"LOUISIANA" (1984) Review

Thirty-four years ago, HBO had aired a three-part miniseries about the life and travails of a nineteenth century Southern belle named Virginia Tregan. The miniseries was called "LOUISIANA" and it starred Margot Kidder and Ian Charleson.

Directed 의해 the late Philippe de Broca, "LOUISIANA" was based upon the "Fausse-Riviere" Trilogy, written 의해 Maurice Denuzière, one of the screenwriters. It told the story of Virginia's ruthless devotion to her first husband's Louisiana cotton plantation called Bagatelle . . . and her 사랑 for the plantation's overseer, an Englishman...

"PERSUASION" (1971) Review

This adaptation of Jane Austen’s 1818 novel turned out to be the first of the old Jane Austen 텔레비전 adaptations that the BBC aired during the 1970s and 80s. Produced and directed 의해 Howard Baker, and adapted 의해 Julian Mitchell; this two-part miniseries starred Ann Firbanks and Bryan Marshall.

As many 팬 of Austen’s novel would know, "PERSUASION" told the story of Anne Elliot, the middle daughter of a vain and spendthrift baronet, who finds herself reunited with her former finance, a Naval officer of lesser birth named Frederick Wentworth. Eight years before...

I watched this adaptation of Jane Eyre yesterday and I have to admit that I did have great expectations for this one. However, I was rather disappointed than rewarded for watching it.

As a girl I was a huge Jane Eyre 팬 and I used to read the book 3 또는 4 times per year. The truth is that when I first read it I was too young to actually understand all the important issues, like social class, gender relations,

Last winter, I began watching the BBC's 1975-77 adaptation of Winston Graham's literary series about the life of a British Army officer and American Revolutionary War veteran, following his return to his 집 in Cornwall.

Episodes Five to Eight focused on the series' 초 novel, 1946's "Demelza: A Novel of Cornwall, 1788-1790".

"THE THREE MUSKETEERS" (1948) Review

There are times when I find myself amazed at the longevity of Alexandre Dumas' 1844 novel, "The Three Musketeers". The novel has been in circulation for nearly 170 years. Hollywood and other film industries have been adapting the novel for the 영화 또는 텔레비전 for nearly a century. One adaptation I recently viewed was the Hollywood movie produced and released 의해 MGM Studios in 1948.

We all know the story. A young Frenchman from Gascon sets out for Paris in the early 17th century to 가입하기 the King's Musketeers. During this journey, he meets a beautiful,...

"CALIFORNIA" (1947) Review

I am a history nut. And one of my 가장 좋아하는 historical periods that I 사랑 to study is the Antebellum Era of the United States. One of my 가장 좋아하는 topics from this period is the California Gold Rush. I also 사랑 movies. But despite this love, I have been constantly disappointed 의해 Hollywood's inability to create a first-rate movie about Gold Rush.

I may have to take back my 코멘트 about Hollywood's inability to produce a first-rate movie 또는 텔레비전 production about the Gold Rush. There were at least three that managed to impress me. Unfortunately, the latest film...

"LOST IN AUSTEN" (2008) Review

I must admit that I am usually not a 팬 of novels 또는 any other forms of storytelling that are based upon 또는 continuations of published works of the origin author. This is certainly the case for the numerous works (sans two) based upon Jane Austen's six published novels.

The 2008 miniseries, "LOST IN AUSTEN" is not based upon any particular Austen novel that was not written 의해 the Georgian Era writer. Instead, it is the brainchild of screenwriter Guy Andrews. The latter created this fantasy-comedy, which is an adaptation of Austen's novel, "Pride and Prejudice"...
