Jack tells grandson Riley a new, twisted version of the Three Little Pigs every time he puts him to bed. But I got a big laugh out of this story told by badbadivy to her son Spiderman.
"Well, the next thing you know, ol' Jed had become a millionaire. His family told him to move away from the hills. They said California was the place he wanted to be," I said. SpiderMan started jumping around and chanting, "California! California!" Spidey's impressed with California. It is where my mother-in-law fortunately lives. I say fortunately because we live 2,000 miles away. Yes, California is a perfect place for a mother-in-law to live when you are living in Tennessee.
"So, what happened?" asked Spidey. "Did they move to California?"
"Yes," I said, barely able to contain my laughter. "They loaded up the truck and they moved to Beverly. Hills, that is."She says the next story will be about a tiny ship that took a fateful trip.

Today at Risky Regencies, Pride and Prejudice 1995 version is being discussed at the Jane Austen Movie Club. It's definitely one of my favorite videos of all time! I think I had it on VHS, then laser disc, and now DVD and I've watched it oh so often.
So, whether you've seen this recently or a long time ago, tell us what you think! Who did you like? Dislike? How did you feel about the script? Costumes? Direction? Historical accuracy? How true to the book did you find it?(tags: JaneAusten, RiskyRegencies, PrideAndPrejudice)
