@deanduncan63Saw #Austenland. Two films, battling: the 1st is ardent but prudent, decorous & self-empowering. A bit dull-ish …
… The 2nd film is more or less Rabelaisian, not too fit for polite company. #1 wins. Is their heart, is there more heart in #2? …
… As it were?
#Austenland. What are these 3 (& ½) Mormon ladies up to? Is this a tale of Modesty & the For the Strength of Youth handbook …
… battling against the Natural Man? Is this not that tale, but the actual battle itself? Is it Hale’s discreet Austen-homage …
… vying against Meyer’s implicit & Hess’s out-&-out body/bawdy-ness?
Or is #Austenland the sound of 1/2/3/& a ½ Mormon women taking arms against a sea o’ patriarchal/ideological …
… Church Education Systemic impositions on the subject of sex? Garbled, even partly bungled …
… but at least they’re discussing it! Important stuff, beneath the fluff.
#Austenland. Jennifer Coolidge deserves some kind of medal for actor-bravery. Or maybe she’s just crazy. Amazing, though!
