Confession # 2: I am a sucker for period films

I think the title of this section basically gives it all away. I love period films (and of course the novels that came before them. Nevertheless, i assume that most people would rather watch the movie than read the book, or at least watch the movie first before reading the book). Their is something about the dresses, the formal language, and the sappy love stories that get me EVERY SINGLE TIME! I don't know why I am this way. I mean, I'm Hispanic. My parents don't even know who Jane Austen is. Gabriel Maria Marquez? Of course! He's Colombian! Charlotte Brontë...not so much. I mean, she's British. So, anyway, I am convinced I am adopted (lol).
But really, period films are amazing, and if you get the time, I hope you can enjoy some of these.


Let us begin with Jane Austen...









Charlotte and Emily Brontë:



Elizabeth Gaskell






L.M. Montgomery:


Shakespeare:


Other Random Period Films...





So, here are some of my favorite. I am sure i will think of more and will have to update this post several times :)

Until next time xoxoxoxoxox
