Period Movies Box - Sense and Sensibility (1995) - Reviewed

Sense and Sensibility (1995)
My Overall Rating - 7.5/10
Sense & Sensibility - Period Movies Box


This is one movie that I liked and loved, very sincerely! The movie stars Emma Thompson (Elinor Dashwood),Kate Winslet (Marianne Dashwood), Hugh Grant (Edward Ferrars), Allan Rickman, Gemma Jones and others.

The period piece is almost as charming as Jane Austen's novel. The best part according to me, it maintains originality and the sets, the costumes and characters are very genuine. Again, I must compliment the casting director(who ever that was).

There's no point writing the story of Sense and Sensibility here, we know it of course. Just a little thing to convey, watch it, devote your evening to this extremely well crafted period movie, with excellent performances by stage-trained artists and a witty and substantial screenplay, believe me you'll not be disappointed. ENJOY!

Don't forget to write to me!

Period Movies Box - The Young Victoria (2009) - Reviewed

The Young Victoria (2009)
My Overall Rating - 7.5/10
The Young Victoria - Period Movies Box
My Saturday evening was delightful and you know why. I just finished watching The Young Victoria, a movie by Jean Marc Vallee. The movie is about the early years of Queen Victoria or should I rather say HER MAJESTY!

The movie stars Emily Blunt (as Queen Victoria), Rupert Friend (as Prince Albert), Paul Bettany, Miranda Richardson, Jim Broadbent and others. I am impressed, definitely. This is what you can tag as comparatively a new cast with Blunt in the lead and the ensemble has worked very well.

The movie is very good, especially the furniture (and why not, it was the Victorian Era after all!). The performance of the young Victoria (Blunt) is controlled and decent. Also, Rupert Friend is very good, not overshadowed at all. And Paul Bettany is very charming (only second to Friend!)

Doesn't matter whether you're a regency era fan or a casual movie watcher, you'll like the movie I'm sure! Its a very well made period movie, just what you need to make a happy watching. So, I guess you might as decide upon watching it, this weekend and tell me about it!

Period Movies Box - A Dangerous Method - Upcoming Movie

A Dangerous Method 
Release Date - 23 November

I have been waiting for its trailer for a long time now. A Dangerous Method is based on the relationship between Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud, two of the best psychiatrists of their time, set on the eve of the World War I. The movie has a fine star cast which I think would sufficiently good to pull off the plot nicely. It stars Keira Knightley, Michael Fassbander and Viggo Mortenson in the lead roles.

The plot line of the movie is,"A look at how the intense relationship between Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud gives birth to psychoanalysis.", as is written on IMDb.



I think it would be a good one looking at the storyline and the cast of the movie. Also, the screen play has been written by Christopher Hampton, an Academy Award winner. So, to sum up, I think it would be a great period movie to watch!

As Viggo Mortenson says, "I have simply opened the door. Its for a young man like yourself to walk through it."
