Anthony Head was probably the only perfect thing in this movie. :D My attitude towards Wentworth has dampened slightly since writing this though. I still think he's dashing, but he isn't a great Wentworth. I'm glad we agree on the end though. That was just awful. Hey, this version is 7 years old... maybe it's about time for a new version!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08901639281043602191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-54261515916649695482014-07-10T11:15:28.955-04:002014-07-10T11:15:28.955-04:00Well, fully a year later, I have finally watched t...Well, fully a year later, I have finally watched this version! My full thoughts are <a href="http://hamlette.blogspot.com/2014/07/persuasion-2007.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>, but reading back over your review, I'm struck by how we're almost exactly opposite on both Anne and Wentworth. But we agree how good Anthony Head was! And the ending -- really, what were they thinking?Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-76870234238984115082013-10-22T12:40:17.780-04:002013-10-22T12:40:17.780-04:00Oh boy, now I'm intrigued!Oh boy, now I'm intrigued!
