19th century movies Where can a get a good list of British 19th century movies. I love Jane Austin adaptions like Emma, Sense & Sensibility, Pride & Prejudice, Etc. I have been searching online, but have had little luck. Any recommendations?

Well, actually there is a new adaptation of "Pride and prejudice" comeing to theatres very soon. I saw the preview for it a few weeks ago! It sounds like something you might enjoy if you don't know about it already. ]
Maybe in a local library you can look up her name on a computer and see what pops up? Actually, A & E made a special on Pride & Prejudice like 10 years ago, and I rented that from I think blockbuster...and it was really good. So look for that if you can... it's long and I had to watch it in stages (lol) but I really liked it. Some others I can recommend definetly as far as old movies go are Wuthering Hieghts, Rebecca (AMAZING book & moving, very suspenseful), and Jane Eyre. They are all movies, and all books... I very highly suggest you check these out. They're not by Jane Austin, but they are along the lines of what you're looking for. Rebecca is a little bit more updated (takes place in early 20th century, but its still really neat). ]
Not really my area of expertise but I have to recommend A Room with a View. It's based on E.M. Forster’s 1908 novel of the same name and is a really wonderful love story about breaking past the stiff edwardian manners and ideas of a proper ways to behave. ]
