0:20 -- ahhhhhh the letters ahh I love this story so stinkin much guys there's a movie :-)
0:29 - SYBIL IS IN THIS

2:20 -- "Gosh, quite a mouthful" <<< Our thoughts exactly, but that's why we love the title. She went for it.
ARE YOU EXCITED?
CAUSE I AM.
COMMENT YOUR EXCITEDNESS.


I'd really love to see this!!! I've never been able to convince myself to read the book but this movie looks good. Lily James in her element.
ReplyDeleteBut the book is goooood! 😱 Read it first. :-)
DeleteOkay! I will try :)
DeleteI AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS YOU HAVE NO IDEA! DOESN'T IT LOOK AMAZING?! =D
ReplyDelete(Note to self don't fangirl in a comment when you're waiting for your conductor to arrive for the early service he will discover you squeaking over a trailer but will quite enjoy it when you show it to him on your phone :P)
I think that's ^ my cue to return after!
THIS LOOKS AMAZING! I STILL HAVE NOT READ THE BOOK. I WILL READ IT NOW. THANK YOU AND GOOD DAY.
ReplyDeleteSame. I need to read the book. Luckily my library has it.
DeleteYou should read it!!!
DeleteI just picked it up from the library! :)
DeleteTHIS LOOKS REALLY GOOD!!!!!! I haven't read the book, but now I really want to!!!!
ReplyDeleteAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this post, Naomi! I'd seen pics of those two main actors in connection with the book, but I hadn't actually verified that a movie was actually in the works -- GAHHH!!!! Now I'll get to re-read the book in preparation for the movie. :)
This trailer looks VERY VERY GOOD AND MOST SATISFACTORY INDEED. Jessica Brown Findlay isn't who I would have cast for Elizabeth, but hey, I'm more than down for it. AND LILY JAMES AND MATTHEW GOODE. YES.
Thanks for this post, again. :) Hope you're doing wonderfully!
*in which I just SMILE cuz Olivia's comments are the best*

oh and also I'm sorry I haven't been commenting lately on here!!! I'm waaaayy behind in the blogsphere right now...
Lollll! It makes me proud that I made you read the book... And now there's a MOOOVIEEEE.
DeleteHAHA Mansfield with love. I used to be into that YouTube series for a while.
Don't apologize! You don't need to comment, I 100% understand.
I really need to read this before the movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI tagged you on my blog Naomi! I hope you like it!

Yessss!!!! I'm thrilled!!!! Coincidently my book club is reading it now (though I'd already read it).
ReplyDeleteTHIS LOOKS SO FREAKING AMAZING.
ReplyDeleteI'm already in love with the hero. *cough* ;P
I KNOW RIGHT
DeleteI haven't even read this yet and the trailer looks exciting. :) In your opinion, would the book be a good candidate for an audiobook? I have more time to listen than read these days, but there are some books which really can't be enjoyed if you don't physically read them.
ReplyDeleteI never listen to audio books so it's hard for me to answer this... The book is basically a compilation of letters so maybe reading? Although on the other hand, getting read letters aloud is also nice. So... No idea. Do what you have most time for!!! 😊 Definitely recommend the book though!
DeleteOkay, having read the book I will now say that Dawsey looks great, Elizabeth looks great, but I'm not sure about Lily James as Juliette! Or 100% sold on Amelia. I'm really excited to see it though! Trying to find release dates for the U.S.....
DeleteTHIS LOOKS TRULY AMAZING. I haven't read the book but I believe I must. Because WOW.
ReplyDeleteSo excited! One of the best trailers I've seen in a long time!
ReplyDeleteHello! (waves) I've been reading your blog for a while and never commented before, but I just had to for this post!!! I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS FILM!!! So glad to find other people who are �� Don't you think Lily James will make an amazing Juliet? And as for Lady Sybil as Elizabeth!!! Pefect!
ReplyDelete-Naomi (yes my name is Naomi too 😉)
P.s. I love your blog! Thank you!
I just finished this book!! It was so good! I can’t wait for the movie. And the cast, so many Downton actors. It looks so good.
