People who read Ballet Shoes as children: when, if ever, did you start to see Dr. Smith/Dr. Jakes?
Over the weekend![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
breadandroses and I watched the 2007 movie with Emma Watson as Pauline, which makes the pairing quite clear, in a campy-positive manner we quite enjoyed. The film takes some rather extreme liberties with the character of Mr. Simpson, and assassinates the character of Winifred Bagnall, but I really enjoyed getting glimpses of period musical and Shakespeare productions. As fans of Hustle, we also enjoyed seeing Marc Warren (even though he apparently can't shed his Danny Blue accent - unless grammar schools have Matrons?) and Adrian Lester (who does a reasonably good American accent here.)
I'm obsessively refreshing Vividcon playlists for links, so there will probably be songvid recs this week. For the moment, though, I invite everyone to revisit the delights of November by watching the following vid by SDWolfpup:
