Ann In Literature
- Persuasion by Jane Austen
- Anne was the heroine in Jane Austens "Persuasion." I absolutely love this book and the video listed below. Jane Austens last novel and the most mature.
Video clip of Ann's Romance In Persuasion
Persuasion / You're the one
Captain Wentworth: I tried to forget you... I thought I had. Anne Elliot: We do not forget you, so soon as you forget us. Quoted from "amidala2915" aka Angela (One of my dearest friends) :) "starring Amanda Root as Anne and Ciaran Hinds as Capt. Wentworth.After parting eight years before; Capt. Wentworth and Anne meet up again. They fall in love all over again;even though family and society are against them." This looks like a tribute for Bryan Adams,too. I used 2 beautiful love songs of him:) I do hope that everyone likes it. I know it is little bit long,but the patience is `good`:) Please leave your kind comments and/or stars,I really appreciate them:) 1st Song:Nothing I've ever known By:Bryan Adams 2nd Song:Please Forgive Me By:Bryan Adams Credits: BBC & Sony Pictures Classics ======================================= These are purely fan based music videos!!
