Frills and Chills - (still) tweeting - skeeting? - about costumed cinematic or televisional output. 👉
1st look | Billie Eilish filming | The Bell Jar adaptation written and directed by Sarah Polley | Carey Mulligan & Connor Storrie also star | Costumes by Luis Sequeira
Yes, yes there's loads of hamminess and unkempt hair, that usual tied/tight/tired undies nonsese and the ungainly Bridget Jonesian klutziness. Looks fun anyways. #MyBrilliantCareer
How awfully apt. 📺 | Trailer | #MyBrilliantCareer | Here for Roddy Ho (Christopher Chung). Not sure about his cleaned up appearance, though.
Let's see what FOX, BBC & PBS will get going. Promised is 'one of the splashiest U.S.-UK co-productions of recent years', whatever that may turn out to be, and considering the opulence of #JaneCampion's latest adaptation of James' novel. Here for the cast, however. 👉 deadline.com/2026/07/pbs-...
Trust #Vogue to ace in on that culty American Gothic vibe of the upcoming #SenseAndSensibility w/ Daisy Edga Jones & George MacKay... 📸| Szilveszter Mako
Apropos... Posters and first published promo for: Geliebte Schwestern/Beloved Sisters 2015 and Persuasion 2022 respectively... and finally: How come they decided to hide the Colonel/otherwise dashing Herbert Nordrum behind that neither very militarily edged nor historically apt facial flannel?
PPS: 'Being agreeable never did a woman any good'? Who let that tagline pass and how does it fit with anything Austen? (Or lived experience for that matter.) Sounds more like an insensible Emerald Fennell #knockoff?
In other news: What the reluctantly upcoming #SenseAndSensibility lacks in colour (that fashion finally trickled down to where it never needed to be huh?) it will set out to level by sheer amount of freeflowing hair. Groundbreaking. I had an inkling they have not been coy with promo for no reason.
You know it's English of the existential variety when this turns up... 📺 | Netflix | #Legends 2025
#BooksInMovies #Booksky #FilmSky a well-read copy of Gabor von Vaszary's 1955 📖 'Sie' as the random (?) book of choice on a random bidder during the auction in 🎥 #WimWenders' | 1977 🎦 'Der amerikanische Freund' / 'The American Friend'
Extra Top-up für den konsternierten Vogel Pfau mit abgepaartem Spar-Federkleid... wohlmöglich regulär ortsständig in #RensowManor und im übertragenen Sinne Held in: 🎥 | #Vergehen 🦚 von Regisseurin Sandra Kaudelka
"Ist da wer?" Heute was fürs Indie-Herze: Trailer | 🎥 | #Vergehen 🦚 von Regisseurin Sandra Kaudelka - dreht nun die Festival Runden. 👉 ▶️: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3o__...
#BooksInMovies #Booksky #FilmSky Sensible choice: Michael Graham's 'Soil and Sense' 1941 📑 in #TheArchers'/ Powell & Pressburger's 1944 🎦 #ACanterburyTale
Kaykay, too drastic? Here, have Jacob Basil Anderson instead. 🎥 | #Timestalker | 2024 👉 www.youtube.com/watch?v=0oGA...
The... red bird (angry much?) in: Alice Lowe's 🎥 | #Timestalker - which was a riot and a laugh and a howling cry and I'm so glad it got made (aka got the ruddy funding greenlights) and now Imma go and upcycle the fan for a birdcage.
👀 - xx Time to dash some hopes: Here are 1st visuals for the upcoming 📺 #ViennaGame | TV series on the congress held in said city in 1814/15 - not that you'd be able to divine it from the imgs. Cleverer minds enlighten me: Did all that early 00s Euro-trash ever sell all that well to go for more?
📺 | HBO | #AKnightOfTheSevenKingdoms - or nine - really is a deadnice offer of expiation. As well as a good case in point of short fiction usually being that type of printed fiction to better lend itself to screen adaptations. Moreover actually finalized fiction. 👈🌿🏇
Finally, proof of life. Some chronic visual clichées spotted - and a touch of tone and style of #TheFavourite. For enticement? But: A not-amused-to-flabberghasted Richard E. Grant in cakey makeup and a fully bottomed wig? Will take any day! #SavageHouse | Trailer | Poster | Out from June on 🐖
Unusually agreeable #Oscars there while I was sleeping... Congrats to Kate Hawley.
Not enamored (yet again) with #BFI 's Bluray conversion of Terence Davies' 'The House Of Mirth'... #PhysicalMedia #FilmSky #Moviesky (Left: bluray, right: DVD)
Actually intrigued what a new Russian version would have to say. Seeing the first released poster and glossy pictures however has me afraid its going to be screamed and shouted down the screen. #WarAndPeace #Войнаимир
Also in etwa alles, was neben Arte und - weniger oft - 3SAT an linearen Öffis noch konsumierbar war. Und die unendlichen Regionalunteruntersparten? Hatten kein Sparpotential? #ZDF komplett? Frag ja nur. Wo gibts dann in Zukunft eigentlich Bob Ross gegen die Schlafstörung?
Perspectives in Autumn De Wilde's 2020 #Emma. | DoP: Christopher Blauvelt: Left: Ms. Bates, spinster Right: Mr. Knightley, Esq.
? ... ! Left: Cute meme. Impressive cat. Dreamy girl. Right: Girl with a Cat (Девушка с кошкой) | Ivan Kramskoy | Oil on Canvas | 1882
Well. Here it is. Thoughts? 📺 | Netflix | #PrideAndPrejudice teaser. Rather handsy. No flex though.
👀 🎥 | New-to-me bts look at #DamianLewis & #JoshOConnor filming #JackOfSpades in Glasgow last autumn. 1880s 'gothic mystery' written and directed by Joel Coen who usually knows his airs and graces, so we won't be scared off by that shoddy wig'n'hat combo yet.
'Monster' #SquirrelContent coming up: wo 'Schützlichest' nah bei 'scheuszlichest' ist. So gesehen in der deutschen 1563er Übersetzung des 'hochgeleerten D. Cuonrat Geßner's Thierbuoch' - publiziert NACH André Thevet's 1558 gedrucktem Bericht aus Brasilien. 👉 gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/b...
*rubshands* Yet something new and potentially exciting from the #Berlinale2026 🎦 | "The Education of Jane Cumming" with #FionaShaw, who, in 2026, seems to be firmly stuck in #Regency -land.
