All the Costume Flick Gifs You Could Ever Want

Ain’t no party like a Frock Flicks gif party! We are on the way home from another productive Costume College, so I figured it would be a good time to do a half-assed post about one of my favorite things about the internet… Gifs!

1995 Pride and Prejudice — Someone more clever than I really needs to photoshop an explosion in the background and then this gif will be perfect. BBC’s *Pride and Prejudice*.

Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989) — I’m not sorry. *Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure*.

2009 Desperate Romantics — Me, my senior year of Design school. *Desperate Romantics*.

2007 Becoming Jane — What did you just say to me? *Becoming* *Jane*.

Every payday, about 6.2 minutes before I spend my entire paycheck on some harebrained idea like plane tickets to London with the other 2/3rds of the Broadway Recording Cast. *Another Period.*

Sense And Sensibility 1995 — Oh, Alan. Alan Alan Alan. How missed you are. *Sense and Sensibility*.

Asking the important questions. *Desperate Romantics.*

Marie Antoinette (2006) — Asking the other important question. *Marie Antoinette*.

the borgias 2011-13 — Pontifical face palm. *Borgias*.

2011-13 The Borgias — This gif gets more ridiculous the longer you watch it. *Borgias*.

1993 Much Ado About Nothing — Admit it. You’d be quaking in your knee-high boots if you saw this coming at you. *Much< Ado About Nothing*.

2004 Stage Beauty — Subtle. *Stage Beauty*.

Jane Eyre (2006) — Of all the Rochesters, Toby Stephens wasn’t my favorite, but that smirk definitely was. *Jane Eyre*.

Restoration (1995) — Is it just the naked Robert Downey, Jr. in the bed, or is it hot in here? *Restoration*.

Young Victoria (2009) — No, it’s definitely hot in here. *Young Victoria*.

2001 The Affair of the Necklace — I’ll be in my bunk. *The Affair of the Necklace*.

I’ll be in my bunk. Gotta love a Firefly reference! OOh- time for another Inara/Zoe fantasy. And Mel. Mel’s bum in the desert. Hell to the yeah.

What about Violet Dowager Countess of Grantham?

And Hepburn’s Eleanor of Aquitaine.

There’s an episode of Red Dwarf (“Beyond a Joke”, season 8) where the crew enters a virtual “Pride and Prejudice” simulator. It ends with Kryten blowing up Mr. Bingley’s gazebo with a Sherman tank. Highly entertaining. I know nil about costume accuracy.

And Captain Jean-Luc Picard, ‘Make it so.’

beautiful costumes, snark, knowledge AND Firefly references………………..I love you ladies! x x x

How can you NOT like Toby Stephens as Rochester? He’s my hands down fave. Now I liked the idea of Michael Fassbender as Rochester, but I was too distracted by Mia What’s-Her-Face to enjoy that movie. She’s about as awkward as Kiera Knightley when it comes to period movies.

But I digress….and head to my bunk to contemplate Toby Stephens’ smirk.

Re. Toby S. as Mr. R.: He’s too damned handsome. Most screen Rochesters are. Charlotte Bronte carefully describes him as close to ugly (although we, Readers, know that he’s a man of the world, with all that implies). I’ve spent far too much mental time trying to figure out who could actually play Bronte’s Rochester. George C. Scott wasn’t bad, as I recall. Too old and too American, but he gets the character.

Oh my. That chocolate eating last one of Adrien Brody

Sorry, not sorry, Orson Welles Rochester puts me in my bunk…

Not the necklace gif! swoons, lands in bunk

While I’m ridiculously late to the party… even if it isn’t my favourite historical movie, or even the best- there is something about ‘Becoming Jane’; like most, I love Austen- & I have a closer connection than the average fan: thanks to my mother’s obsessive interest in genealogy, I learnt that we’re descended from the Austens- via one of Jane’s brothers – I don’t have the paperwork to hand, so I can’t remember which one.
That scene tho… forget the sex- sometimes the seduction is the more fun part!
