Tale of Two Cities Part 1 of 11

[pianomansydney]

I'm travelling with Miriam Margolyes in the theatre piece "Dicken's Women", playing piano. It has revived my appetite for Dickens and his brilliance, and I've started reading "Dombey and Son"!

I fucking hate this book. BUT OMG IT'S A CLASSIC IT'S SO GREAT AND WONDERFUL YOU OUGHT TO LOVE GOOD OLD FASHIONED DRY ASS LITERATURE. Shut the fuck up. I dare the people that call this a wonderful amazing classic to try and read Twilight. OH BUT IT'S NOT A CLASSIC. Don't be a lazy ass -.-' Willingly torture yourself the way you're telling me to.

[SicariusBarritus]

@Lyndseybearrr The book is a classic. Read it. Don't be a lazy ass.

[LaeBehleFere]

@SicariusBarritus Dickens can be impossible to understand, so I don't think it'd be necessarily LAZY to not read it. To not attempt is lazy. But I agree; I loved the book. (:

[xXDMXxjake]

@SicariusBarritus fuckoff i am in the same fucking situation answer us correctly. xD

A glimpse at what the USA is becoming: a handful of rich and the rest poor. History repeats itself.

[drskeletone]

that's my favorite novel.....thanks Charles Dickens

[Glinkaism1]

The original title was "The Sale of Two Tities." When it was changed to "The Tale of Two Cities," it became a hit.

[MrSibghat]

Great Bro,This really helps me with my literature :)

[mmmmmm24180113]

[armorhide406]

what year was this movie made

[MyPaperBleedsInk]

Ahhhh, we saw this version in my English class in high school. Good book, good movie.

[ThymeBottle]

That appears to be Barry Morse (Gerard from The Fugitive) playing the despicable Marquis. Peter Cushing as the old doctor; Kenneth More as Mr. Lorry; Alice Krige as Lucy; Billie Whitelaw as Madame DeFarge--familiar faces--a splendid cast. But, who played Miss Pross? I remember seeing this version years ago. Thank you so much for posting it.

[hyphymovment510]

is he sniffing cocain??

[luckieO7]

@hyphymovment510 snuff is more likely lol

[padfootrocksmysocks]

@hyphymovment510 actually i believe it's snuff tobacco.

[Ereldor]

@hyphymovment510 It's actually something called snuff; it's the third way to take tobacco, apart from a pipe or cigarettes. It was said to clear out your nostrils, but this way of taking tobacco died out somewhere in the 19th Century...

[AliFang]

@hyphymovment510 Its snuff

[reldditmot]

@hyphymovment510 Snuff..

[n0iwont]

@hyphymovment510 ....whatever he is sniffing, he is not a gentleman. The way he puts it straight into his nostrils was considerd ill mannered!

[up4itgal]

@hyphymovment510 No that was something called 'snuff' that the rich were privy to sniffing during the 16th-18th centuries. It is actually powdered tobacco, the rich thought smoking a pipe to be vulgar so they just sniffed up the nose instead!

[charllotte36]

we are watching this in school :3

[GuyaneseGangstar]

105 north tower ? it is it the place where he was held prisoner?

[wildcats742]

what year was this movie made in?

[mrhungmai]

thank for posting the movie. I need to watch the movie to understand the book "A Tale of two cities" that I'm reading in class :) LOL

[zeexohxee]

@mrhungmai Just use Sparknotes. Not only does that website provide a summary of each chapter, but it also goes into detail about the book's theme and symbolism.

[jcbby]

[LetFreedomRing]
