This looks promising. I think Branagh will do fine job with his adaptation. He understands the tone of the novels.
A combo of my favorites! Thank you for the alert, Janet, and a happy Thanksgiving filled with joy and chocolate...
I am looking forward to this. I would watch Judi Dench read the phone book! Well, almost. Dee
What a grouping! This will certainly be worth seeing. Thank you for the alert.
