I don't think trailors are useless necessarily. But I do see your point I think that a short reel like this for example can have an impact in advertising a film such as this one for people to buy the idea to go and see the full feature.
Dude this is 30 secs and I want to watch the movie vs 1-2 minutes I don't care lol I would much rather see a scene with the two leads and zero plot, than ALL the plot and zero chemistry shown between the leads - seriously could do a better marketing job with $5 than their $5 million bahahaha
His real life accent is 1000x sexier for me personally, that soft Scottish accent melts me every time! Him, David Tennet and now Jack Lowden are my ssxy Scottish trio ❤

Notice the parallels too, in how she is clutched in the grasp of his attention, and they are both falling into momentary silence, which she breaks with a single word (though a whisper, as a foil to a cry). A masterful moment of movie making!
He steps closer and closer to her as he reads the last line. Then glancing up from the book, and looking at her with a steady, piercing gaze, he pauses, and says slowly and deliberately..."of ecstasy".
James Mcavoy a much underrated actor - also apparently a good man- he donated £250,000 to NHS at start of pandemic to buy protective clothing for hospital workers
I don't think he's particularly underrated. I think important people within the industry are very much aware of his talent and appeal. Personally I will never understand how he wasn't nominated for an Oscar in "Split". Playing about 7 or 8 different characters at the same time and each and every character was unique and played consistently throughout the film. He had an idea of how he was going to play each of the personalities and once decided upon, didn't deviate from that character's personality at any time. He even had one personality (the actor) being played by a different personality, so that personality could get information out of his therapist. Just astonishing.
Bodice ripper 😏 Wow, I haven't heard THAT expression in a long while. But I think I'd be ripping open more than my bodice if that stunner was standing in front of me. 🥵
"Bodice ripper". Wow, I haven't heard that expression in a while. But I think my bodice wouldn't be the only thing I'd be ripping open with that stunner standing in front of me.
@@チャン兄田 Okay, calm down. How do you know it's his only talent? This man has a lot more to admire than just his talent as an actor. And the fact that he is objectively beautiful, doesn't detract from his overall talent, nor does it mean we can't admire the view. 😊
I first saw him in Penelope. The writing’s not the great in it but he was charming as hell. The X-Men prequels hooked me completely because his performance was compelling and versatile. He and Hugh Jackman are my favorites.
"I cannot get it on, it is TOO disturbing" Then the mutter of "Mm-mmm..." Then the way he swaggers SLOWLY towards her, as he reads the most graffic and sexiest, suggestive comment, and looks at her as he reads..." Of Ecstacy..." ❤
Makes you wonder why most ppl cannot seem to flirt like this anymore... oh t'is tragic, my dear... Can you imagine? I know I'd melt just a little 🫠 lol! ❤😅 And I definitely have to watch this movie again. One of my all-time favorite period films, especially as the actor choices and the chemistry between them were perfect!
I had seen James in other movies, prior to Becoming Jane, but it was his delivery of this dialogue that really made me sit up and take notice. Equally so, the scene in Atonement, when he's tearing up as he looks at the little dead girls on the ground, is absolutely masterful.
That's such a happy movie. Beautiful set/ costume design as well. It's the comfort food of movies. Basically had it on repeat after my hysterectomy. It's just light, cute, happy, and about love. Guaranteed happily ever after. Removed enough from reality that it doesn't remind you of your life, the world, and all its problems. Humorous. Just not stressful to watch, you know?... Sometimes you need that. Plus, I love it when the quirky wallflower has her dreams come true. As a quirky girl myself, I can relate. Obviously, I don't have a pig nose, but some extra happiness in your day and a reminder of unconditional love is never a bad thing.
Seriously, guys should try this is as a pick up line at the bar and see how it works in 2024. Do you think the literary genre is as captivating and now as it was then or is it the delivery of the text or is it the eye contact. The most significantly it probably has to do with her knowledge of the literary work to begin with. I dare you to try it in the 21st century....
Time and place. At a nightclub when no one can hear you and the other person is having fun with their friends - no. If at the back end of a book store or library and he isn’t a complete stranger, it could. If just using those eyes and respectful but suggestive body positioning, even in a crowded space, also possible.
And neither of them are English! I swear Brits sound better doing an American accent than Americans do. It's because that kind of elocution is practically non-existent in native speakers.
This is what I call pure perfection; acting, the pauses, the look, tone of voice, each and every movement into perfection of every detail. Daaamn make this scene trailer and it would be nb1 movie in theatres already😁❣️❣️❣️
Except she didn't write it. He was reading a book about Natural History, written by a man named Gilbert White. He was a naturalist, an ecologist and ornithologist.
@@rexibhazoboa7097 The full title of the book is written right there on the cover. I'd find it hard to believe he wouldn't know that since he was actually holding the book. What he said was, "I've been looking at your book of the wood. Mr. White's Natural History". The full title of the book is "Natural History and Antiquities of Selborne", written by Gilbert White. She was already aware of the full title of the book because she owned the book. So for him to read out the full title would be redundant. Completely unnecessary. That's why he shortened it to simply "Natural History" because he knew she knew which book he was talking about. An example of this would be say, the full title of "Noah Webster's American Dictionary of the English Language", which is a mouthful. But if you just say "Webster's Dictionary" or simply "Webster's", people automatically know which book you're referring to. Right?
I agree, I don't quite understand his natural Scottish accent. This is why I haven't been to Ireland nor Scotland. Wales is slightly better to understand but again, most speak too fast. 😂😂
Man!! how intense a scene can be with two extraordinarily good-looking people fully clothed.. no touch.. just intensity of their gaze... God have mercy! James my man!! please release some audiobooks
Oh Lordy this man gas always had my heart, but his real life accent is 1000x sexier for me personally, that soft Scottish accent melts me every time! Him, David Tennet and now Jack Lowden are my sexy Scottish trio ❤
this video really hit different and was (of course) exactly what i needed to hear. after our session i was getting bits here and there of my end state but i told myself “DON’T SETTLE. this is not my end. keep on faithfully returning to the end and what your heart truly desires and don’t look back.” much love and light to you zack! and the japanese subtitles are awesome!!
he's playing a smart but penniless law student who is a bit of a rake (player) so he's teasing her, as she wants (does) write stories and he's intent on getting her to 'live' more.. ok for men of the time but not for women.. they elope and are madly in love but for a wicked mean uncle their lives may have been different.. it is quite a story by Jane, and has some roots in a brief romantic encounter with a real life young man who may have captured Jane's heart.. well worth watching
