Mountains and lakes, quiet dirt roads, pretty meadows, rustic barns, beautiful gardens, quaint cottages or elegant houses, lovely fountains, farm animals - if they are anywhere in a film, whether shown for 1 minute or 10, I am certainly watching. Being a city dweller for fifteen years has not swayed my wish to one day live in a charming countryside. I am a country girl at heart! My T13 today are my favorite films that show the English countryside in some or most parts of each of them. Their stories are great and I love them; I also believe the setting adds a lot of impact and appeal:
1. Pride and Prejudice (2005)
2. Ladies in Lavender (2004)
3. Sense and Sensibility (1995)
4. Miss Potter (2006)
5. The Secret Garden (1993)
6. Nanny McPhee (2005)
7. Becoming Jane (2007)
8. Keeping Mum (2005)
9. Harry Potter I - VII of course (2001 - )
10. Vanity Fair (2004)
11. Elizabeth (1998)
12. The Duchess (2008)
13. Atonement (2007)
Bonus: Sleepy Hollow (1999)
