“I think that the film Clueless was very deep. I think it was deep in the way that it was very light. I think lightness has to come from a very deep place if it’s true lightness.” —

Alicia Silverstone (via alifethatisstacybeth)

What are your favorite films?

Hi Janeites! This isn’t Austen related but I’m doing the 365 Film Challenge and need some movie suggestions from my followers, who obviously have great taste. ;) Preferably not Austen adaptations since I think I’ve seen most? But if you think I haven’t, feel free to list it! It can seriously be ANYTHING. I love ALL the genres. I just have to watch movies I’ve never seen before.

What are some of your favorite movies?

Jane Austen's semicolons were not her own → guardian.co.uk

“Does it make her less of a genius?” said Professor Kathryn Sutherland of the English language and literature faculty at Oxford University.

“I don’t think so,” she said, answering her own question. “Indeed I think it makes her more interesting, and a much more modern and innovative writer than had been thought.

“In particular, her use of dashes to heighten the emotional impact of what she is writing is striking: you have to wait for Virginia Woolf to see anything comparable.”

Or Emily Dickinson! This hurts my heart. I’d love to see editions of her novels in their original form.
