Thanks for pointing that out. <br /><br />Mr. Bennett has some crackling lines in Lost in Austen (you may remember the actor from Notting Hill - the failed City banker friend) He really suffers in that household :-)J Ramanandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03700969855424872769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523224.post-35137306723908596012010-08-10T00:18:52.695+05:302010-08-10T00:18:52.695+05:30Aisha is definitely not India's first Austen a...Aisha is definitely not India's first Austen adaptation. Kandukondain Kandukondain (sp?) was adapted from Sense and Sensibility.<br /><br />I read P&P a few years back, and the character that stuck with me most was Mr. Bennett. I feel he gets short shrift because men never read (or admit to reading) the book :)Ajayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04768897856311669412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523224.post-25382909844973585522010-08-09T11:23:15.565+05:302010-08-09T11:23:15.565+05:30i've never been a Jane Austen fan, but what th...i've never been a Jane Austen fan, but what the last you mentions did to her work is beyond repair.

I might watch a zombification of Sholay, with say, Dharmendra turning out to be more than just a connoisseur of canine blood.J Ramanandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03700969855424872769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523224.post-59781881947998042382010-08-08T23:43:02.810+05:302010-08-08T23:43:02.810+05:30Where is the footnote referenced from?Where is the footnote referenced from?Salilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11766706291407000110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523224.post-49056587122842409352010-08-08T20:24:28.757+05:302010-08-08T20:24:28.757+05:30The only Austen work I've read is P&P&...The only Austen work I've read is P&P&Z, and that is awfully one-note as (I think) you're saying. But I think a part of me is just really happy that such a book exists. S&S&SM on the other hand, seems to be taking the joke too far.Kunalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16145197090585110100noreply@blogger.com
