REMINISCING SOME MEMORABLE MOMENTS OF BBC's ADAPTATION OF CLASSICS ON TELEVISION!

Hello Friends,

How are you doing? Did you enjoy reading my last month's post on some of BBC's finest adaptation of classics on the small screen? Though there are many more that I'm yet to watch but whatever few I did, I must confess that I enjoyed them immensely,though the only regret I nurse is how on earth did I miss out on them all this while! I wonder why critics or film analysts only choose to write on new releases, I wish they'd once a while revisit some old classics to give the viewers a glimpse of the glorious past of both cinema and television.

In this month's post, I'll reflect on some of the most memorable romantic conversations from the television series I've watched recently and loved so much that I couldn't help sharing them with you! 

BBC DECODED: THE 'B'RILLIANT 'B'EST OF 'C'LASSICS

Hello Friends,

All those of you ardent fans of Sonyaa's Random Musings would by now well know about my love and fascination for films across all genres and how I enjoy studying and writing my observations on story structures, narrative, dialogues, the casting, direction and the process that goes behind the making of a film. And all this might well stem from the fact that since I aspire to be a film-maker/ story-teller some day, I'm living each day with the hope that an opportunity comes knocking my door and I am the chosen one! And while I am already taking my baby steps in that direction, it's time to get started with this month's post! :)

Jane Eyre: Makes you cry!

Well, lately I realized that my horizon towards film-making just broadened after I lately began watching some dramas by BBC that left me in awe and spell bound as I gradually came to a conclusion that serials in the West were no less than films!! 

With powerful story-telling, good narrative, perfect casting, excellent production values and of course rich literature...I felt they were at par with films! And they too deserved an Oscar (that is if the Academy ever started a segment on awards for television)!! To begin with, I was never really fond of telly serials especially having watched the ones dished out in my country (here's a candid confession about our sketchy plots and stereotyped characters in the daily soaps made here!); but I'm glad that this perception changed for the best!
