Even in the book I always had this die hard hope that her and Mr. Crawford would end up together. Ugh, I just ship them so hard that when I saw the scene of her calling off the engagement she probably shattered my heart more than his. ;___;
Ok, imho I like to believe that Fanny and Henry's relationship would've worked out (in THIS adaption). Henry seems to be accepting of everything in Fanny, and you can see that they share an intimate acquaintance in Portsmouth scenes. Fanny definitely brings out the good in Henry, and I can't imagine Henry kissing Maria the way he does with Fanny. He definitely seems to be devoted to Fanny here. I like to believe things would've worked, but I'm being really optimistic about it.
I've always disliked this adaptation since i've always liked the scene at the end of this clip better than the one with edmund, although i don;t like henry, which is why i don't want to like it. but that line, "Is that THE yes, that I've heard a thousand times in my heart but not from you" is absolutely adorable.
@bresiesoftroy the only thing i dont like is that the director didn't look up customs and manners of this time. They didn't kiss b4 marriage and rarely wore their hair down.
@GegoStuff I think this is very true to the book, the line where Fanny says "the very changefulness is what frightens me." captures it well. He is a chameleon. He is truly wanting to be good when it profits him. So he succeeds for awhile.
I must say though, this movie makes me want to pick Henry over Edmund. It just seems that Henry is much more genuine in this movie and much more willing to change because he has found someone who he's willing to change for. Because later on *spoiler alert* when he ends up getting it on with Maria, it just seems like he did it to spite Fanny, because he was angry with her.... or maybe he's just really good at pretending to love Fanny in this movie. The 2007 version shows my vision of Henry.
@marinita333 I think that he wasn't necessarily in love with Fanny. He was more infatuated with her. She is probably one of the few beautiful women who have denied him and, like any player, he is intrigued by that. It seems as if he's in love with her but he more just wants to conquer a challenge. Anyway, that's my take on it. I've dated LOTS of Henry's. But I married an Edmund... :) Well...I like to think of him more as a Mr. Knightly. Which is better anyway :)
My reaction to the final scene where she said yes was beyond shocked. I was thinking, "WHEN THE FUCK DID THAT HAPPEN IN THE BOOK?!" But all is good. It was only a dream.
Fanny in the original did not said yes. On the contrary, she stuck to her principles and Henry want to marry her when he went to london and seduced Mariah in game.
In this movie, Fanny was like a weak-willed girl! Henry seduced Mariah because Fanny dropped him! These are very important defferent points.
Oh thank god! Finally! I was losing my mind thinking she would be such a fool as to say no and to go on with her romantic high-minded notions. She's a worse snob than the landed gentry she grew up among.
You know what? Even Jane Austen said it herself in the book: Fanny would've changed Henry so much if they would've married :/ She should've added that twist in the book.
Henry is following her everywhere and playing a silent truthfull friend's part. On one hand, it is lovely, on the other - both funny and irritating ;)
I'll never know if Henry really loved Fanny or if he just loved the idea of Fanny. He seems to light up when he's around her but then again, i just don't know. Does he love her or is he in love with her? Ergh! I hate not knowing. Unsolved mystery.
Honestly, the charm and wanting eyes and sweetness of Henry aside, I can't seem to feel 100% sorry for the man. He knows she's in love with someone else, he confronted her about being in love with someone else, she downright SAID she was in love with someone else. It shouldn't surprise him so terribly that Fanny wouldn't want to go through with a marriage she agreed to after finding out the man that she's been in love with since 11 is marrying someone else...
What all yuh saying bout Henry in that he is "so charming" please as Fanny stated earlier he is more interested in being loved than loving. Fanny was just a challenge that he had to take up but it ended up back firing on him.
Henry, have you ever heard of a little something called "rebound"? Now, maybe that's something that comes a bit after your time, but, let's just say, Fanny had heard from Edmund and was feeling rather down....let's leave it that. Sound good? Yeah..
oh henry, if only you waited a little longer. fanny was almost yours. even jane austin admitted that in one of her letters. i really like henry, i wish he was the one.
awwwh it was a dream~ >.< that was mean XP I don't think Henry deserves her :^ any person who lets something stand in the way of being with the person you know is TRULY beautiful because of something so superficial, victorian family obligation or no, and was blind to that which was before their eyes a jewel, only to have eyes opened by folly and other evils does not DESERVE the gem any longer.
OMG I love this part from here to infinity <3333 I'm sorry too, give me Henry forget 'Edmund' <3 . <3 lol And yes, I know he's no good technically, but doesn't he just SEEM so right ? *siiigh*
I hate that they put this in the movie, it makes fanny seem evil for jilting him. Now I understand if he goes off to Mariah, why shouldn't he after what she did? Sheesh this is so different from the book.
After watching this movie countless times, I still get butterflies when Henry says, "Is that a yes? Is that the yes that I have heard a thousand times in my heart but not from you?" I AM IN LOVE WITH HENRY CRAWFORD! Why does he have to be such a douche bag in the end?!
when I first watched this, I actually thought this was the ending. I hadn't read the book (which is so unlike this version) but I thought she was supposed to end up w/ crawford. Edmund seems too...lame (as in disabled) in spirit. He lacks a certain internal fortitude that I think a "hero" should possess.
lol, the mom " just remember fanny, i married for love", i dont know if it was like a warning or not, but if it was then maybe she should have kept her legs close more during her married life and maybe they wouldn't live so bad. xD
@ClaiomSolis It could be that the husband forced it onto her since women dont seem to have a say back in those days. So its not really her fault.Just my opinion here.
@angela94 I don't doubt that in those days women's opinions were leached/deemed irrelevant but if u listen to Fanny's mom's tone when she exchanged words with Henry, u could hear that she's a well spoken person, also look at her other 2 sisters, both married into well to do families which meant they came from a pretty 'decent' family (having opportunities 4 education) themselves.
plus peeps have this silly ideology that luv will take care of the ones in luv...can luv pay rent/buy food?
In the book, Austen makes it clear that Mr. Crawford had a chance. She goes so far as to say that Henry and Mary could have livened up the lives of Edmund and Fanny. The book was better by showing that Fanny was beginning to think favorably about Henry after this visit (the reference to Jane Austen's own acceptance, then refusal, of one man marred the story) - had Henry been faithful without a guarantee, he might have won her.
I feel as if Edmund was too weak in character and I don't understand why Fanny still loved him despite his inability to profess his love for her or even realize it. At least Henry went out of his way to propose to her despite knowing her background and continued to pursue for her love. As for the flaws, who doesn't have flaws. I fail to understand Fanny. I don't know. Edmund is too weak of a man.
To be honest, I would've actually been pretty happy if the movie just ended there and then after she 'accepted' his proposal. I know she's supposed to end up with Edmund in the real story, but that could've been an okay alternative ending :) It's just that he seems so nice right now...
i have to say that in the book i could not see why fanny would say no to mr. crawford. after all he would provide her with comfort in life, however, after seeing the movie it made me really go against her ever marrying him partially because of the evil way in which he responds to her rejection in the movie and also because you can see so much more of what fanny is feeling in the movie. austen writes her as such an introverted character that it is hard to see inside her thoughts in the book
this movie makes you want fanny to marry mr. crowford whereas in the book you can't do anything but dispise him and want her to end up with edmund -.-
I don't really like how Fanny cries all the time, in other Austen novels the female characters are stronger, they experience a loss or heartache but they don't sit around and sob.
whats with henry crawford... does he truely like/love fanny in the only way he knows how, or is he just fascinated by her cos she's not falling so easily for him as all the other ladies in his life have?
Oof, the mother.. "I married for love"... stupid, headstrong girl. When times were like that she should have accepted. A handsome rich man with bad nature is better than having to think what to eat...
awww; even though i know i shouldnt like henry; i have to admit the scene between him and fanny where she accepts his proposal is so cute; hes so happy..! i almost forget he's mr.evil!!!
why the heck does henry crawford who is a self promoting sort of person go after fanny who has not background or fortune worth pursuing...did i miss something?
No one realizes Fanny's feelings for Edmund! She succeeded in keeping them hidden from everyone, even Edmund himself. Henry is not the sort of person to admit or notice a rival. Geez. >:(

And this is where I like to stop watching this movie. Edward and Mary get married and live out a shallow marriage; Fanny and Henry get married; and Henry never has the affair with Maria. Happy ending! This movie's characters are very different from the book's though. For one, I would have never visioned Henry to be as good-looking and well-meaning as Alessandro Nivola made him. In this movie, they should definitely get married.
I prefer this version in all ways except Fanny's acceptance of Henry and then change of heart. It gives him reason to behave badly, whereas if she had begun to consider him, as she did in the book, his failing her reveals his unworthiness. Had he been able to wait for her, it might have been the first step toward a much happier life.
If Henry is passionate and controlled by emotions, Edmund is poised and controlled by his deepest feelings. No wonder, a girl so constant, plain(not pejoratively though) and so untouched by the world's revels, like Fanny would suit only perfectly an Edmund. I am of course speaking in the context of the book because the movie's Fanny might just as well suit a Henry, to a small extent, at the very least.
@welcomeback444 oh absolutely and maybe Henry loved her even more passionately than Edmund would ever do all his life but here lies the fault. He's a Don Juan, able to love promptly and wholeheartedly, whose love brights so fiercely but which vanishes as quickly as it was lit. He might have been deeply in love of fanny for a year or two of marriage but would be bored by a too constant life because he is by nature unstable.
Oh yeah surrrrre Bub.......That didn't exactly stop him from doing what happens next right? (I'm trying not to spoil anything so I apologize if I seem completely obtuse)
This movie never fails to speak to me no matter how many times I see it. Fanny sees him so clearly and I love it so. I second that telling line by Mrs. Price "I married for love..." When I first heard that line I felt it in my chest too, goodness! So well made!
In response to my comment below- OH MY FUCKING JESUS CHRIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's fucking true!!!!!!! No no no no no no no no!!!!!!!!!! Wrong!! So wrong!! Billie piper is modern!! She is in DOCTOR WHO, for fuck's sake. She can't be fanny price any more that Johnny depp can be mr. Darcy!!! It's so fucking wrong!!! On the other hand, I haven't seen that version yet so I reserve my opinion. Lol
Y'know, considering the way they portrayed Henry in this version, they should have just ended the movie right after that kiss.........

That's silly, how can Henry so readily accept her when he knows her heart is full of someone else?!

this movie makes you want fanny to marry mr. crowford whereas in the book you can't do anything but dispise him and want her to end up with edmund -.-

I don't really like how Fanny cries all the time, in other Austen novels the female characters are stronger, they experience a loss or heartache but they don't sit around and sob.

@bpatable It is sort of off putting. But if you think about it, no other Jane Austen heroine was quite so mistreated or neglected as Fanny Price.

No one realizes Fanny's feelings for Edmund! She succeeded in keeping them hidden from everyone, even Edmund himself. Henry is not the sort of person to admit or notice a rival. Geez. >:(

And this is where I like to stop watching this movie. Edward and Mary get married and live out a shallow marriage; Fanny and Henry get married; and Henry never has the affair with Maria. Happy ending! This movie's characters are very different from the book's though. For one, I would have never visioned Henry to be as good-looking and well-meaning as Alessandro Nivola made him. In this movie, they should definitely get married.

@SgtPlmFry You mean EDMUND not EDWARD, right? Edward is character in "Sense and Sensibility" not "Mansfield Park".

I prefer this version in all ways except Fanny's acceptance of Henry and then change of heart. It gives him reason to behave badly, whereas if she had begun to consider him, as she did in the book, his failing her reveals his unworthiness. Had he been able to wait for her, it might have been the first step toward a much happier life.

I have to keep reminding myself that Henry is like a Wickham or a Willoughby but it is so hard with how well he's playing the good guy atm.

If Henry is passionate and controlled by emotions, Edmund is poised and controlled by his deepest feelings. No wonder, a girl so constant, plain(not pejoratively though) and so untouched by the world's revels, like Fanny would suit only perfectly an Edmund. I am of course speaking in the context of the book because the movie's Fanny might just as well suit a Henry, to a small extent, at the very least.

Do you think Crawford really and truly loved fanny, even if only at one point?
welcomeback444 1 year ago
@welcomeback444 oh absolutely and maybe Henry loved her even more passionately than Edmund would ever do all his life but here lies the fault. He's a Don Juan, able to love promptly and wholeheartedly, whose love brights so fiercely but which vanishes as quickly as it was lit. He might have been deeply in love of fanny for a year or two of marriage but would be bored by a too constant life because he is by nature unstable.

This movie never fails to speak to me no matter how many times I see it. Fanny sees him so clearly and I love it so. I second that telling line by Mrs. Price "I married for love..." When I first heard that line I felt it in my chest too, goodness! So well made!

"Just remember Fanny... I married for love."
SUCH a poignant moment, I felt my chest lurch.
And oh yes, I think Crawford must be very in love with Fanny, but he is supremely flawed and just not good enough for Miss Price.

She is in DOCTOR WHO, for fuck's sake. She can't be fanny price any more that Johnny depp can be mr. Darcy!!! It's so fucking wrong!!! On the other hand, I haven't seen that version yet so I reserve my opinion. Lol
