Austen's Bad Boys

A tribute to the men we love to hate.

A better title would have been "The Bad Boys of Period Drama" because the video has clips of 15 different men - many of which are not Austen characters, but all of Austen's bad boys are in here too. These men range from men with poor motives, to men who are downright evil. Hope you enjoy.

Movies:
Persuasion
Mansfeild Park
Emma
Sense & Sensibility (1995 & 2008)
Northanger Abbey
Pride and Prejudice (1995 & 2005)
The Count of Monte Cristo
The Scarlet Pimpernel (1982)
The Tenant of Wildfell Hall
Becoming Jane
The Inheritance

Music:

Jane Austin didn't write "Count of Monte Cristo" :)

[Koschnitzgirl]

@stompaxeree clearly....which is why I explain that more than half the clips don't actually come from Austen stories in video explaination :)

Haha this is so great! Great idea, and excellent execution!

[Koschnitzgirl]

@SappyRomantic ;) thanks so much! I figured the heros have enough of their own videos right??

[JaneAustenfan83]

[Koschnitzgirl]

@JaneAustenfan83 thanks! This first time I heard the song on the radio the idea to do this popped in my head and then it was like - i HAVE to do that! Glad you enjoyed

Not all Austen's bad boys, but bad boys nonetheless and so much fun to watch! Good job!

I play Wickham in an upcoming play, and this is an awesome tribute- i listen to the song when i get into character haha. Good video!

[kateclaudia]

@Koschnitzgirl: yeah I love that show it is beyond explanation as to how much I laughed whilst watching it!! Yes you really sympathise with Wickham in it, but I just LOVED the casting of Mr.Collins - absolutely hysterical :)

[WoundedWolfgirl]

Oh my goodness, this is just...ridiculously awesome. I salute you!

I've been meaning to make a vid for Jane Austen's bad boys set to You're So Vain, because that song perfectly describes, like, every Austen villain, but I take a freakin' year to make vids. And it's not 'cause my vids are crazy epic, either.
