My top 10 literary romances

rachkmc did this at her blog, and asked me to do it too. Since it's her birthday, how can I say no? (She just called hers "Rachel's Favorite Romances," but she stuck to literature and literary adaptations. I'm going to follow her lead in that, or I could never narrow it down to ten. But I'm counting plays as literature. Also, I stole one or two of the pictures off her blog. Thanks, Rachel!)( Image-heavy post ahead! )
Let the games begin
Jun. 22nd, 2011 07:05 pmThe blogs Old-Fashioned Charm and Elegance of Fashion are co-hosting a Period Drama Film Tournament. There are 60 contestants in the first round, paired off against each other; you have to visit both blogs to vote in all 30 polls.
Fond as I am of the Sense and Sensibility feature film, I really wish The King's Speech could beat it and advance to the next round. It doesn't have a snowball's chance in a very hot place, I know, but I still wish it could. However, I'm comforted by the fact that Little Dorrit, Our Mutual Friend, The Scarlet Pimpernel, the BBC Pride and Prejudice, and several of my other favorites are doing well.
