I will, if I can figure out how, go to the archives and pull a list of movies that have been discussed here, but would welcome any title suggestions that you might care to make, be they good or particularly bad, in the costume aspect. Brother, will you open another can of worms. The 1940 "Pride and Prejudice." The designer, Adrian, evidently made a conscious decision not to costume in the Jane Austen period. It is highly exaggerated 1830s styles, instead. I have to admit, though, when I asked my costume history students, "what's wrong with this picture," they didn't get it! Let's see, high waist, columnar silhouette to natural waist, full skirts, huge sleeves--well, I must not have done my job very well.
