The Reluctant Widow Part 1

Only two of the novels of Georgette Heyer have been filmed. The Reluctant Widow is the only English film. The other one, Arabella, is a German film.
I hope that you enjoy the film.
Please, visit some critical sites about Islam and inform yourself about it.

Someone should make Regency Buck, Devils Cub, and Venetia!, I am so surprised that the BBC has never made adaptations of Georgette Heyer, their is such a wealth of material, and though I love Jane Austen it has been done to death (it's death being the Keira Knightly Pride and Prejudice..WHAT A MESS AND RUINATION!)

I would love that too.

I've been dying to see this for years! Thankyou so much!

[miclinicus]

It wasn't easy to get it.

The upsetting thing is, that after this film which Georgette Heyer saw, the author herself put some sort of clause on her books that mean they can never be adapted into fim again. All becuase of this awful film.. Sad Times.

Regency Buck is my fav!!!

[GygaxGirl]

This is a pretty corny rendition. Missing lots of details that Heyer wrote of. Someone should re-do it. No one writes like she did.

You MUST read The Grand Sophy , Arabella and Friday Child. Her best works you'll love them

@MRDEREVKO So true! And if they could have Andrew Davies adapt them, it would be one of the best things to ever happen! ^^

I've just discovered Georgette Heyer (I'm 23, how is this possible?!), and I LOVE her books so far!! She has wit, like Jane Austen, tongue-in-cheek like Mark Twain & situational comedy. I've read Frederica and Cotillion so far; I'm going to have to read all of them now, especially The Grand Sophie & Black Sheep, thanks to your comments. I thought no one could top Lord Alverton, but then Freddy came along! Grrr, why can't romance be as good in reality as we imagine it to be?

@dobbie340 I'm curious, where did you find this information? It's most interesting.

[Dooby1580]

These old shades and Black Sheep would be great as films too
