Mooning About Out Here

I'm long overdue for a bit of a fan flail around here, so... The period piece trailer. It's the most be-au-ti-ful traiiiiiiiiiiiler of allllllllll!!!!!!!!!! Can I get an 'amen'? Because hallelujah, we've got a newbie with stunning costumes, sweeping scenery, familiar British faces, and drama, drama, drama! I saw a picture from Summer in February months and months (and months) ago and the trailer is finally here! Grab your smelling salts!
Are you still breathing? *rapid-fire fanning*

Oh Summer In February... I already love you! Where do I preorder my Kleenex in bulk? But really... Love was made for me and you!
L is for the lovely Emily Browning who I haven't seen since A Series of Unfortunate Events, which is far too long!


O is for the one and only bewildered Cousin Matthew face, punctuated with those icy blues that leave my heart feeling frostbitten! Side note: the soup du jour is salty *SOB* in case you were wondering.


V is very very extra-ordinary scenery and BOOTS in the midst of a pre-drama bromance! In case you missed my days gushing about such things over on Victorian Swag (rest in peace, sweet angel!), a boots is what we call a British man in riding boots in a period piece who is more than welcome to whisk you away to his quiet manor in the woods and, say, father your children i.e. Mr. Darcy is the original boots! *swoon*


E is even more PROXIMITY and ALL CAPS FEELINGS in this scene than I'm probably capable of handling! I'm already having visions of myself splayed out on the theater floor, clutching a box of Milk Duds to my shell-shocked heart.

Weirdly, all signs pointing towards emotional terrorism only makes me want to see this more. I might need to plug into a liquid chocolate IV afterwards, but that's a risk I'm willing to take. How about you? Have you read the book by Jonathan Smith and/or will you be seeing the film? Reaching across the popcorn-strewn floor for my hand? I'll check your pulse if you check mine!

  2. UGH. I've been on the hunt for the book this is based on, but it seems an impossible find. Now I want to read it even more. And, oh, the fan flails this just induced. *heart-clutch*

  3. Ermagherdd!! Moaar period stuffs! Can never have too much of those. I actually had no idea this was coming up so thanks for bringing it to my attention. Emily's gorgeous, and I quite liked her Violet in the Unfortunate Series film.

    And RIP sweet angel, indeed *sniffs*
