You and two others had given that show a thumbs down, but I had to see Jamie Bamber as Tony. ...but what with his stuttering? Tony was a sporting fellow with a ready tongue.

Of course, I hadn't seen Hornblower at the time I saw the R.E. Grant *Scarlet Pimpernel* (for which I did not care), so I wouldn't have recognized him.<br /><br />~ A.K. ~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871864708546127330.post-69678292806748343572010-06-22T09:58:45.074-07:002010-06-22T09:58:45.074-07:00I haven't seen the musical, but I know that it...I haven't seen the musical, but I know that it is out there! I have a friend who will no doubt know a youtube link to it. I've heard part of "The Falcon in the Dive" and that was pretty cool. <br /><br />I watched part the R.E. Grant "Scarlet Pimpernel" and was not pleased with it, actually. Grant seems far to coarse and animated to really be Percy, and Marguerite seemed all wrong. But, Tony, played by Jamie Bamber was cute. (He didn't capture Tony's character, but he was cute ;)Kirstinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17744662780273718663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871864708546127330.post-63721257838351382502010-06-20T14:38:56.751-07:002010-06-20T14:38:56.751-07:00I adore The Scarlet Pimpernel - the book, the film...I adore The Scarlet Pimpernel - the book, the films, and the musical - are you familiar with the latter? The score is awesome! I also really enjoy the Richard E. Grant Scarlet Pimpernel films - he made a great Percy IMO. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11986319237275869540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871864708546127330.post-3854272139265470262010-06-15T16:16:13.452-07:002010-06-15T16:16:13.452-07:00I love it, Kae!!!

I greatly look forward to seeing future installments, as the premise of the blog is one that very much interests me. <br /><br />If I may be so bold as to put forth a very slight suggestion? Perhaps in the future, review books that you don't adore *quite* so much. It makes for a more interesting review, I think, when there are cons to point out as well as pros.<br /><br />Best of luck on the next post!<br />~The Night Writer.CrazyGentlemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16698247137093051579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871864708546127330.post-8527785661659128912010-06-15T11:46:53.548-07:002010-06-15T11:46:53.548-07:00Wonderful book!

I happen to have two paperback copies of it. <br /><br />Of course the pace is exciting: Most of the story takes place over the span of three days. :)<br /><br />~ A.K. ~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
