I know I probably shouldn't say this, but there's so many screen versions of Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights. Why can't someone make Shirley or Villette? (isn't there a silently Shirley, but that's it?) The books are no way as popular as the other too, but why not?
ReplyDeleteThey've done North & South so we know the "trouble at t'mill" stuff can be transfered to tv. Plus if they used Richard Armitage, I'd definitely watch it! (yes, ladies? Can I get a 'hell yeah'?).
Villette is quite internal, but I think for the length of a film there's plenty of material. Unless it upsets the Belgians?
We welcome any project which is connected to the Brontës, but that doesn't mean that we don't agree with with you.
ReplyDeleteA script for Shirley was in the works a while ago. See these two links: http://bronteblog.blogspot.com/2007/01/shirley-movie.html and http://bronteblog.blogspot.com/2007/01/more-on-shirley-project.html Maybe it will one day see the light.
As for Villette, many BrontëBlog readers have voiced the same opinion throughout the years: that in able hands it would make a good film/miniseries too.
It looks as if the Gaskell phenomenon has taught producers nothing. Gaskell was virtually unknown for most people when her novels began to be adapted for the screen and yet they were a success.
