But in your case, it may be the case that you both don't care for her work.<BR/><BR/>But if I were going to recommend one to start out, I'd say either <I>Mansfield Park</I> (the version that aired recently on PBS Masterpiece) or the A&E version of <I>Pride & Prejudice</I> which is really, really, really long.Big Doofus (Roger)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05999458545862082302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3823507989753857730.post-82459380554034841422008-02-05T17:56:00.000-05:002008-02-05T17:56:00.000-05:00If Jane was alive to see that picture she'd wish s...If Jane was alive to see that picture she'd wish she was dead!Wanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03314255954671021901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3823507989753857730.post-80407944502108944372008-02-05T17:40:00.000-05:002008-02-05T17:40:00.000-05:00Jane Austin?

I think I bought it for Miss Sniz a few years ago for Christmas. So, you see how I work here? I buy her Jane Austen stuff and then when she's watching it, I can act like I'm all worked up about not being able to watch sports or monster trucks or competitive eating contests, but deep down inside I'd rather be watching her movie. Oh, and thanks for commenting.<BR/><BR/><B>scott</B> - At some point, one of her undiscovered works will be made into a movie staring one of those steroid induced gals from professional wrestling and Stone Cold Steve Austin who will substitute an "e" for the "i" in his last name to pay tribute. Or, maybe not.<BR/><BR/><B>jan</B> - You're right. They watch it because it's good and your boys have good taste.<BR/><BR/><B>uvulapie</B> - Our girls are big fans of the Green gal. I get her confused with someone else when the movie version is on and keep expecting her to have a fear of eggs and ham.Big Doofus (Roger)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05999458545862082302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3823507989753857730.post-31123436619460724602008-02-05T07:40:00.000-05:002008-02-05T07:40:00.000-05:00Austin's got NUTHIN' on Anne of Green Gables.
