this blog is like a box of chocolates. I read a lot. I want tin can roses. I drink too much Lady Grey. I recite film lines to myself when I feel sad. I eat a lot of apple strudel. and this is my masterlist.

And then the music you’ll recognise as being the music that we first hear when we enter Longbourn at the very, very beginning of the film….also by Dario, the composer,who composed it before we started filming.

The scene where Brandon hears his sister sing in the restaurant was shot in real time. James Badge Dale and Michael Fassbender had never heard Carey Mulligan sing before so their reactions were real. The scene was shot at 3 a.m in the morning with cameras focused on all 3 performers at the same time. X.

What a shame, for I dearly love to laugh.
A family trait, I think.
“I didn’t understand. After all that teasing, Ruth would decide that Tommy was the boy she liked most of all. They say girls are always mean to the boys they like, so maybe Ruth had liked him all along. Maybe I should have teased him too.”
An Education (2009) by Lone Scherfig, starring Carey Mulligan, Peter Sarsgaard and Alfred Molina.
Oh, my goodness! Everyone behave naturally!
