Love a good period drama

I was at the movies this week and saw the trailer for 'Jane Eyre', one of my all time favorite books. I first read 'Jane Eyre' at University; First Year English. Jane made a great impression on me, as the unconventional heroine and a feminist before her time.  She stands up to those who seek to oppress, judge and harm others.

I haven't read any reviews yet, so I'm hanging my hopes on the trailer...

I'm also looking forward to watching the first episode of Downton Abbey this weekend. The series received rave reviews in the U.K. and again, the trailer certainly piqued my interest.

After finishing season 1 of 'The House of Eliott', I'm hoping that Downton Abbey can fill the void of my rediscovered love of period drama! Or I could always bring out the well-loved BBC Pride and Prejudice DVD's!
