where can I find a Gilbert Blythe

“What do you recommend to encourage affection?” “Dancing.”

I know who she is, and if she’s going through her worst right now, I want to go through it with her. She makes me happier than anything I’ve ever known, and if I can have a part in making her happy again that’s all I want to do. That’s all I want to do for the rest of my life.

Pride and Prejudice (2005) trivia: “Costumes are used to show Mr. Darcy’s evolution as he comes to love Elizabeth Bennet and let go of his snobbery. His costume had a series of stages. The first time we see him he’s at Meryton, where he has a very stiffly tailored jacket on, and he’s quite contained and rigid. He stays in that rigid form for the first part of the film. By the time we get to the proposal that goes wrong in the rain, we move to a similar cut, but a much softer fabric. And then later he’s got a completely different cut of coat, not interlined, and he wears it undone. The nth degree is him walking through the mist in the morning, completely undressed by 18th-century standards. It’s absolutely unlikely, but then Lizzie’s in her nightie, so what can you say?” (Jacqueline Durran, P&P Costume designer; via P&P Companion Book/The Telegraph Interview)

ah yes my favourite trope
