Trailer for the new 2008 Sense & Sensibility!

[olde_fashioned]

It may be viewed here. I'm getting rather excited! (although if the rumours are true and Willoughby does seduce Eliza in the opening scene then I am going to be sorely dissapointed) But I like how this Elinor looks, and I love the idea of adding a duel. *hee*

Does anyone else think that they are trying to make this Marianne look like Kate Winslet in the 1995 S&S? Her hair, etc.? And the velvet dress she wears in the promo photo and the scene with Colonel Brandon and the hawk in this preview is allegedly the same dress Kiera Knightley wears to Pemberley. View and compare photos here.

I am also very excited - I enjoyed Davies' adaptation of Northanger Abbey this spring. My biggest fear is that they will merely copy the previous film (which is what this year's Persuasion and Mansfield Park did).

Am friending you, because you seem extremely cool. And your reading list is amazing.

Did they really just copy them? I was afraid of that. It will be interesting to see.

Thank you! *is flattered* (ah, yes, my reading list...now if only my progress could be equally as impressive...)
