Icons: Christy (second batch)
Feb. 8th, 2008 12:53 amSince so many expressed fond memories of Christy when I posted my last batch, I decided to make a second, this time with some of the other characters and not just Christy. And yes, there are some of Christy and David, as well as Christy and Neil. ;-)
As always, please comment, credit, and enjoy!
Teasers:

Please, if you take anything, be so kind as to take note of the numbers of the icon(s) you're saving, since I am always experimenting with my styles and I would like to know what people like best. (This helps me so I can make more!) The numbers are above the icons. ;-)
I decided it might be a good idea to explain who the minor characters are, since even I have trouble remembering all their names. ;-)

#2 Miss Alice Henderson
#3 Mountie O'Teale

#6-8 Christy Huddleston

#14 Miss Alice Henderson

#21 Christy and Neil
#22 Doctor Neil MacNeill

But I think the GP version is TOO romcom. Emma is too simple and not complex enough, as is Harriet. Mostly people complain about the grouchy Mark Strong in the KB Emma, but he grows on you. ;-D Frank Churchill is muey perfecto in that version, IMO!! As is Jane Fairfax -- ever since I saw her [Olivia Williams] in that movie I thought she would make the perfect Jane Austen, and lo and behold, they cast her as Jane in Miss Austen Regrets!! :-D Have you seen that one yet?
Lol. True.
Buenos noches!! ;-) I ought to do the same.

I think the issue I had with the film was KB getting on my nerves. Not sure why. I think it might be the nose. :)

Ahhh. Well, I can understand that. I think it helps if you take the character of Emma in a bit of a "deeper" way than just her outer shell. At first glance, she's unbearable, snobbish, selfish, and meddling, but she *does* have a good heart. She tries to be helpful (even if it's in her own misguided way!) and she is very kind to most of the people in her life, her father especially. I think she's not dissimilar to Marianne Dashwood -- high-strung, thinks with her heart rather than her head, spoiled, somewhat selfish, a bit headstrong, and in very great need of a reality check. ;-P lol. But one of her most redeeming qualities IMO is that she learns from her mistakes. :-)
