You asked for it, so here’s an occasional open thread to bitch about anything tangentially related to history, costume, movies, or TV shows! Or whatever else is on your mind right now. Note that URLs are automatically held for moderation, but most anything else goes as long as you’re not bitchier than we are!
Spring is springing and bringing a bunch of new frock flicks finally! Plus we’ve got some classics in our backlog, so plenty to watch and review.
What’s on your to-watch list this month?
The new Sense & Sensibility on Hallmark? It had potential IMO! I was let down by the costumes! The designer seemed to be going for Bridgerton? It made no sense, and they were just eyesores! Ellen at least made her clothes make sense or told us who these characters were! In the new Sense and Sensibility, I genuinely couldn’t tell Marianne and Elinor apart! Elinor seemed to be the younger sister? It’s Hallmark, So what did I expect?! What are your thoughts?
I recorded it but haven’t had a chance to watch it yet!
Just binge-watched Halston, with Ewan McGregor. Loved it! I might have to watch it again this weekend. :)
Finished Blue Eyed Samurai, and now looking forward to Shogun
I’m finally watching Pachinko, and it’s so good! It really does justice to the book. Beautiful cinematography, good acting and score, the costumes are great too!
