COMMENTARY

more costumey cinema

Some random costumey film links and news:

  • Hundreds of behind the scenes photos from the upcoming Vanity Fair
  • Andrew Davies (writer of Pride & Prejudice among many other really good costume adaptations) is writing the script for a new version of Brideshead Revisited, set to star Paul Bettany, Jennifer Connelly and Jude Law (yum)
  • Keira Knightley is set to star in a new version of Pride & Prejudice; not too sure how I feel about this… can you really improve on the Colin Firth/Jennifer Ehle 1995 version?
  • Shekhar Kapur has plans to make a sequel to his much-debated (among costumers and historians) film Elizabeth; currently titled Golden Age and so far starring Cate Blanchett as Elizabeth again. Get ready for the listserv debates!
