Subject: RE: Tess of the D'Urbervilles
Sadly, I missed it, but----reading all of the above, I can't wait to get into it !! I just hope it's more authentic than some of the stuff I have seen in recent years, AND just lately, viz. Alex Kingston ,in "Moll Flanders", saying to the captain of the ship about to sail for the American colonies " Aren't you wanted on the bridge, or something ? ", and the recent "The Tudors", featuring what seems to be very un-Tudor-like music played on un-Tudor- period instruments, and the amazing sight,apparently,of tarmacced driveways and central-heating radiators !!
