch the beginning of the second hour. IJS.
I mean, also Gillian Anderson.
It's 87 or something ridiculous here. ::fans self::
I didn't know Gillian Anderson was
Great Expectations!
I knew about
House of Mirth
and
Bleak House,
though.
I miss Gillian Anderson.
Went to see Cabin in the Woods; Gave a urine sample for a drug test;
These two things in a row made me laugh heartily.
PiBaby is DARLING!
20K of plumbing?! HO. LEE. SHIT.
Just got back from grocery store. I have been rockin' productivity like a rockin' thing today, so I am pretty happy about that.
Also, I am doing a series of guest blog posts for a local KC company, so I'm pretty jazzed -- the first post went up today: [link]
I'm finishing up and will soon email my interview questions for Seanan McGuire/Mira Grant. OMG FUN!!! But I have to pare it down. SO MANY POSSIBLE QUESTIONS.
Now if I can just manage that, putting up and finishing the loads of laundry I have in and a shower, I will be able to go to sleep happy. Oh, and Eureka tonight!
I didn't know Gillian Anderson was Great Expectations!
She is a fully wackadoo Miss Havisham. It should be streaming on pbs.org.
NO WAY. Oh, I have to see that.
Here's Part 1: [link] It's one hour, part 2 is two hours.
These two things in a row made me laugh heartily.
Well, the shopping came between them briefly. I had to shop quickly because I had drunk a bottle of water during the movie in anticipation of the test.
Wait, Gillian Anderson is old enough to play Miss Havisham?

And if the pillowy-lipped young man has INCREDIBLE bone structure and the young man teaching him was in a Dr.Who 2-parter that you quite enjoyed? Even better.
t /cleared some backed-up Masterpiece from my DVR this weekend.
Also playing Miss Havisham: Helena Bonham Carter. Maybe between the two performances, the common impression of the character will shift from the very elderly old-movie versions back toward Dickens's 50-ish?
