In case you haven’t noticed, I kinda like to combine books<\/a> and costumes<\/a> a bit. Also, books and costumes and movies<\/a>. So over on Frock Flicks<\/a> for National Book Month, I rounded up my top five and bottom five movies adapted from books<\/a>, with an emphasis on costume.<\/p>\n

There’s some Jane Austen, natch, and a Merchant-Ivory adaption of an E.M. Forester novel, of course. But astute viewers may notice that adaptions of Wuthering Heights<\/em> make it on both sides of the list. OK, it’s one of my very favourite books of all time, so I’m a little critical. That’s what happens when you write an undergrad thesis and an unfinished Master’s thesis on the Bront\u00ebs’ works.<\/p>\n

And I made a certain slightly pretentious costume<\/a> based on Wuthering Heights<\/em> too, which I might just make an ever better, even more awesomely pretentious version of for next year’s Costume College Gala, since the theme is literature…
