It's Christmas time at Thornfield and Jane and Rochester have invited the entire cast to join them for an evening of games and merriment! When a blizzard snows them in and the guests can't stand another round of over-the-top charades, Jane suggests they all exchange the gifts they bought for Secret Santa. I wonder what wonderful cadeaux are in store!

Happy Holidays, everyone! It's a short one this week since today's adaptation was less than 30 minutes long. Don't worry though, if the gypsy scene is your favorite, then there's lots to look forward to. We were so thrown off by how short this episode was that we completely forgot to rate the adaption. So for those of you who are dying to know where this version ranks in the lineup, here are our scores:
Piper: 4/10 Family Prayers Lillian: 4/10 Donna Reeds For many (like Piper) Meet Me in St. Louis is a holiday classic, while for others (like Lillian) it's a new movie full of buck wild situations and comical surprises. Regardless of our familiarity going in, watching and discussing this film left us both smiling. I think we can take on 20 men, don't you? We decided to dedicate our first character analysis to our gurl in the attic: Bertha. This week, Lillian and Piper discuss how Bertha is portrayed in the novel and how her character has been interpreted over many years and adaptations. As is evident by the length of this episode, though her time on the page is brief, Bertha's presence in the novel is impactful, she haunts the story before we truly know her and turns the world upside down once we do. Bertha's episode from the On Eyre season of the Hot and Bothered Podcast can be found here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2XXsYC5ICY6rpbKBhgxSZB?si=3th0VtleR-Gk7cKP3E-I0w Bertha's Disney Princess Song by Shipwrecked on YouTube can be watched here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XURa7PEUYz4 |
