"Either you are in each other's confidence and have secret affairs to discuss, or you are conscious that your figures appear to the greatest advantage by walking. If the first, I should get in your way. If the second, I can admire you much better from here." ~Pride and Prejudice "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, It's movie night!! Is it just me or do you love a Jane Austen movie, too? What better way to start this movie night series than with Pride and Prejudice? It's one of my all-time favorites. Have you ever seen it? If not, I highly recommend it. OTOH, my son would mention so many other possibilities. Harry Potter. Star Wars. All those superhero ones. So the idea is to plan fun movie nights in advance that you could love watching by yourself, with friends or with family. And layer the hygge so that it envelops you. Movie + hot chocolate + comfy clothes + fuzzy pillows on the cozy couch + soft lights or candles. Give yourself the lush experience and create a moment that will later become a treasured memory. Even if "later," is tomorrow or the next time you watch a movie or light a candle. Have a wonderful time! Love, Jeanine P.S. If you want more ways to hygge your winter experience, read my book,

Kemkem, I didn't use to like period movies, either. In fact, I remember going to one with my friends, many years ago, and I was bored! I just didn't get it.

I am still catching up to Netflix and chill. But if I see a Jane Austen movie on cable, I stop to watch it.

I haven't watched this movie either, though I have taken Jane Austen in my English class in university. Will have to watch it one of these January days.

Oh, I hope you do, Lily! In general, I am sure the books are better, but for P&P, I actually like the movie version best.

If you ever do watch the movie, I'd choose the version that has Donald Sutherland and Keira Knightley. And absolutely, hot chocolate will make it even better. In fact, I think I have watched it at least once with hot chocolate!
