Pride and Prejudice

[pozorvlak]

I've just been watching the film of Pride and Prejudice (the one with Kiera thrice-Knightley as Lizzie), and had rather a shock when I realised that Mr Bingley was being played by someone I went to school with! I think he may even have been in my English class when I read the book for GCSE...

It's surprisingly weird watching him on screen - partly not having seen him for years, but mostly seeing someone I know in an actual film. Not at all like watching a friend on stage.

Anyway, he's a nice chap, so it's good to see he's doing well...

Wait, nobody mentioned theatre. Where did I get that from.

Sorry.

No, I mentioned theatre in my original post, saying that seeing a friend on screen is nothing like seeing one on stage.

And hello! Sorry about LJ's stupid "non-LJers/OpenIDers must post anonymously" setup.

It would be nice if it loaded my avatar image from MyOpenID, but that seems to be version 2.0.

OpenID is actually a great solution to comment permissions, read Simon Willison's post on social whitelisting.
