Pride & Prejudice (2005)
"I wouldn't dance with him for all of Derbyshire, let alone the miserable half."
It’s always that lake scene but I fell for MacFadyen’s eyes. (“There’s something pleasant about his mouth when he speaks…”). Thibaudet’s music fills my soul with dawn light, the cinematography's a perfected craft, every action a fluid dance.
Gentlest of reminders that first impressions are not true conclusions.
Mrs. Darcy…

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Mistakes in Stranger Things - Season 5
Stranger Things 5: A Train Wreck of Lazy Writing and Brand Blunders When Stranger Things first dropped in 2016, it was a masterpiece of atmosphere and tight storytelling. It felt like a love letter to the 80s. Fast forward to Season 5, and that love letter has been shredded. What we got instead was a bloated, nonsensical mess that felt like the creators were just checking boxes to get it over with. It wasn't just a disappointment; it was a total collapse of the logic and stakes that made us care about Hawkins in the first place.

Do you know, I've never read this. Romance always turns me off a bit.
I love that story!
This is another one that I've not watched! But your review has me really intrigued!
I always think back to "You've Got Mail". "She was too proud.... Or was it that she was too prejudiced & Mr. Darcy was too proud?"
Pride & Prejudice Is a dreamy story.
Listen. He was my computer background for years. I love you most ardently. SO GOOD.
Oh I adore the film so much (personally believe it's the best adaptation). It's literally top 5 comfort films of all time for me and you picked out specifically everything that takes it up a notch for me - the score, the cinematography and the performances in such a beautiful way! Taste Mackenzie, TASTE!! (that hand flex scene??? if you know you know)
