Northanger Abbey - Part 7

[co2015fc]

I want a Mr. Tillney

[FaithEndurith]

Hate the parts not true to the original Austen.

[SelenaMulan]

Love Tilney in the Fantasy; I'm blushing just thinking about that happening in REAL life!! Darnit; why does Mrs. Allen have to ruin it!! Thats how u ask for her hand in marriage? How UNromantic!! GOD how fake Miss Thorpe is!! BTW; when I say I'm like Catherine; Im like her when I was younger; still got some of those characteristics; but not all!!

[jo536]

Loving the Thorpe-hate!

[anna12910]

3:30 why can the term "love" be that appreciated nowadays?

[globalman]

Aren't females silly and foolish! Lol

[BastBlue]

Watched this in class ... Damn sooo boring

[TokioDanyelleHotel]

@BastBlue So boring you felt the need to search for it on YouTube and comment on just how boring you found it....? Wow, an interesting, fun-filled life you have there.

[sno0323]

Never trifle with a mans affections my big toe!

[34RiverStone]

"I...think it is a good thing too." :I'm so PLEEEEASED to hear you say that." ewww he's so creepy! his eyes are popping out of his head!!! O.O

[LeBexstar]

4:49 *sudden realisation* Oohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... *facepalm* Silly Catherine... XD

[BoxyTheSpaceDog]

It's corset that gives that impression,lol.I as member of male population don't really care either way,she's a cutie.Carey Mulligan <3

[sult78]

lol.. what i just wanna say is already said !

she needs to keep an eye on her titties they are nearly on display !..lmao

[threemogstwodogs]

Emily Bronte was born in 1818 and published Wuthering Heights in 1847 . Jane Austen was born in 1775 and died in 1817 . Northanger Abbey was published in 1818 , after her death .. So yes the characters should not be talking about Wuthering Heights...and the person who said they studied English Lit and Bronte was before Austen maybe needs to resit their exam ;-) The manners , modes of dress and politics of the day had changed immeasurably by the time the Brontes came along as the Industrial Revo

[sybylo]

Isabelle Thorpe= vicious version of Lydia Benett

[Letasiful]

@Nyphadoramooney

THANK YOU!! Argh it was bugging me for ages I couldn't remember who he ressembled it's a leprechaun that's it!

[philippars1]

@kmarty290 RIGHT ON!

[LivingintheShire]

His hat is very tall!

[Nymphadoramoony]

Thorpe looks like a leprechaun to me does anyone else think that?

[tangerineskyline]

@Nymphadoramoony - in full agreement with u! hahaha!

[LadyXMidnight1]

What a creeeeper!

[CastJosephine]

LOL I don't blame her for her rather...ehem...carnal thoughts. I read "The Monk" and it truly is one of the most sexual, dirtiest books I've read.

[purple1316]

John Thorpe is.....Not attractive and he's kinda creepy...

[elocin22791]

John Thorpe- Worst proposer of marriage ever.

[BexMatthies]

@elocin22791 Can't be worse than Mr. Collins!

[AsHmAnRiDeOrDiEcHiC]

Ewwww...I don't like John Thorpe.

[imova]

mr. thorpe reminds me of a hobbit

[bre696]

@imova Mr. Thorpe reminds me of an asshole.

[Sing4God87]

@imova you mean Mr. Morland?.

[BOOKfreak526]

God she is really hormonal isn't she?

[nsb5Q322]

WOW :"< her dream was, ummm, quite interesting *blushes deeply*

[arsah17]

@dilucalum89: I studied in English tht bronte was born before Austen! She was way older thn Austen! She wasn't born in 1790's or 1780's.

[EnvyMadhouse]

I love Henry!!!!!!!! 

[Songsmirth]

She's only there for Catherine's sake but her breasts are about to fall out of her dress! I always thought it interesting that these women wouldn't show an ankle(sp) but they breasts are almost leaping out of their dresses! lol Isabella reminds me of Sharlette in Gone with the Wind in some ways. She's supposed to be in mourning for her husband but wants to dance not having loved her husband at all. And Rhett Butler knows it. He gives her an out and she grabs it. All for a good cause. lol

[Songsmirth]

I think it's important that Tilney is older. He can understand Catherine a bit better. Not be so affronted by her silliness and young ego. Plus he and his sister are more mature having no real father. Sometimes life's injustices produces stronger people and these two sylblings have been through a lot which Catherine has been protected from. Mr. Tilney says as much. / Mr. T certainly has an ego but he doesn't let C speak because he knows she feels nothing for him./ Isabella is such a lier.

[nlhanks]

I want to go on a walk with Mr. Tilney. Ok, fine. I want to marry him....there should be more Mr. Tilney's in the world!

[diluculum89]

They talk about Wuthering Height eventhough its author Emily Bronte was born a year after Jane Austen died. :-S

[justmemai]

I do not like Mr. Thorpe at all

[AlinaTowers]

Yeah, Catherine is so real and refreshing around all the hoity-toity people stuffed up with their rediculous "proper" habits! I like how Mr. Tilney makes fun of it all.

[Andiefunny93]

isabella:''you know my nature, I could never trifle with a man's affections''

Catherine:*slap*!!! :)



[freakybrowneyes7]

Carey mulligan!! just noticed that!

[lijluvr356]

Oh MY! The Famous Bath Scene. She doesn't look too happy to see him. I agree with koppsr, who very aptly says, "she looks more like a frightened mouse than a on-her-way-to-be-seduced-woman­­."

I love how Catherine's brother jerks a little bit when Isabella says "I remember I wore this yellow gown." It rather gives the impression that he remembers otherwise, no?

"And as for dancing, don't even mention it. I'LL mention it at every turn to save YOU the trouble. Oh! Do you think HE'LL dance with me?"

[koppsr]

i always laugh when i see the look in her eyes at 2:43, she looks more like a frightened mouse than a on-her-way-to-be-seduced-woman­^^ but so cute^^ i love this movie so much :) thx for posting it :)

[SongBird4Jesus27]

@koppsr i think henry's looks are funnier

[MrZebraZombie]

John Thorpe in the book pissed me off, John Thorpe in this movie REALLY pissed me off.

[Kaylee1038]

1:44

No, thank YOU Mr. Tilney.

[YESHUAISMERCIFUL]

wow, i've never read a jane austen book with such sexual referance LOL.

[SongBird4Jesus27]

@YESHUAISMERCIFUL its her take on a gothic novel. its taking the mick out of them saying out silly they were.

[Minty210]

I think I need to read Northanger Abbey again because this movie doesn't feel like Jane Austen to me. Some parts do, but some really don't.

[BegumQ]

@Minty210 personally I think this the worst of the austen books. I did not like the book either. I was embarressed for her at the end of the movie and the book.

[deadSIRENS]

@BegumQ I quite liked the book. Granted, it's not Austen's best (if I remember correctly, this was one of the first she's written), but if read as a parody, it is enjoyable.

[mariadelmarcita]

i like those dresses!!!!!! i was born in the wrong century!!!

[AnnaBxox24]

bedCHAMBAH

[xXlauralauXx]

can some one please just punch thorpe already!!!

[spiderheiress]

Am I the only one who thinks those top hats are damn sexy?

[palebluedot]

mr. tilney sounds a bit like alan rickman at times.

it could just be me though.

[r5q5is10]

@palebluedot YES!!!!

i knew he sounded familiar!

[urbanr0cker]

@palebluedot Oh my god, he certainly does!

[fabziepie]

catherine reads some rather interesting books...

and has some rather interesting dreams, too.

[chipmunkkk3]

AAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! Catherine is having wet dreams of Henry!!!! lol

[jammie146]

isabelle looks familiar to me. she looks like the Catherine in pride and prejudice 2005

[fabziepie]

@jammie146 yes, the actress who plays isabella in this, carey mulligan, also played catherine (or kitty) in P&P 2005 :)

[YESHUAISMERCIFUL]

@jammie146 omg she does!!!! that's what i was thinking!

[karyn13house]

I love the actress that plays Isabella, gutted she's playing such a cow though lol

[phantomfever17]

@karyn13house Me too! Carey Mulligan is adorable! Just not so much in this movie. I liked her character better in Pride and Prejudice, even though her part wasn't as big. And I loved her as Sally Sparrow!

[aikenshin]

Is it just me or there's some Jude Law aspect on that Mr. Tilney?

[Ixchellita]

O...kay?? That was weird, I´m sure Jane Austen didn´t write THAT!!!

[ErinSaysHerro]

hahah!! did catherine just have a wet dream? xD

[MoonPhase94]

Lol! she's been having wet dreams all through out this film so far. This was definitly the wettest though...

[consgn2oblivion]

i hate isabelle....

[stoneoffarel]

*mouth drops open*

okay that was NOT in the book

but . . . .

[chefb2you]

@stoneoffarel I know, that is quite too far, don't you think...

[stoneoffarel]

@chefb2you  definitly ! i really doubt that young ladys in the 18 hundrets would rly think that way . . . i dont know :S

[mellaclaudii]

catherine is really a bit silly... i mean, how couldn't she notice Thorpe's intentions ?

[KleiMo1991]

She's really naive. I mean, she's been in the country pretty much all her life and all she does is reading those novels - I can see how she's too innocent to realize.

[LimerickLinz]

Yeah, but he is moving so quickly, that is it understandable that she isn't jumping to that conclusion.

[KatrienWoestad]

i dont like thorpe he give's me the creeps

[guidedashes]

How can Catherine not understand Thorpe's intentions? Is she really so thick?

[AthenaHueber]

Exactly! Thorpe realises Catherine's innocent nature and uses it to his advantage. He's quite the little snake in the grass.

[tabagou]

@ sjaeckh: what do you mean? nowadays ? the U.S.? wow, never been to europe, huh? :]

[sjaeckh]

@tabagou I have been to Europe many times...in a lot of ways it's a more liberal society than here in the U.S. Anatomically correct dolls for the kids, safe sex/condom commercials on television, etc. I prefer some things about Europe, some things about living in the U.S.

[cravilicious]

i can't stand thorpe! he is so creepy and pushy that he makes my skin crawl

[hopefaithloverespect]

same here! lol

[renai0304]

love her fantasies-like the bathtub-lol-thorpe-yuck

[bubblezcookielove]

personally when Isabella said that about my brother some one would have been slapped right across the face.

How rude

[DestinedRevolution]

wow. naiive

[MusicalMaiden92]

"Your brother will still be my only choice"

I love Catherine's face. Its like "Uh.... I doubt that, ho."

[BluffNdice90]

Thorpe reminds me of robert webb off peep show

[davoisakoollord]

yes! ha

[carly4stevenarnold]

@BluffNdice90 yeah the actor who plays thorpe is on casualty now and robert webb hosted a programme to do with movie mistakes the other day. All through it, i thought it was him until after i realised there was something a bit different about him lol

[kmarty290]

what a ho

for having a "heart fourty miles away, she sure has her boobs poppin out of that dress

[MusicalMaiden92]

I was thinking the same thing when I first saw this movie. lol

[RosellaStone]

@kmarty290 no kidding! is she makes a small sharp turn... POP! out they come. lol.

I can't believe these girls who proclaim they love someone and turn around and play like he doesn't even exsist. geez women, come to grips with urselves. lol

[snoofard]

@kmarty290

If you look at paintings and fashion plates of the period the bodice was quite low and "boobs poppin out was acceptable

[kmarty290]

@snoofard well seeing as how i am an art history and fashion major i would know this. however, women in pop culture have every part of thier bodies hanging out- but does that make it- how you say- acceptable?

[snoofard]

@kmarty290 .Ok, look now at the akerman's fashion plates and read literature on this subject ,you will see the gowns were quite low cut and bosom WAS acceptable to show in the evening hours.In France ladies would dampen their gowns & wear in public.You will learn this through your studies as you go along.iI too am a fashion designer,costumer of period correct clothing :)

[kmarty290]

@snoofard what EVERYONE is trying to say, is that even if it was acceptable that doesn't mean that it was not frowned appon. the women who did these kinds of things were considered skanks. someone with thier tits hanging out today would still be ridiculed.

[pmichael73]

Eleanor Tilney is one of the most intelligent women in 19th literature. (Marion Holcombe from The Woman in White takes the prize).

[germangirl4017]

"I could never triffle with a man's affections" my FOOT. Isabella is all kinds of horrid. Shallow and foolish girl!

[dolphinrider22]

my foot rele? haha

[111secret111222333]

Thorpe is hella ugly...

i dont like him at all...

[dorkeymarie]

THORPE IS AN mean lizard! hahha

i love love love tilneyy :]

[chipuraable]

john keeps on creeping...

[tiffers1912]

That bathtub fantasy was hot! lol

[graceylu89]

Thorpe is so obssesive it seems.

[AkiraChan24]

That scene with her fantasy isn't in the DVD! o.o when it skipped right past that part I was a little put-out to be honest XD

[anisete46]

There were no such fantasies in the novel... it would have been contrary to the mores of the time, women were not supposed to have sexual thoughts...

[sjaeckh]

So glad nowadays female sexuality and right to sexual thoughts is more easily understood/accepted! At least in the U.S. anyways...

[melmelmax]

i hate it when they do that! thats like in the lost in austen dvd, it skips the part where she sings downtown! i was sad:(

[AkiraChan24]

OMG I KNOW! I hated that so much! I didn't understand why they cut that out.

[britnicoley]

john thorpe haven't u ever heard one wedding brings on a funeral lol thats what i would have said:)

[sunlitrain]

Tilney seems verbena;

Thorpe, an onion.

[shazzqsong]

Does Thorpe seriously think he has a chance with Catherine or any woman at that?!

[hollywoodartchick]

Well, she is naive and codependent enough to keep caving to his demands for her attention, so I guess he figures that is his key to overcoming her resistance.

[dattebayo1993]

mr thorpe is coming on a bit too strong!

[Sucker4romance2]

very saucy fantasy i must say my goodness!

[PetiteMouse]

Ew. Isabella was a character created to be disliked.

[jampcat9]

Thorpe makes me want to puke

[marinoxx93]

I know ! What a creep!

[bodyanti]

"my hair was up in braids"

lol idiot

[MsKittyTHEcat]

Isabella is a jerk. Catherine is nice and so is Henry.

[jj22etc]

Oh gosh I love the way he says thank you to her.

[leiasos]

amen. i could listen to it over and over!!

[lynny1206]

yeah I def. melted a bit when he said thank you to her. lol

[sunflowery12]

such a creeper he was stalking her before they even met lol

[anisete46]

Not very faithfull to J.A., especially in view of the "dream" sequences, catering to modern audiences.

[fymbreethil]

Thank you! I was wondering at tht. I havnt read this book but I didnt think a JA novel wud contain such lurid material

[narutohinta33]

All of her day and night dreams are not in the book. Some are mentioned as a sarcastic comment by Jane Austen comparing how Cathrine is unlike the heroines in the beloved novels Cathrine reads.

[moviegurl16]

isabella is such a slut! and so rude and a liar!

[BrockenAyngelll]

isabella is such a flirt...

[AkiraChan24]

I can't express my feelings for when I first saw that 'dream' scene. Lol, seriously, I stopped breathing, it was so 'un -Jane-Austen' like xD Creepy, but at the same time very gothic and romantic.

[girtania]

this is certainly, janes more "erotic" novels :)

[Rankabee]

"You know my nature: I could never trifle with a man's affections." Yeahhhh.... about that....

[periodmoviesfan]

I don't blame Catherine for that look at 4:50. It says " I do not want you to propose to me because you are ugly and you are a creeper"

[Chutkiiiii]

oh my god!! the way he says "thank you" in 1:44 ,,,,,i could listen to it over and over again! :D

[AkiraChan24]

Oh I agree. His voice is so great to listen to *swoon*

[Nenyatha]

Indeed, he's got a very pleasing voice, warm and soft.. I could listen to this quite some times too- same with the soup eating scene a bit later..

[sallyannerenee]

Thorpe and his sister are both creepers.

[sheslikewoah9]

Thorpe is such a creeper.

[GwendolynGuillotine]

They cut this from the DVD I rented. Darnit Masterpiece theatre!!!!!! Is this what donators pledge to PBS for? Glad you upload this.

[generationYkid]

Mr. Thorpe is so annoying

I think Catherine should have just slapped him in the face and snapped him out of whatever fantasy he had in his head.

[dramaqueen465]

don't apologize that you are leaving thorpe, you won't be missed

[AkiraChan24]

Lol xD I don't like him either

[agostmarch]

I love JANE AUSTEN, no ha nacido escritora q se le compare, ojala algun dia conozca UK....

[ElfoBlanco]

I'm SO SAD, I bought this movie on DVD and it is a cut version!!! Does anyone know how to get the uncut version???

[aewhiteh]

there's an uncut version??

why did i not know this??

not fair!! :(

[SlamuKiller]

Oh my she is exquisite!

[BlagakhsandiEllTesro]

James Morland is so cute~

[GeThAppY01]

he looks like a cave man.. John does.. *ick*

[BeautyVintageRoses]

Neanderthal to be exact

lmao

XD

[frederickbabyyeah]

haha i love that she is secretly fruity

[luverofbroadway]

I am so glad her brother doesn't mary that witch, they would have ended up like all those unhappy couples Austen portrays in her other books, like Mr &Mrs Bennet

[freakoftwilight900]

Or Lydia and Mr. Wickham, yet not so horrible.

[secretglow242]

mr and mrs bennet aren't really "unhappy", they're just a typical married couple from that time period.

[plutogirllovekj]

You must really be daft and completely incapable of understanding sarcastic humor if you really believe that Mr. and Mrs. Bennet are not happy and wholly inlove. I pity you your ignorance!!!!!

[beautifulbutdeadly56]

Was that Thorpe's idea of a marriage proposal, I've heard cheese say better words than that.

[heavenlyhuntress]

haha thats what i was thinking!!!

[RandomScribbless]

Ahhhh...he's so creepy!

[cinnamonstix1990]

i love a man in high boots like tilneys at the beginning!

[LadeyYuna]

I think Catherine is really pretty, even her teeth, they define her, she wouldn't be her without them. Thnx for loading this!! XxX

[rocio421]

She is adorable :)

[MauMaiay]

Blond guy is a major creep.

[jth56ind]

nothing to be ashamed of...aahh! this look! *uhh* ^^
