Garvie is witty and her sparkle in the eye is ABSOLUTELY PERFECT - watch where she accosts Mr Darcy after he eaverüsdrops on her conversation with Charlotte and Col. Foster. <br />I agree that Ehle looks too old, amd STAID!

When I heard her say "It is not very likely" I imagined she was the perfect English Rose. Priscilla Morgan is the perfect Mrs. Benet. She exhibits the right words and flexion of a perfect performance without Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17455548321895333788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6589226281542951200.post-22223257475251272272011-06-13T15:08:40.554-04:002011-06-13T15:08:40.554-04:00Mary Boland of the 1940 adaptation, portrayed my f...Mary Boland of the 1940 adaptation, portrayed my favorite Mrs. Bennet.The Rush Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13667282586023023623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6589226281542951200.post-36105011571406625802011-03-21T08:22:03.582-04:002011-03-21T08:22:03.582-04:00Thanks Vince, for the image and the warning.

All four films have their merits, and everyone has their own favorites, which is what makes this such a biased exercise. Still, it was fun to do, and I got to comment on all kinds of random things that usually wouldn't cover. I will eventually mash up the other films, but it would be very helpful if another Northanger Abbey was Alexa Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10086472405632748174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6589226281542951200.post-39124947387712958772010-05-14T12:52:35.300-04:002010-05-14T12:52:35.300-04:00What a fun post, Alexa!

No performances can touch theirs (although I did like David Rintoul and Elizabeth Garvey as well in the 1980 version)<br /><br />I also think David Bamber was spot on as Mr. Collins. He was just deferring enough and yet still sneaky and used car salesman-ish to really work the characterLori Johnstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11916838797379853699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6589226281542951200.post-3557954769346374442010-05-14T12:45:35.760-04:002010-05-14T12:45:35.760-04:00Wonderful, Alexa!

I agree with you the 1995 version is the one most spot on with casting!<br /><br />If you haven't noticed yet, I am very partial to the 1940's version, mostly because it is the first one I ever saw and my love of black and white movies! I do agree that it is hard to compare it alongside all the other adaptions because it is so Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07081700715706497061noreply@blogger.com
