I am 21 ...Thanks, I hope I will pass them easily...<br />I am 21 =) Before I came to university - do you say "college" for "university" in England ? - I understood, spoke and wrote English very badly and then I met the boy who became my boyfriend. He watched a lot of series (American for the most) so I started to watch with him, then we watch movies in English too. We don't stop and I even tried to read in English. I read for the thousand times Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and recently I read The Professor by Charlotte Brontë. I will go on with English books ^^<br />I would like very much my English to be perfect but the American people, especially in series, speak a very bad language...<br />You know, for a 16 years old girl, you write very well !

I think I will watch the other adaptation of Mansfield Park after my tests at the end of December, then I will share my opinion about it ;)<br />I am glad my english is understandable, I was not quite sure because I had some troubles with speaking when I went to Scotland last summer.

Let me know what you think of the 2007 one, it isn't as good and the story is very different I warn you! <br />Your english is brilliant! especially to watch the series anf films as well!!<br /><br />thank you!

I didn't enjoy the book as well as others Jane Austen's novel, and I read it a long time ago, but I really enjoyed the movie ! Now I am so afraid to watch the 2007 series... But I will >.< Anyway, I agree with you ! Frances O'Connor is really nice, she made a great Fanny. SOrry if there's any faults, I'm French =S (but I watch all my movies and series in English ^^)<br /><br />Your blog is awesome ;)Demoiselle-Coquelicotehttp://www.sans-grand-interet.cowblog.frnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023782217987788364.post-38137418420112587192012-10-06T10:03:13.293+01:002012-10-06T10:03:13.293+01:00I loved that scene!!

And I just thought the scene was adorable when Edmund went to Fanny's room to tell her something and completely forgot what he was going to say in the 07 one lol. It was so cute, and I wish it had been in the older version. I liked the way Mary Crawford looked better in the 07 version, but then again, she was much sweeter to Fanny in the older one. So I like them both :) Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02889441492399274225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023782217987788364.post-54378303901314066912012-09-25T18:17:59.657+01:002012-09-25T18:17:59.657+01:00I thought it was brilliant as well!

Great to have a good version of MP which I want to watch! <br />what did you like better in the 07 version? out of interest.<br />But Edmund was so much better, and not so indifferent to Fanny, which is great! <br />I ordered it on amazon and it has just arrived! yay! :D Lizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18061687683030775285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023782217987788364.post-84567565180475042642012-09-25T18:16:18.439+01:002012-09-25T18:16:18.439+01:00I didn't think they were too bad, and I think ...I didn't think they were too bad, and I think a 12 would have been ok.<br /><br />Spoilers technically... but im sure you know the story.<br /> <br />1st scene: It is hinted at in the novel that Sir Thomas buisness in Antigua is slavery, but not explicitly stated. It is more in the film. Fanny finds some drawing done by Tom during his time in Antigua and they show slaves not being treated well. They are only drawings, but a little distressing. They became less distressing at the end of the film as Sir Thomas dropped the slavery and started a new business, which is good :)<br /><br />2nd scene: The plot changes a little at the end. When Tom gets Ill, instead of the whole situation between Crawford and Maria happening where she lives (London/Brigton can't remember which), Maria returns to Mansfield when she hears of Tom illness, and Crawford also turns up with Mary.<br />Fanny walks in on them, in the bedroom. But, all you see is a bit of naked flesh (mostly his skin) and only for a few seconds.<br /><br />So, after what I had heard, I was expecting worse.

There are a few things that I liked better about the 2007 version, but the 1999 version showed Edmund to recognize Fanny so much more. It is definitely a movie that I would like to buy :)The Brunette in the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18267162927283831669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023782217987788364.post-28448525897052924682012-09-25T01:05:00.944+01:002012-09-25T01:05:00.944+01:00I was kinda afraid to watch it before, having hear...I was kinda afraid to watch it before, having heard that they ruined it, but maybe I'll try it.

In the novel, she does!!<br />Lizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18061687683030775285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023782217987788364.post-68396274949614273282012-09-24T11:12:53.327+01:002012-09-24T11:12:53.327+01:00I personally love this version of Mansfield Park. ...I personally love this version of Mansfield Park. While I haven't read the book yet, I prefer this version to the other versions. I've had arguments over this with friends who think it wasn't as accurate to the book as the Billie Piper version. But I guess I will have to read the book for my argument to hold up :) Kathleen S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07747139571708017315noreply@blogger.com
